Review of the Swiftcover, Car Insurance:

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

1
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

To cancel my motor policy within 14 days they charge £25, though waive this if online. What's worse is they charge £52.50 after 14 days and charged £30 for changes which could have been made for free online. Cheeky Reviewed on: 10th March 2016

Slow.. Very slow

Took a year to sort a non fault claim, didn't feel like they were on my side and I was backed into s corner having to stay another year because it took them so long and an accident was showing on my file, saved myself nearly 200 pound a year by switching too, good riddance!

On-Line Amendments

4
I have had swiftcover car insurance on a couple of occasions. What I really like is the ease that I can amend any details with such speed. Unlike with some insurers, the swiftcover site is quick to respond and easy to find and check the details. Even better, it is easy to check the details are correct and so it gives you peace of mind.

I would highly recommend them for car insurance as they are quite friendly and helpful.

Charged excess for windscreen damage

4
Swiftcover's customer service was fine on the odd occasion I had to contact them, however when I had an issue with my windscreen I was informed that they are the only major car insurance provider that charges an excess fee as well as a year's no claims bonus. Having to pay as well as sacrificing a year of my no claims seemed excessive, so just be aware that while they may often be the cheapest provider there is a reason! Reviewed on: 19th October 2015

quick and easy

Not bad

We got this car insurance when we bought our new car, after shopping around for a good deal that covered pretty much all the basics and ticked a few boxes, we decided to take this one out thanks to the competitive price legal cover etc etc, unfortunately after only having our new car for 3 months some nasty people decided that they wanted to try and steal it, but while doing that the car knew they didnt have a key and the immobilizer etc all kicked in so they decided to cover tracks lets set it on fire how nice of them, anyways car gets put out police come all the usual things, rang the insurance and from start to finish I can honestly say they did all they could car was lifted courtesy car was delivered my only problem was with having two small children and car seats totally destroyed in the fire, it took them 5 weeks to pay out the insurance and we were told only £100 for car seats cd's stereo buggy etc etc, when in actual fact it was £300 which is what we changed it to when we took out the policy, over all they done all they could.

Simple and easy to understand, and renewing was made very simple and easy with a competitve price.

I initially joined swiftcover 2 years ago to insure my car. I found them through a comparison site and they had the most competitve price that was available to me. Getting covered was simple and easy to do through the website, and had no troubles at all. After my initial year of cover it came time to renew and I was sent a renewal quote through email in ample time to check for competitive prices. I had a look at other insurers but nobody could match the renewal price which is quite unusual, so I easily renewed cover. Reviewed on: 7th August 2015
