Review of the Saga, Car Insurance:

Best insurer yet

5
I use my car abroad a lot and Saga are the only insurer I have found to offer the cover I want. Reviewed on: 11th September 2020

They are the best choice

5
I took out my car insurance through saga because of the three year fixed price at aged 69 car insurance tends to go upward after 70 so fixing the price seemed a good idea and it certainly looks that way judging by prices this year . Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Expensive

Very expensive for pensioners '!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reviewed on: 22nd August 2023

How do you speak to a representative

1
Dreadful experience. At present I am trying to speak to a representative. My phone is showing 42 minutes. This is the 4th time I have attempted to get through.I phoned at 8 30am when they first open and was informed that by a recorded message that we are extremely busy and there would be a 20 minute wait. They are Impossible to make contact with Reviewed on: 21st August 2023

Superb customer service

5
Always able to speak to someone and almost always without a long delay. They care about customer service as they want you to review them after each phone call. Innovative 3 year fixed price motor insurance product. Reviewed on: 18th August 2023

Most annoying car insurance company I've ever come across

1
My car was hit while it was parked. The accident was witnessed. The driver admitted liability for the accident. Details were exchanged. Having fully comprehensive insurance and wanting my car repaired ASAP I started a claim on my insurance company (SAGA) giving them all the details and proceeded to get three quotes. After about two days I received a telephone call from the third party's insurer who agreed that their client had admitted liability, and would like to deal directly with me. Because I had already started the claim process I said I preferred to claim via SAGA. Quotes were sent to SAGA. I heard nothing from SAGA, no phone call, no e-mail. After about a week I called them, a frustrating experience taking far too long, in which they blamed some other department for the delay, and did precisely nothing. This cycle continued for about another 7 weeks. No communication at all from SAGA. My recommendation, don't use SAGA for anything. Reviewed on: 28th July 2023

Disgusting cancellation policy. Be warned

1
Please don't use this company. Their cancelation fees are nothing short of robbery. Customer service is non existent. They are charging me 25% of my annual policy to cancel. I'm only 2 months into it Try a better firm that treats customers properly Reviewed on: 15th June 2023

Card renewal - bad practice

1
2 male operatives didn't give the correct information and the female operative tried her best but her boss has not deemed my complaint important enough to get back to me. I received a letter from Saga stating my credit card had expired and to ring them with new details. On giving the details of my card, immediate payment for my car insurance was taken from my bank account.At no time was I told this would happen and no one would cancel the payment which was not due for 3 another 3weeks. I was told to cancel it through my bank .They told me the payment was ",pending "so it couldn't be done and to go back to Saga. This practice should be made clear in their letter or by the operative before taking my card details. It has caused me financial embarrassment and disappointment as well 2hrs on the phone trying to deal with this..I will not be renewing my insurance with Saga next year for sure Reviewed on: 25th April 2023

Disappointed with Customer Service and how they dealt with my Insurance policy Reviewed on: 12th April 2023

Scam

1
It's a disgrace these fraudsters are allowed to operate in the UK. It's a torture of an experience trying to get a settlement payment out of them and it can drag on for years. Every time you call them its a 30 minutes wait for someone to pick up. Every time I speak to someone there I take their name, but the next time I call - it's a different person on the phone and they have no idea who the previous person is and there is no record on the system and they don't know what is going on and I have to explain everything from scratch. And they promise to take care of it, but then they hang up and it's back to square one: nothing happens and nobody knows what is going on. Reviewed on: 6th February 2023
