I had my work vehicle/livelihood stolen 15th Nov 2020 and was quickly paid out, however Autonet have continued to take payment even though there is no van to insure! I would have thought that once you have been paid out and the finance paid off and the vehicle not in existence that would have been an end to the matter, obviously not. Autonet sent me a renewal notice for this vehicle today and this is what brought this to my attention. Its bad enough that you are robbed by unscrupulous light fingered low lives but you don't expect your insurance company to join in!!

Absolutely dreadful! After finding a very competitive quote through a comparison site, we went on to take the policy. We have had nothing but trouble - three letters threatening us with cancellation - each time have rang them straight away and given them the information they have needed - yet another letter to cancel - another phone call - and so it goes on. Tonight, the final straw - yet ANOTHER letter to cancel - so I rang immediately - they said there was a 'spelling mistake' from a previous insurer on some information we had sent therefore it was 'void'. This information had first been sent through when the original policy was taken out and in no correspondence or phone calls has this been told to us until today - when they have cancelled our policy. the people on the other end of the phone were rude and, after going through all of this in detail, I said I wanted to complain - she asked what about????? NEVER AGAIN!

I have been insured with them for the past 3 years and the price has always been very competitive so I have had no issues, until today when I changed address and the extortionate cost they have charged me for a simple administration of change to an address. My insurance premium was £278 and they have charged me £105.78 for the next 5 months this borderlines daylight robbery. I definitely will not be renewing my insurance policy with them in June out of principle, how they can charge so much so a simple administration is beyond belief.

Can’t rate autonet from them stars as it doesn’t go low enough!!!. But you have to give them at least a 1🤬 -10 I was looking for , Not far off a scam, very unhelpful and liars to boot!!!, they insured me for a week then wanted more money, saying that the accident I had last year which was a hit and run, from a foreign van driver which wrote my car off, was my fault as I claimed on my own insurance for my car, ( I wasn’t insured with these cretins at the time.).

Autonet have a website algorithm that up's the price if you leave the site and return..come back a day later - it drops. My Wifi dropped out 5 mins later the quote went up £85! They also hit you with a charge if you ever dare to claim a broken windscreen - an extra they are keen to add in but claim it and they add a penalty to EVERY future policy! NO OTHER insurer does this i have 5 vehicles with all different insurers... They count windscreen damage as a "claim" like others class as accidents. Phone lines can be incredibly hard to wade through too many options with long wait times (was as bad pre covid). Avoid if possible, only positive is the price. But after a year they wanted to up my policy by 800%! so i left at that time. They wouldn't negotiate. I have been driving 30 years with full no claims...

To change your address is £37.50. shocking price as I’ve never paid before to change my address (read the small print before you accept the policy for Fees ) This day and age everything online, emails etc. They did knock the price down to £14.95 after I fell off my chair but still shouldn’t have to pay for change of address.

I had insurance for 24hrs with this company. They rang me with a query and it turned out they wanted double the amount on monthly payments £80 odd pounds for fully comp on a crv. No thanks so asked for it to be cancelled and had to pay £50plus for cancelling on a policy I hadn't even received in an email yet! 24hrs I had this policy. Still get text now saying I owe them money! Stay well away would be my advice.

Really disappointing customer service. Holding customers to ransom when their insurance provider weren't willing to change vehicle on a policy. They want me to pay a cancellation fee!! and it's more if I cancel and leave than if they find me a new insurance. More money for less work.

I am disgusted with the level of customer care I recieved today from Autonet ins. I insured my car providing details that I was able to complete on your in line platform. I was charged immediately 31.89 on the 9th November 2020. Today I was informed I was not able to insure my vehicle because I am temporarily living out of the UK but still in the EU ! and that my Sorn vehicle was not valid & Autonet would not insure me. To ensure my complete dissatisfaction I was then charged 26.84 for the pleasure of not being insured ! as a cancellation fee Can I point out that I rang today to PAY not for Autonet to cancel may insurance your were happy to take and charge me for. This is appalling & i will be ensuring that my compaint is raised with the most senior executive I can identify within your company. Tonight I have recieved a letter stating my vehicle is not sorned ( which it is & you were informed of this today ) & that I should find alternative insurance. This may be a standard letter but your attention to customer service today was appalling & you have lost now a mature driver with maximum no claims happy to pay appropriate premiums. Kind Regards Neil D Fenton

I think cold calling at 7.58am is totally inappropriate as well as illegal. STOP doing it

Confirm your Policy and state that no further documents are required, then send emails 12 days later stating they require X,Y and Z, cancle policy because you do not reply and demand a £50 cancelation fee.

Recently purchased 2020/2021 motor insurance from this company, on line. They immediately deducted the (Confused.com) quoted premium from my credit card although the policy was not due to start for a further ten days. They then wrote to me disagreeing with some of the (previous claims) information I had provided and told me they intended to add £209 to the quoted premium stating that if I wished to withdraw my application for insurance they would charge a cancellation fee withdrawal fee of £25 from a refund of the premium already paid by me.
