Will never use SAGA again Had an "incident" where a driver ran a red light, cutting across me, and I slammed into her at about 40mph. My VW Polo worked brilliantly - crumple zo... Read more Reviewed on: 6th March 2025

Superb

Amazing product, staff always do their upmost to support the customer and saga have been brilliant during these difficult times Reviewed on: 29th July 2020

Behaving like a back street tin-pot insurer

I'm sure many people have had a similar experience. Car accident, not my fault, car needs repairing. Should be straightforward yes? Especially with a top drawer company like Saga with a 5 star rating? Don't you believe it. Incomplete repairs, quibbling over rectification of incomplete repairs, multiple phone calls to people trained in the art of obfuscation and sloping shoulders. I've been with Saga for years, never had a claim and now I'm being treated like the dirt on the... Reviewed on: 19th March 2020

Amazing incompetence... Chocolate Tea-Pot!

We have received a letter today acknowledging my telephone complaint made in DECEMBER 2017, asking if I would like to follow it up? Today is FEB 22nd 2020!! We have long since gone to a professional insurance company, and will steer away from your door. All the pensioners taking out new policies, at what they think to be very good premium, should consider the most important issue of 'if they have to make a claim' what is this companies track record like? Read the feedback, and d... Reviewed on: 22nd February 2020

Awful company

Company ok until you have to claim then you will regret ever going with them. Worse insurance company i have ever been with & I'm 61. 4 months to resolve & I'm out of pocket by over a £1000 in an accident i was totally innocent in. Pay a bit extra & go with a company more competent & more professional just in case you need to claim. Reviewed on: 21st January 2020

Couldn't find my dad's car

My father was involved in an accident. The day after the accident we gave SAGA all the information they needed and Saga arranged for the car to be collected the next day, which it was. Monday came and my dad's curiosity car turned up, but the garage that was going to repaired said they hadn't got the car - alarm bells were ringing by this point. A tow truck had come to collect the car on Friday the day after the accident and I'd handed them the key because it was expected. Forty... Reviewed on: 17th December 2019

Can't issue a letter of Indemnity in 24 hours or even 4 days - shocking....

On the 5.10.2019 I was stopped for no Insurance and issued with a ticket to produce within 7 days. Reference my Schedule at the time advised XYZ (reg Number) - however you have issued the certificate in 123, vehicle therefore shows as uninsured and not on MIB or polica data base. I Request an updated certificate (You can't back date them)(unbelievable) which shows cover from 6.10 - This is no use as I have to prove cover was in place and on that plate on the 5th or prior too. ...

Can beat other quotes by a mile!

We were getting really high car insurance renewal quotes, and tried Saga who beat them all hands down. We didn’t sign up straight away after the quote as we went on holiday, and when we got back the quotes were all even higher, even the Saga one. But when we phoned them they honoured their initial quote even though it had expired. It was great customer service. Reviewed on: 1st September 2019

Almost double the cost of the next nearest quote.

They say loyalty doesn’t pay, well that’s certainly my experience with Saga. I have been with them for 4 years and seen a steady increase in premiums on each annual renewal, but this year it was ridiculous. I have had no claims and this year the cost has jumped from £845 to a whopping £1284. I asked them to check if there had been an error with the underwriter who confirmed this was the new premium. I got competitive quotes from Direct Line, Privilage, John Lewis and NFU, and am... Reviewed on: 18th August 2019
