Great price for the first year but a huge increase on renewal so I moved elsewhere Reviewed on: 6th July 2016

Very disappointing!!!! Wont ever use again!!!!

I offered my home and car insurance to Saga, purely by accident , but as a young 65 year old thought they’d offer a good deal. But how wrong was I. Absolute no support on a car scrape I had, apparently I had clicked on ‘voluntary excess’ and ‘excess of £150’ which meant I had an excess of £500 , which didn’t cover the cost so it did don’t cover any costs! They couid not explain what ‘voluntary’ was? I didn’t therefore claim anything but when renewal was due, my costs increased from £250 to £530! When queried, they said I’d made two claims !! Neither of which is taken up! Would not use them again! Reviewed on: 23rd April 2025

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 zone, airbags etc, but I got out alive. The car is a write off. Other person admitted liability, and in fairness kept that stance with her insurance company - Admiral. This happened on a Saturday at 11.00am, and by 5.00pm I had contacted SAGA, and gave all the details and was given the email address to send the photos and dashcam video to SAGA. Did this - and since (It is now Thurdsay pm) then SAGA, have not contacted me at all, despite me phoning up every day. Today I was told that SAGA are only the brokers, and that I should contact Ageas, the underwriters !! I was also told that Ageas would ring me back - never happened. The company that has come out of this well, is Admiral. They contacted me (having got my details from their client), and told me that SAGA had not forwarded any details or photos or my dashcam footage, but that their client admitted full fault, and that i could ask SAGA to close the claim, which would lead to a faster resolution, and less cost to both companies. Today I have tried to get SAGA to close the claim, but getting a sensible response is hopeless. I was in the lucky position of being able to go out and buy another car - the loan / courtesy car that I was entitled to on my policy, never materialised. As, I said previously not a single person from SAGA has contacted me. Disgraceful service - I'm in my 70's and SAGA at one time their unique selling point was that they were a company for the over 50's - I think that USP is now out of the window - they are like any other company - do not appreciate customers - let alone loyalty. I will never use any SAGA product again. Reviewed on: 6th March 2025

I wouldn't know where to start.

I wouldn't know where to start.I started this claim in 2022 following a water leak. Communication is dire. I'm still awaiting a return call from Saga from 26/09/24. I now have extensive damp in my kitchen from a badly fitted sink unit fitted by an " odd job person" Saga employed to do this.I am now with a new insurer but contacted Saga has it was due to poor workmanship this problem has occurred. I currently have pneumonia so living in a damp environment is unhealthy.I tried to contact them today but told " not picking up the phone" I DESPAIR. I also asked for a no or email to make a complaint I was told this needs to be done via person not answering the phone! All bright ideas or help would be much appreciated.

Good service following car accident

I was involved in a car accident. It wasn’t my fault, which Saga accepted. Their agent explained everything in great detail to me. My damaged car was fixed and is like new again. Reviewed on: 4th September 2024
