Might be the Cheapest insurance but the customer journey is shocking. Paid for my insurance three weeks in advance, received one email asking for additional information by 20th January. On the 20th January 5 days because my policy even started i received an email to say my policy will be cancelled on the 28th January with no option to rectify this. I have since rang this insurance three times as i keep getting asked for more information and sent very misleading information. They’ve charged me an additional £80 and feel like this isn’t the end of there never ending requirement and badly worded scare mongering emails. God help me if i do have an accident in the next year as i dread having to deal with them. Please choose another provider i have never had this many issues in the 15 years i have had car insurance. Absolute jokes! Read more Read less

    They do noy pay out

Refused to pay for shower leak because I run remote business from a shed. Notice that their positive reviews relate to how easy it is to buy, not how good they are on actually paying out. Yes, sure, they are excellent at taking your money, not so much at actually proving the cover they are supposed to provide. Go somewhere else. Read more Read less

    Policy Experts - Absolute sharks.

They took my money and insured my car AFTER I disclosed the modifications on the car I have just bought. THEN THEY CANCELLED the insurance 2 and a half weeks later because they say it has too many modifications. I did all the back ground checks before hand on the car, the car was completely clear and was bought from a reputable dealer. 2 and a half weeks later ie today. They ring me up and tell me that THEY are cancelling the insurance because the car has too many modifications. Even though they accepted it at the outset online when I paid for it. They are now charging me £79 from the initial deposit and first months premium that came out yesterday for cancelling the policy. They said it does not matter that they are cancelling, I still have to pay the cancellation fee. I mean, what can you say, I am just gobsmacked. They just gave the usual, its in the terms and conditions, I asked the girl how many times do you read the TnCs to which she replied I don't, but I would accept them if they were in there. Also as if that isn't bad enough. Any new insurance, I now have to select yes I have had insurance declined or cancelled in the last 3 years (through no fault of my own which puts the cost up). I have just been on the insurer admirals website and their site said to ring them when I input the modifications, as it would not let me carry on. That is what Policy Experts website should have done, stopped me and forced me to ring them and question me about the car. Admiral were happy with the Modifications when I spoke to them, as I disclosed exactly what Policy Expert had done. Not take the money, insure me for 2 and a half weeks, cancel it and charge me £79. #PolicyExpert @policyExpert Read more Read less

I am thoroughly disappointed with Policy Expert UK and Trinity Claims. Despite submitting valid claims on my policy, every single one has been denied without any clear explanation or reasoning, leaving me completely in the dark about their decision-making process. Their customer service is equally frustrating. They fail to call back at the agreed times, don’t respond to messages in their portal, and treat you as though you’re being dishonest just for filing a claim. The interactions feel condescending and unprofessional, especially if you happen to have a foreign-sounding name. For non-native speakers, there is no patience or consideration either, which only adds to the feeling of being dismissed and unvalued. I would strongly advise against using this company if you’re looking for support and transparency when it matters most. This has been a deeply disappointing experience with no accountability in sight. Read more Read less

I had a fine experience with Policy Expert but didn’t have any warnings when policies would be renewed. Therefore I was automatically renewed a number of times. The first first was fine, price rose by £5 per year. The second renewal they put it up by £50 with no warning! I cancelled straight away. Read more Read less

    Customer services

    They have always been helpful when a question has arisen. Although I have had no accidents for many years.
