Saga Car insurance reviews (9439)

Run of the mill

3
Reasonably easy to deal with but we found that after the first year the pricing became very uncompetitive. We have since moved on Reviewed on: 6th September 2017

Excellent service

5
I insured 2 cars with Saga and achieved brilliant value for money coupled with a low excess. I tried to insure my daughter's car as well but she is only 34 and they only insure those aged 50+ nevertheless I really liked dealing with them because there was no series of menus to go through and I was immediately connected to an advisor via an 0800 number. Good people! Reviewed on: 1st September 2017

Very poor service

1
I still have an ongoing claim from nearly 2 years ago. After being shunted from behind, I ended up stranded at a motorway service station, on my own, spending nearly 6 hours on the phone trying to get something sorted. I kept getting passed from one department to another and each person told me something different. I didn't think it could get any worse, but it did. The whole claim has been an absolute shambles and still isn't sorted out. Never again. Reviewed on: 31st August 2017

SIMPLE CLICK

I was with Privilege Car insurance for many years and felt very loyal to a extend never question their renewal premium ! My wife every year reminded me to shop around and I did for my last renewal. Reviewed 5 websites and Saga came across user friendly !!! Reviewed on: 15th August 2017

cheap quote.

Easy to deal with. They offered unlimited time in mainland europe so don't need to worry about going over 30 days Reviewed on: 2nd August 2017

watch out £50 fee to end early

3
changed my car, saga wanted to double my insurance. In order to cancel the policy I got charged a £50 admin fee. (yes, it was in the print, but I consider that excessive and won't use them again). It was still cheaper to pay the fee and take out insurance with another company Reviewed on: 18th July 2017

Car accident

3
I recently had a car accident, I was turning right when a young driver overtook me and crashed into my car. I am now informed that I am 30% to blame. Apparently as you are turning right, as well and noticing oncoming traffic and the road you are turning into, you need to be looking into your rear view mirror. As a driver of almost 50 years experience and with no previous claims, i know that this is impossible to do. I have only been blessed with one pair of eyes. However, my insurance company knows better. So, if you are reading this, beware, when actually in the process of turning right you need to be looking in three different directions at once. Also, the other driver immediately admitted liability both to me and to my insurance company. Doesn't matter. I am still 30% at fault. Reviewed on: 15th July 2017

They won't let go

Initial quote was low, but the renewal was way high, when challenged the reposted was well price isn't everything." Really?" Reviewed on: 4th July 2017

Dont fit a safety device

I have had quote from SAGA in the past and they have always been reasonable but not the cheapest. I recently had rear parking sensors fitted and they quoted £500 more because if manufacturers modifications. Make your own mind up. instead of SAGAs £740 I paid £294. Reviewed on: 8th June 2017
