Tesco Bank Car insurance reviews (543)

Cancelled my car insurance - AVOID!

After struggling to upload my no claims discount, Tesco cancelled my insurance with no warning and refused to reinstate it leaving me stranded at work. They are also demanding I pay up front for additional extras such as breakdown cover for the whole year, immediately. Appalling customer service Reviewed on: 15th March 2019

Absolute disgrace

When you phone yo and get spoken to like **** my friends said don’t use them but I didn’t listen!! Worse mistake ever!!! Stay clear of this company!!! Reviewed on: 12th March 2019

Avoid... tesco won't refund money owed

Awful attitude when ending insurance due to car sale. I paid for a full years insurance. They refuse to refund monies owed by cheque. Will only send funds to an account which they know no longer exists. Complete joke. Will never use again due to poor service. Reviewed on: 12th March 2019

Accident claim solved within 5 working days

Tesco provides excellent customer service. My car got wrecked by third party, they wrote my car off on Monday and got payed out on Wednesday. The whole process took only 5 working days. They are very helpful, provide excellent customer service and always there when you need them. Recommend it to everyone! Reviewed on: 27th February 2019

Avoid at all costs

Tesco Box Insurance - wouldn't ever shop with Tesco again for this reason. Took out a 6000 mile policy and have been paying for Top up miles as job circumstances changed and needed to drive more miles... worked out how much I've paid totalling £2,300!!! Rang to cancel and for a refund of the 6 months cover I haven't used and Tesco claim I've paid for my 6000 miles policy and as gone over I'm not due any refund. So in total I've paid £2,300 for 6 months car insurance!!!! Absolute scam. Do NOT get Tesco Box Insurance. Reviewed on: 21st January 2019

Trouble-free with Tesco

Started a new policy with Tesco in May 18. Brilliant price, I had just acquired my 1 years no claim and the price they offered was half what I was paying previously and 1/4 cheaper than all the other providers. 8 hours into my new policy.... I crashed... All my fault, I was terrified of calling them, I could only imagine what they would be thinking..... 8 HOURS!!! I couldn't have been more wrong!!! They were amazing, cannot even begin to explain how fabulous they were! Their first question was, are you OK?! I profusely apologised for the whole situation and was told to not give it a second thought, that was what they were there for. My car had minimal damage but they insisted on it being repaired straight away and had me a courtesy car out that same day (my neighbour who I crashed into had insisted on dealing with his own insurance company as he wanted main dealer repair had a 2 week wait before his courtesy car came). They processed the claim so quickly and 2 days later they rang to check again that me and my children were OK following on from the incident. Even when my car was being repaired and I couldn't afford to pay the garage the excess (monthly wage), Tesco rang them and arranged that they would 'take their time' with the repair to give me extra time to get the money together. I had the courtesy car for 3 weeks! My renewal is up in 3 months and I can't wait to renew again with Tesco. Reviewed on: 11th January 2019

AVOID!

Did not alert me at all that a claim was made against my vehicle, causing me a lot of difficulty in renewing my insurance and finding out I would have to pay hundreds of pounds more than originally planned. When complaining about this, I was told that "in an ideal world we would've, but we didn't" ABSOLUTELY FUMING!!!! Reviewed on: 9th January 2019

Insurance premium

Its quite expensive for young drivers, as in young people dont have enough money to save for future because we pay the insurance premium and is really expensive. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Foarte bun
