Review of the Tesco Bank, Car Insurance:

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! Wouldn’t waste your time or money I was paying £220 a month for insurance on my Range Rover evoque that was stolen without keys I reported this to Tesco 3 weeks ago now and still haven’t been offered a settlement figure even though the vehicle was found I’ve had phone calls from copart asking if I have the key to the vehicle the same key Tesco have already made me post back to them! No settlement figure yet my cars already in a salvage auction! Leaving me to feel as though Tesco have currently stolen my car and all the money I paid for it! I also payed extra on top of this for a like for like curtesy car at the point of reporting the claim I wasn’t even offered a curtesy car the next day I had to ring Tesco again only to find out they’d not put all the details through so I still couldn’t have a curtesy car I had to argue with Tesco and there curtesy car company for 2 days to have a curtesy car brought out twice they promised me it would be there on that same day and wasn’t and even when I finally managed to get one brought out they told me they was unable to honour the like for like I paid extra for TESCO USE A FRAUD INVESTIGATION TEAM CALLED ROBERTSON & CO THIS COMPANIES ONLINE REVIEWS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES CHECK THE COMPANY ROBERTSON & CO OUT FOR YOURSELF FIRST! Tesco have claimed they can’t do anymore for me until the Robertson and co report comes though this company in question have strung me along for 3 weeks claiming every single day my report will be reviewed regularly being rude to me down the phone or putting the phone down! MY VEHICLE WAS BOUGHT IN CASH AS MANY ARE IVE ALREADY PROVIDED THEM A WRITTEN INVOICE THE SELLER GAVE ME! This money came from me and my partner selling my Audi A1 and his Ford focus WE NEEDED A BIGGER CAR DUE TO BEING A FEW WEEKS OFF HAVING A NEW BABY this company in question are demanding I provide them bank statements for these cash/Facebook marketplace sales clearly this is not possible when they were private cash sales THIS COMPANY ARE MAKING US FEEL AS IF THERE MAIN PURPOSE IS TO PREVENT ANY PAY OUT FOR THE THEFT OF OUR VEHICLE TESCO HAD ALREADY TRIED TO FORCE ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK THE SAME WEEK IT WAS STOLEN! SO IS THIS JUST ANOTHER WAY FOR THEM TO AVOID PAYING YOU OUT! Me and my partner both have severe mental health issues and these have massively deteriorated since this incident and claim we also have two children one of them being severely autistic my poor daughter was petrified of having that car back after knowing someone had stolen it she felt unsafe and in danger she also needs structure with her being autistic the lack of curtesy car prevented her from being able to attend school our baby was also due jabs at the doctors Tesco did not care one bit about this WE HAVE NOW BEEN FORCED AND LEFT WITH NO OTHER OPTION BUT TO ASK TO CANCEL THE CLAIM AND HAVE OUR VEHICLE BACK BECAUSE BOTH COMPANIES HAVE NO INTEREST IN DEALING WITH US APPROPRIATELY OR OFFERING US A SETTLEMENT THE AMOUNT OF PAIN WORRY AND STRESS THESE COMPANIES HAVE CAUSED ARE GENUINELY NOT WORTH IT PLEASE AVOID SAVE YOURSELF ANY HASSLE Reviewed on: 19th December 2024

No Accidents, but still double insurance prices

Hi, I do a lot with Tesco. Shopping, mobiles(4), car and house insurance. I naturally use Tesco to save money and it's a great service, close to my house and with EV charging for my EV. However, this year my insurance doubled and I have a no accident history, but good drivers are being penalised for the bad drivers. Why?, because we pay for good insurance, not like the rubbished offered by go compare, whoses companies will not pay out or want enourmouse £500+ payments, in the event of a crash. These insurances are rubbish and all should have fully comp. Where I live in Bermondsey, London, the driving is very poor and many young men can by a fast car for £3000, not insure the car and drive faster than the speed limit. I have a front screen camera and some of the footage would make a movie with scrapes, accidents or stupid driving. I have a safe driving app and great score. None of this counted and I have children like everyone else. So, I paid up and sucked it in, but next year, if it doubles again, the car will go and I love my Nissan EV, Tesco points or not!!!!!

Useless Windscreen Cover

3 weeks to book replacement windscreen from their suppliers Nation Windscreens only to be cancelled on the day and told to wait another 2 weeks but they will probably cancel again-unbeleivable. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2023

Thieves, avoid

Most Awful experience I ever had with, despite I'm having full breakdown cover, they've left me stranded in the dark in the middle of nowhere with 2 little kids and a newborn and they're team behind the phone are very rude and incompetent Reviewed on: 14th August 2023

Use Any car insurance besides them

Run by allowed of crooks and pirates do anything not to pay a claim, rather take the risk and use no insurance than pay another penny to these scammers. Reviewed on: 13th August 2023

Praise where Praise is due.

My claim was dealt with, my car assessed, repaired and returned all within a couple of weeks. There were 2 ladies in particular whom I spoke with from Tesco Bank, (Elaine and Sue,) who were incredibly kind, helpful and patient. I was kept updated throughout the whole process. Can't fault my whole experience with them. Reviewed on: 8th August 2023
