Easy application process - customer focused

Couldn’t be happier. Application processed quickly and funds released within a few days. Had reason to change payment date recently and it was all done immediately via their online portal. Have had absolutely no issues at all and they’ve been a pleasure to deal with. Reviewed on: 1st June 2023

Review of the Policy Expert, Car insurance:

Immediate cover - fantastic value

I won’t bore you to death with a lengthy review, but the company came recommended by a friend. Quick quote, great level of cover and by far the best value on the market. My renewal was also cheaper than the year before which was something I wasn’t expecting. I’d recommend this company without hesitation. Reviewed on: 15th September 2022

Review of the Sainsburys Bank, Car insurance:

Disgusting attitude - lost a customer

Reasonable price for taking the policy a year ago. Have always paid car insurance monthly and deal was appealing for the double nectar points as do most of food and fuel shopping there. Renewal comes through 40% higher even though no claims... and to rub it in they told me that I possibly couldn’t afford to pay the extra £10 a month for the premium so they could only offer a lump sum payment option to me?! How condescending - I could quite easily afford to pay the price upfront but I shopped around and got a better deal with my bank (Lloyds) - they quoted literally pennies more than my current policy and loads of other extras included. When I rang Sainsbury’s to cancel, they didn’t ask why. Didn’t offer to haggle on a quote. They just told me they’d send proof of NCD in the post. I made a comment that I got a good quote with Lloyds and the person on the phone couldn’t have cared less. I get the impression they have a group of people they don’t want anymore and I’m one of them. Policy cancelled. New insurance set up. Plus once my double points offer finishes on 9th June I will not spend another penny with them. I’ll do my shopping elsewhere. They clearly don’t want my custom. Reviewed on: 21st May 2020
