Review of the Tesco Bank, Car Insurance:

Don’t waste your money on it

1
So the black box of course checks for many things, and in mine it reviews me as good for everything bar speed, even though I am keeping to the speed limits 99% of the time, but have now found out that even if your below the speed limit it can still have you as going too fast if the roads aren’t the best in their view. But also the miles you get is just too much of an issue, as how much they charge if you go past the contracts limit just takes the mick! As I certainly won’t be us... Reviewed on: 30th January 2024

Awful. Avoid

Awful. Nothing good whatsoever. Would never touch again even if I had to kill off my own mother to avoid them. Trust me - you need nothing to do with them. Reviewed on: 7th September 2024

Absolute disgrace.

Absolute disgrace. Refuses to accept no claims proof and gave us a week to get it. Emailed us once and they then cancelled. Forst we knew about cancellation was a text message when they said it was cancelled. Refused to reinstate Reviewed on: 4th September 2024

Joined tesco bank box 6 months ago now. Been very unhappy ever since. The customer service is shocking! The firstly called me numerous of times regarding my car being kept at a different address the whole month which is wasn’t. Then got more calls regarding miles. they charge an extortionate amount of money to add on more miles to the policy. each time i have called them i have never found them helpful. i wanted to raise a complaint to the complaint team and its took them 2 mont...

Attempt to tow away my car., why was I at fault.

There was an unsuccessful attempt to tow away my car which resulted in damage to the front end. I believe the keys were cloned and the alarms turned off. I paid an excess of £1,000 to a total garage bill of under £3,000. The car Audi S8 V10 had a £2K service and then 2 months later I traded it in for an Audi S8 D4. insurance was due on the D4 based non claims bonus based on 50 years no claims was reduced because I was "At Fault" for the attempted theft. HOW? This is just unfai... Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

Well managed and competitive.

Tesco Boxins insurance is a really well managed and competitive product that has not let me down. Their black box is not intrusive or annoying and I can actually see the reduction in my quote. They remain unbeaten on price for me and I look forward to continuing with them. Reviewed on: 25th August 2024
