My car was written off by a marshmallow customer who admitted liability, A settlement figure was agreed but payments to me continually fail. I believe this can only be happening if they are insolvent or an employee is stealing my money. They are virtually impossible to contact and couldn’t care less about their liabilities.

Refuses to cancel and refund my policy, can't reach

1
Someone made a false claim about my car being in an accident. I submitted photos and videos of my car, in perfect condition, but now they are refusing to cancel and refund my car insurance even though I sold it due to this false claim. It is impossible to get ahold of a human and they don't have a contact phone number available. You have to use their "live" chat box, but I've been put on "hold" for over 3 hours now, being completely ignored. A poorly run company clearly scamming people who chose their plan for their cheap rate. Never using them again. Reviewed on: 7th February 2024

Avoid at all costs! Scam

1
Avoid at all costs! Long story but they are trying to scam me out of more money by charging me extra on my premium mid contract and I have had to reported them to the Financial Ombudsman's. The good reviews you see must be AI bots, the customer service is like speaking to a brick wall all on online chat. They accused me of miss information and I have proof that I had given it to them so they don't have a leg to stand on. I paid a lot of money for a dreadful service, they interrogate you and try to catch you out rather than help you. Reviewed on: 6th February 2024

An absolute joke of a company

1
First of all please do not use this insurance company just because it may save you a few pounds. It is not worth the hassle, no contact centre for any query, they say 24 hour emergency number that's a lie as it will just tell you to go to live chat this is only open mon-fri 9-4pm. The whole ordeal of actually reporting an issue or getting an answer to a question will take days by email. The extras you add on at the end of making a new claim will be via a third party and they tell U to contact them if U crack your windscreen or something and then they will say contact Marshmallow. The only thing they are 5* on is taking your payment.. Absolute garbage stay away. Don't believe me try and ring and press every single option there is and let me know if you ever get hold of an actual person on the telephone. Reviewed on: 5th February 2024

Trying to help a Ukrainian

1
Trying to help a Ukrainian whom we hosted I took out a motor policy for him. He has returned to Ukraine, does not speak English, is uncontactible and is not returning to UK. I cannot get Marshmallow to cancel his policy, cant speak to anyone on this matter and the keep billing him monthly since we sold his car in November. Marshmallow have taken out the new increased January payment and say he has to authorise the cancellation of policy - Marshmallow cant think out of the box - do they just continue billing him. I have asked for telephone contact - unbelievable!! Reviewed on: 1st February 2024
