Review of the Sheilas Wheels, Car Insurance:

Terrible Service should you have an accident

1
I was hit by a car on the 9/12/22, my car was recovered on the 10/12/22. It is now the 22/12/22 , i have added car hire option to my policy when i took it out. But 12 days later i have no courtesy car, no hire car. No decision if my car will be repaired or written off. The whole point of paying for the additional car hire options is so you will always have transport when the worse happens. I am cancelling my auto renewal on this policy the service is a disgrace.

Just really straight forward and easy to deal with. The online portal is very easy to navigate but if you ever need to pick up the phone and speak to someone that’s easy to navigate also. A fair price for a good product. Reviewed on: 4th September 2024

Car Insurance

5
Fantastic price for car insurance considering how much I was quoted by other companies. I’ve used Sheila’s Wheels in the past and I’ve always had a great experience when I’ve called to ask questions or needed information. I would definitely recommend them. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

A bit expensive compared to other insurance companies.

A bit expensive compared to other insurance companies. Their renewal price was considerably expensive compared to just getting a new insurance which also had better benefits. They charge a lot for admin changes as well. Reviewed on: 21st May 2024

Cancelled without notice

1
Everything went well until the 1st monthly payment, it bounced and the next day they cancelled it. So I lost my 25% deposit. If they waited until Friday they would’ve got the money Reviewed on: 4th May 2024

One star and that’s being generous the service I’ve received from them has been terrible I was in a car accident in January and my vehicle was written off I have had to constantly chase them to get things sorted your on hold for over an hour every time you call before you Evan get to speak to any one then when you finally do get through to someone they haven’t got a clue how to sort you query so getting put on hold again for 20/30 minutes at a time. I still haven’t been paid o... Reviewed on: 3rd April 2024

Wanted to renew a policy and pay

Wanted to renew a policy . They had automatic renewal but card had ended, Called to give new card , also a couple of amendments. Waited 40 mins for customer service operator, could hardly hear her , poor communication skills , tries to charge us extra £32 to make changes then couldn't give us the new premium which should have been lower until we paid the old premium . The operative was next to useless, zero customer service skills. We asked to speak to supervisor , at 1hr 40 min... Reviewed on: 1st March 2024

Avoid sheils wheels - had to organise my own repair

1
Having spent over 2 hours on hold i finally made a claim. They emailed me the details of the garage they they had 'arranged'. I rang the garage 2 days later as we hadnt heard from them and they informed me that they were not an approved repairer for the car so couldn’t take the job. The insurance policy clearly states the make of the car, so why would they try and send the car to a garage that cant repair it? Unfortunately this got worse. I immediately rang Sheilas Wheels and ... Reviewed on: 25th February 2024

Avoid Sheilas Wheels and Esure - On hold over 2 hours

1
The online claims system was not working, so I rang to make a claim. Was on hold for 53 minutes only to be told that they could not take the details of the claim and that they would put me through to someone who can. I was put back on hold again, and then I was cut off a few minutes later. Very frustrating. So I tried the online chat service. It was 39 minutes before anyone answered and they also said that they couldn’t take the claim and that I needed to ring the number I had ... Reviewed on: 24th February 2024
