Scammers

1
I have cancelled my car insurance with them because I have brought a new car and at first they told me that there is 300£ outstanding payment that I have to pay it, it was all good after 2 weeks a recive a letter be post and it says 500£. They're the worst. Reviewed on: 9th September 2022

After accident car written off. Tesco wrote cancelling insurance. I had cover for approx 2 months. I paid for 12 months. Tesco say they will not insure me in future. Because they cancelled all cover I am not covered when I test drive replacement vehicle. I had driving of other cars third part only on my policy. DONT INSURE WITH TESCO Reviewed on: 2nd September 2022

Brilliant insurer

Tesco bank have been the best car insurance company i have dealt with in my ten years of driving. Someone crashed into my car and denied responsibility, Tesco repaired my car, provided a courtesy car, replaced my child's car seat and kept my no claims intact all in a timely manner. I would highly recommend them Reviewed on: 1st September 2022

Fraudulent declarations

1
My husband car was hit and written off whilst parked by an uninsured driver. Police were involved and driver was arrested at the scene. Tesco have been dragging their heels saying they need more information to claim the money back from the third party. Received renewal in the meanwhile and the claim is down as husband hit third party and is at fault. Asked them to correct it to unoccupied vehicle and none fault to be told ‘we can put whatever we want’ t&cs state that if any information is found to be incorrect it can invalidate the insurance. Yet they refuse to correct an error therefore the insurance would be invalid. Reviewed on: 26th August 2022

Cancellation
