Review of the Post Office, Car Insurance:

AVOID! Useless and extortionate.

Useless in the event of a claim - will palm you off to underwriters who are equally as useless and nothing will materialise from your claim. Despite having up to 3 years NCB and going into my 4th year insuring with PO, they thought it would be acceptable to increase my monthly premium from £128 to £266! Absolute p*ss-take and a smack in the face to a loyal paying customer of multiple years. Avoid! Reviewed on: 22nd September 2024

Excellent service

Would highly recommend. Sorted out easily and customer service was excellent. Prices were low and had no issues Reviewed on: 1st October 2017

Helpful During Claim

Excellent service throughout the claims process. Easy to contact and explained everything clearly and simply. Would use again. Reviewed on: 30th September 2017

Very cost effective especially after over 50's discount

If you are new to Post Office and over 50, they guarantee to beat your quote or give you the difference and an extra £50. They have good customer service too. Reviewed on: 28th September 2017

competitive

Competitive pricing, easy to speak to on the phone Reviewed on: 5th September 2017

Very good customer service

Although I have cancelled my car insurance policy with the Post Office for many reason ...I can't fault the customer service I received this afternoon from a gentleman called Scott. It came to a mutual agreement. Shirley from Bristol Reviewed on: 4th May 2017

Cancellation car sale

The cancellation charge is only £1 less than the remaining charges. Inequitable and not an encouragement to use this company again. NEVER! Reviewed on: 17th February 2017

Waste of time

Firstly whilst completing the on line quote application my car registration (Been insured elsewhere for 8 years!) couldn't be found. Then when I filled in details of my car it insisted it had automatic gears which it hasn't and finally when clicked to get quote it said there was a problem and to get the quote click continue - this took me back to the start with all data erased. Forget it! Useless waste of time Reviewed on: 26th August 2016

They Guarantee to beat your renewal quote ...... but when they don't !!!!!

Letter received from Post Office July 2016 - We Guarantee to Beat your renewal quote by at least £50. Sounded too good to be true but ... I rang. Went through the whole car insurance questions and their quote was over £200 MORE than my renewal quote - so I said I would email my renewal quote and they could then confirm they would match and give me £50. SURPRISE, surprise ..... they informed me I had to sign up for their policy at the price quoted and then send in the documents and they would scrutinise them to confirm it was a like for like and then refund me the £250 plus. I wasn't falling for that one! BEWARE promises they probably won't keep! Reviewed on: 10th August 2016

Reasonably priced car insurance

I have used this company for car insurance for the last few years. They are always competitively priced and offer hire cars. I have always been able to reach them when needed. Reviewed on: 3rd August 2016

Fabulous

Wonderful customer service, and a great deal for the over 50s! Reviewed on: 1st August 2016
