Review of the Tesco Bank, Car insurance:

Took an extra 60% off me above what was quoted

1
On the 4th November, I got a price to transfer my tesco car insurance from my old car to my new one: £106.22 The person I spoke to said the quote would be saved on their system, so on the day of transfer (1 week later, Saturday 11th November), all I needed to do was give my policy details and the switch would be simple. I purchased the car as planned and when I phoned through, they said they had no record of a call and then they bumped the transfer price up from £106 to £167!!! They left me stuck in a situation where I had no choice but to give in to a 60% increase. I complained but they reiterated that they (conveniently) could find no record of offering me that quote and therefore, case closed. NEVER AGAIN! Reviewed on: 12th November 2023

Great Customer Service

5
I bought my car insurance through a price comparison website and the best option for me was Tesco. Everything went smoothly - easy to purchase on line (although it didn't include Tesco Club Card points). I rang customer service asking why and she said they only have offers from time to time to include club card points. Great customer service though - very pleasant and helpful.
