Sheilas Wheels Car insurance reviews (186)

Good Price

4
Good price and cover (5* Defaqto at the time). Clear paperwork through their online portal and overall no issue with taking out cover. As with many car insurers we were able to beat the renewal price elsewhere so will be moving on once the policy expires, but no complaints so far. Reviewed on: 14th August 2019

Simple, Swift and Competitive

5
Renewal figure was competitive, process was slick and happy to renew for another year. Reviewed on: 30th July 2019

Excellent

5
Excellent service quick cheap & efficient Reviewed on: 22nd July 2019

Non fault claim accident

2
Opening a claim with Shiela wheels for a non fault accident was one of the worse things I’ve ever had to go through. It’s been 6 months and it’s still going on. I never got told the correct information and never been contacted with an update. They are very slow and terrible customer communication skills I would not recommend. Stay away Reviewed on: 17th July 2019

Excellent service and hassle free

5
This company has been extremely customer focused from the minute I contacted them. Everything was straightforward and all the details transparent. I have had no issues whatsoever and highly recommend them. Reviewed on: 10th July 2019

Solid policy

3
sound and good value policy backed up with good customer service Reviewed on: 8th July 2019

Avoid

1
Avoid if you don't want to pay insane increases on your monthly premium. They won't price match their competitors so are happy to see current customers leave, clearly not bothered whatsoever about looking after them. Really poor customer care and service. Put the same review on Trustpilot and got a response essentially confirming that they would be happy for me to leave - needless to say that says it all and I certainly will not be renewing. Terrible. Reviewed on: 21st January 2019

What a rip-off

1
I had been with Sheila's Wheels for about 4 years for both my car and home/contents insurance; they always came out among the most competitively priced when I checked comparison websites so I was happy to stay with them. However when my car insurance renewal quote came through this time it seemed very high and certainly didn't rate among the most competitive on comparison websites. In fact their own website quoted me nearly 90 quid cheaper and Confused.com undercut even that. When I contacted them they immediately said they would match the price on their own website (but were noit interested in matching the one on Confused.com). They would however have happily charged me the asking price of their renewal quote had I not challenged. I politely declined their offer and went with another company. Very disappointed in Sheila's Wheels - as a result of their stance they also lost my custom when it came to renewing my home and contents policy the following month. Insurance companies spend a fortune on advertising to attract new customers so why do they treat the ones they already have like dirt - not to mention insulting our intelligence? It is beyond me!
