“Sadly my experience as an Admiral customer has been a bad one; so much so that I have taken my renewal business to other insurers and paid more to do so.
In September last year I was involved in a road traffc accident. I was stationary at the time and the 3rd party admitted full liability within 48 hours. However, from that point on, I was not treated by Admiral as a valued customer; indeed, on many occasions, my claims handler made me feel as though I had to justify each and every expense which I incurred as a result of the accident.
Now, over 7 months later, my claim has been paid but the sum paid has not covered all of the out of pocket expenses - and don't get me started on the write-off valuation process!!
In another twist to the whole sorry saga; my daughter was paid more for her claim for minor injuries than I was for the whole of my out of pocket expenses, including an injury to my arm which required physiotherapy treatment over a period of 8 weeks.”
“All went well until the renewal , I received a renewal price indicating a saving on last year, so I thought that was ok but I checked and received a cheaper quote elsewhere and proceeded with the new company . I could only cancel my renewal with Admiral by phoning them. At which point they offered a cheaper renewal price, so frustrating and time wasting. Why can’t these insurance companies just offer the best price at renewal?”
