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

Took almost 2 years to resolve a car accident which was frustrating. I would have liked more regular updates too. Submission of the car accident though was easy and customer service was excellent. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Breakdown

I recently broke down. As annoying as it was, the assistance I got was great and I was recovered relatively quickly. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Good to have an actual person to speak to if needed

Had issue with first car and finance company but Tesco were great and helped me sort out new policy. Only gripe would be they don’t have multi car option. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Dreadful useless portal used to check progress of repair. Incomprehensible drivel with appalling use of the English language and often just wrong. lead time for repair indicated 8 weeks so tried to go elsewhere but then you don’t get courtesy car. Paint shop customer service sucked although quality if job satisfactory. system riddled with fault demand answered phone 1 time in 4. Under staffed office working with crap systems. Courtesy car was so slow I was scared to cross a dual... Reviewed on: 8th August 2024
