Must give two stars even though customer support was friendly and responsive
2
I've had Lloyds Car Insurance for 2 years and wanted to review for the third year. The price suddenly jumped substantially (from around £400 to £550 yearly) and I called them to ask why, because in Internet the price to join is much lower. Was told that this is for renewal, but they may cancel my insurance and I will do the new one with them for the Internet price. That's what I did. Then I discovered that my account was charged twice with the price of insurance (around £400+£400). I must admit that the company customer service is great and they responded to every my call and email. But the investigation lasted 2 months and cost me a lot of time, I sent about 10 emails and had about 15 phone calls. Finally after two months they told me that I created two insurances with them and they will cancel one of them, but I will pay cancellation fee + charge for the period the second insurance was active: £85. So I agreed because I did not want to waste more time and nerves. I lost altogether £85. I cannot understand how same car with same owner can be insured twice in same insurance company on exactly the same date. But I have no more time to investigate and if you will decide to have Lloyds Car Insurance for your car, you will tell me the result of your experience.

Received all money back for flight tickets for all my family due to illness
5
I bought their travel insurance just 3 days before traveling, as I suddenly discovered that travel insurance from my bank account is not provided anymore. Then 1 day before my travel with my family from London, UK to Vancouver, Canada my daughter became ill with high temperature (39.7). I had to cancel the trip altogether, as my daughter was ill for more than a week. I opened claim with CoverForYou and after I emailed them the letter from my GP confirming my daughter's illness and recommendation not to travel, they refunded to me the whole price of the flight tickets for my family which was £917.00 in total. They have not asked any additional questions and within 5 days the payment was transferred into my bank account. So I do recommend this company as honest, quickly responding and providing friendly service.
