“Feeling really annoyed, can't get through on any of their Contact Numbers for Car Insurance Claims. When you finally do, have inadequate staff and don't take down the details fully, this resulted in at least 3 more phone calls, just to get the Claim logged. Even when you ask if someone can return your call you wait forever more, hrs to speak to anyone. I won't ever use them again.”

“Had a accident two years ago which I am still trying to sort out. Axa are the underwriter for my Insurance company and there customer service is the worse is have ever dealt with. When you get through on the phone they give you the impression they are going to help you, doesn't happen. I have a list as long as my arm with the names of the people I have dealt with on the phone, never the same one, and they always claim will phone back with an up date, never happens. In the two years I have received one letter from them. They don't seem to want to listen to what you say. What is hard to understand in the phrase "I am taken no fault for the accident" Worst company I have ever dealt with.”

“Terrible company. My father died from a brain haemorrhage whilst on holiday in Ireland. AXA sent our sensitive personal information to a stranger, recorded our data incorrectly including hospital admission dates, did not have the correct hospital he was in down in their records, spelt our family surname incorrectly (in some cases three different ways in the same document) and in the legal medical consent forms the surname was spelt two different ways. They did not record the fact that my father had died after we had informed them, leading to an extremely distressful telephone exchange - while I was trying to determine how to get my father's body home, the person on the phone was talking about whether he needed a nurse or was "medically fit" to travel... Claiming our expenses back has been no easier as expected and the the claims line have been equally difficult to deal with. Absolutely disgusting company, especially when you need them to do what you've signed up with them to do most. Avoid at all costs.”

“Did EVERYTHING they could to refuse a legitimate claim, On holiday, a bag containing my 7 month old daughters belongings was taken from a hotel lobby, When speaking to the claim department i was once not clear about the bags being within reach, and was talking generally about the theft, which they then took as their excuse to refuse the claim.. throughout the process the made me feel terrible, be warned they will do ANYTHING to avoid supporting you in the event of an accident, I am considering taking the matter to court.”

“We are now without a car after a woman drove into the back of ours that was parked up.we got paid not enough to buy another.we have got a bill from kwikfit insurance for £740 because axa have not told them the claim was non fault and has been settled.Why? because they can't be botherd to let them know. We have been bullied into taking a payment that we didn't want all we wanted was our car back fixed but since it's not our fault we have no say.Really not good but thats AXA take the money and shut up attitude”

“Had a year's home insurance with AXA , which was OK price, can't comment on the service as we had no need to claim. But the quote for renewal came in at more than double the previous price. No changes in our needs, no claims - obviously just hoping I wouldn't check and just let it auto-renew. Sooo - I hit the comparison sites for a new deal with someone else - and up popped a quote from AXA which was around the figure I'd been paying in the first place - again, less than half the price I'd been quoted to renew. Taking that quote and going with them again as new business would actually have been cheaper than the policy I eventually took, but in all honesty, I wouldn't use them again even if it was free. Can't believe companies are still trying to pull this sort of bull....”

“Don't answer to emails although they say this is their prefered contact method. To speak to them I have had to wait on the line for at least 30 mins + every times (4 times so far!!)”

“Worst customer service ever. If you have any question which means they have to spend money they put you on hold and you go back to the start of the process. I think criminal, going to trading standards.”

“I just have bought renewal insurance for my car one more time. This was probably the 6th year in a row. Every time I have admired the staff AXA employed. Absolutely brilliant and professional people. I wanted to write top review every year I bought insurance but kept forgetting, my apologies for that. This year again your employees exceed my expectations. I buy my insurance in Belfast AXA office. Many thanks again.”

“Absolutely shocking service!! I will NEVER insure with AXA again and advise anyone else to go elsewhere. Any insurer must be better than this one!! Dreadful service. I can't even get hold of them in an emergency.”

“they told us after a driver had hit our parked car we could get it repaird no matter what as long as it would be safe. 3 weeks later they want to write it of because the fix firm has given an inflated quote and theyu are not even paying for the repair. The people we have talked to don't seem to know anything, wre have a LPG dual fuel car and this AXA person asked if we had hard evidance of the LPG??? Like the DVLA make things up. Will never use any company that deals with these clowns again”

“I have been with AXA for my car insurance and other insurances and when it comes to renewal, the increases are much greater than for competitive companies. I phoned up and they offered to see if they could reduce the quote. This was a repeat of what happpened last year. I find this approach totally unethical and they are playing on vulnerable and trusting people. I think the only way to defeat this practice is to switch.”

“I will never insure with this bunch of cowboys. My wife had a accident in my car and I reported the following day to the out of hours claims line (it was a weekend). Monday no call. Phoned again two weeks later as still no call to be told that no claim has been logged but I would get a call from the claims team within 24 hours. Guess what, no call!!! Called a third time but spoke to customer services who told me that no claim had been logged and would put a call back request outlining the problem. Again no call. I have now cancelled my Dad's renewal with them and won't be renewing my policy when it is due.”

“This is the worse insurance company - l have ever experience. Please do not go with this company as the stress this has cause me left me in tears/staff don't care about customers/left me hanging on the phone for hours on end/you paying for the calls. I had accident nearly two weeks ago waiting for a call back never happened. Put a complaint in to Amanda/Karine Thursday it's now Tuesday notting was done, l had to phoned again today was told she will look into this, l am now waiting for a call back, let's see if the will get back. Spoke to Jiany Thursday then passed me on to someone else this was the wong department then l was passed back to Jiany (l was told by Friday if l didn't get a call back, send her email which she gave me. I email her Friday at 16.30 did l get a reply no.... it's now Tuesday. I don't know how this company is still in business..... please do not go with them as you will make the same mistake as l did. Don't go on the cheap quote you get from them!! Tracy”
