Poor

Poor service Not aware of products Waste of time Reviewed on: 3rd September 2017

Good communications

Before the government upped the prices Swinton were brilliant. Brilliant to talk to on the phone and handle all queries both online and via phone. Reviewed on: 1st September 2017

Accessible and get value for money quotes

I eventually moved from another national insurance broker (the AA) to Swinton because I found the former to be too commercially driven and the prices were rising above the competitive rate. I found Swinton be good at giving me choices so I could pick a lower price with great cover. They also have a better customer response - through their easy accessibility and general openness and helpfulness. The impression I get from Swinton is they provide focus on giving a good customer response and then the good commercial business will follow as a natural consequence. Well done Swinton, keep it up. Reviewed on: 1st September 2017

Incompent and misleading

Don't believe their statement about claims help. I was misled and passed to Hertz Accident Support who only seek to make money out of your misfortune. In industry for over 20 years and have never seen such incompetence as I was subjected to. FINANCIAL OMBUDSMAN found against Swinton in my case! Avoid this Insurer at all costs. Seek cover elsewhere! Reviewed on: 6th August 2017

Perfect customer service

Good

Yes I would always recommend getting this insurer Reviewed on: 22nd June 2017

Absolutely awful

Swinton well they are absolutely awful. Business practices from 20 years ago and very poor customer service. Reviewed on: 28th February 2017

Impressed

Swinton - been extremely impressed with their service, the cheapest around for me and their customer service whenever ive needed to ring them is top notch :D Reviewed on: 27th February 2017

No reward for staying

I'm with Swinton, who after sending me a renewal with a hefty increase managed to reduce it significantly after a phone call. I'm happy with the service I receive, but wish that loyal customers were rewarded for staying. Reviewed on: 27th February 2017
