Sheilas Wheels Car insurance reviews (186)

Good until you need them ..

1
Had a life changing diagnosis so needed to cancel my insurance until further notice. They took a monthly payment yesterday and have taken £49.22 to cancel today with only two months left on the policy. Immoral bunch of cretins. Don’t mind paying a minimal admin fee, but nearly £50 is disgraceful considering it’s a click of button. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2022

Competitive price but woeful claim support

2
Had an accident on Saturday. Still haven't got a nominated repairer or date. Trying to get through to Sheila's Wheels is very difficult, they simply do not employ sufficient staff. The worst insurance experience I've had in 30 years driving. Do not choose Sheila's wheels are your next insurer. Reviewed on: 18th January 2022

Absolutely worst insurance company i have ever dealt with

1
I had a car accident on the 14th of December 2021. I rang the insurance company, and it took me an hour to get through, eventually towed my car away 2 hours later. Tried to get through to the insurance company 10 times, 1 hour wait. I eventually rang the company who towed my car away to find out which assessment garage my car had been towed to. still no info from insurance company, no rental car ,because they are waiting to see if it is a write off before they can make this decision. customer service are irritable on the phone with you when you are eventually able to speak to them. I have never had an accident in 33 years of driving and never want to deal with such an appalling company and service again in my life. absolutely disgusted with the way they have handled my claim and it is still ongoing.

Nightmare auto

This service is a nightmare. The automated service is useless and pathetic. No customer service just goes on and on . A total waste of my time. Sorry I insured with them. Now I know who they belong to won’t make the same mistake again Reviewed on: 2nd December 2021

Broken contract, no communication, left without a car for nine days

1
Had a very minor collision, was told by Sheilas' Wheels to submit photos of the damage on their website for assessment. I did this and got an email from them saying that my car was a total loss as the cost of repairs was more than the car was worth. I was very surprised by this, as the damage was minimal. I rang the company to discuss this and was told that one of their engineers had decided that he wanted it to be assessed at a garage to see if the car could be repaired instead of written off, and that if repairs could be made then I would be provided with a courtesy car. Car was picked up on Wednesday for the assessment. Six days later I had still not had any contact from the insurer to tell me what the outcome of the assessment was, so I rang the garage. They informed me that my car wasn't a total loss at all, sand they had started repairs several days ago. I asked why I hadn't been told and they said they had let the insurer know, who should have passed it on to me. I asked why I hadn't been given a courtesy car, they said they were never told that I was entitled to a courtesy car, and that the earliest they could get one to me would be the same day that my car was expected to be returned to me. I rang Sheilas' wheels to ask why I hadn't been informed that my car wasn't a totaly loss as they had stated, why I hadn't been told that repairs had been started, and why I hadn't been given a courtesy car. All the memeber of staff said was "I don't know, sorry" over and over again. The woman I spoke to said she would inform the person who was handling my case of the situation and get him to give me a call back. Well I never got a call back and I never got any answers. The courtesy car is in my contract with Sheilas' Wheels, they broke that contract by not holding up their end of it, while also leaving me without a car for nine days (which made my life very difficult). The fact that I was incorrectly told that my car was a total loss as well as the total lack of communication from them throughout the entire process was absolutely not acceptable. I will not be using them again. Reviewed on: 15th October 2021
