Not a reputable car insurer

Draw you in with a cheap quote, then when you are forced to make a claim they do not deal with it properly. They side with the Third Party, affecting your NCD and give false information. My complaint is now in the hands of the Ombudsman for Mis-administration for both the claim and my complaint. DO NOT SIGN UP TO AXA/SWIFTCOVER CAR INSURANCE! Reviewed on: 6th November 2025

Worst Customer service if you need to make a claim!!!

Made a claim for small car park accident in October no communication from Swift cover after endless emails & phone calls chasing. Swift cover say knew nothing of the claim submitted yet in October they sent me to a accident repair garage to get a quote which the garage submitted straight away and we are still awaiting swift cover to approve or acknowledge all the chasing of the quote from their approved garage. Worst customer service ever!!! Ok till you need to make a claim then they disappear. First claim in over 23 years.. Been loyal to Swiftcover for years but wont stay now...

I filed an accident claim on 6th Sept/2024 and on 10th Sep/2024 the insurance company called me to settled the total loss amount which was to be credited to my bank account within 5 to 7 days but it was passed after 7 days. The fixed settled amount was not received. When i asked to Swfitcover on phone call, the representatives kept transferring the call to each other and after waiting for a long time, they were told to wait until next Tuesday, If the total loss settlement is not deposited in your bank account on Tuesday, then contact again, this situation is happening to me for the first time in 17 years, really bad experience with this insurance company. Lack of proper coordination between different departments leading to waste of time in passing the customer call to different representative which shows company lack of goodwill. Not paying the client despite fixing the settlement amount and wasting time and various pretexts. Reviewed on: 20th September 2024

This insurance company is a RIPOFF people, BEWARE BE WARNED.

Had a quote last year for £380 good deal I was happy. This year 16 oct 2023 they wanted £480 called them today 36 hours later and they said today £800. Been with this company for so long nearly 50 no convictions 16 years ncb and they treat me like a nobody or a young teenager so had to drive today with no insurance due to them wasting a lot of my time today. Total rip-off gits. STAY CLEAR as your renewal will be double. Propa pisstakers. Reviewed on: 19th October 2023

Terrible

Took 7 months to contact independent witness,then after my complaints took 3rd party side even with my witness! They are dishonest & have never spoken to my witness! Reviewed on: 18th September 2023

Well priced

I was pleased with the quote, which had superior coverage and price to what my longstanding insurer would go down to. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Would not recommend swift

I have had issues with swifts customer service being very poor and also there price for me to renew was exceptionally high considering i had no claims and as a current customer I expected the premium to stay the same or even better reduce instead it increased by almost 20% Reviewed on: 22nd August 2023
