Dont use this insurance they are the worst ever. Sadly they are very big and had to deal with them a few times and they have the worst customer services I have ever experience. It can take years for them to deal with a claim and do everything to not pay until you take them to Ombudsman !!! AVOID AVOID at all costs.

How this company has a 5 star defaqto rating is beyond me. I had to make a claim earlier in the year for a damaged headlight, after someone had reversed into my car and left without leaving any details. I contacted the claims team and they were useless. I was given incorrect information on more than one occasion and sent on a wild goose-chase to "vision" which is their approved company for booking your car into a garage for repairs. I told the claims team I wanted my car to be repaired at Southampton Audi as that is where my car was currently situated having its MOT. I was told by vision the nearest garage who could carry out my repairs was 25 miles further away in Salisbury! I pleaded with Vision that this was an enormous inconvenience, but they said that is all they could offer. More hours were then wasted contacting garages in Salisbury and getting absolutely nowhere as they could not carry out the repairs within a reasonable time frame. Due to the headlight damage my car had failed its MOT, so the repairs had to be carried out ASAP hence why I wished my car to be repaired at Southampton Audi where the car was situated at the time. I then gave up and called the AXA helpline number and was told that my car could be repaired at a garage of my choice all along! I also queried that the no claims team had said I would be classed as at fault in this instance and would be losing 10 years off my no claims! The call handler said this would not be the case and that it was essentially a hit and run I would not be classed as at fault and only lose 2 years no claims. This turned out to be further miss information and I have been classed as at fault! Axa need to seriously re-train their staff as the experience of making a claim was absolutely horrendous. I literally lost an entire day making endless phone calls going round in circles when I should have been given the correct information and guidance from the claims team at the first point of call. I am now trying to raise a complaint about this experience and being lied to, but trying to raise a complaint is almost impossible with AXA, as I think they simply do not care about me as a customer. Incredibly disappointing and frustrating experience from a so called 5 star insurer.

Axa Car Insurance are a thoroughly unpleasant company. Their insured hit our property over three months ago. We have sent everything they AXA have requested however they do not reply to any e-mails and if you try to call it is normal over 90 in a queue and over an 1 hour to 2 hours on hold. They are not fit for purpose and without doubt the worst company I have ever dealt with. We have now removed all our commercial insurance from them as a result of this issue. If you value your sanity do not use AXA.

The most terrible insurance company! Travelled to Istanbul in March and had my case opened by airport staff. Reported in airport and made a small claim when i returned. AXA refused to pay-even with my evidence, and do not reply to calls or emails. Esculated to Resolver now 8 months on. DO NOT USE AXA!

I had Axa insurance in Switzerland for the household. The refuse to pay out on fire insurance for some reason (although I did not claim for this they confirmed) and Civil liability was not covered. You can only cancel at the end of the term and the company are clearly just after money and to minimize any payouts. Avoid at all costs.

Shocking non-existent service. Company should not be operating. Phones not answered after hours of waiting when I tried to claim on Coverwise travel insurance 3 months ago after a serious accident. Now they're trying to pay me off to cancel my complaint - after a call out of the blue from their Mexico complaints team, 3 months later.

Would give 0 stars if possible. Waiting for 7 hours in hospital for insurance approval and all they can do on the phone is make excuse and lie about it being sorted asap. I pay for this insurance so expect the correct service. Completely unprofessional and will not cancel this insurance asap.

Do not use AXA!!!!! I have emailed serval times to get my delayed baggage claim sorted out. I made the claim over a month ago and keep receiving an automated message saying they are too busy to assist me. I do not understand why I purchased insurance with them if they do not help when I need to make an insurance claim. I can not reach anyone by phone, EVER! However, it was super easy to get a hold of someone when I wanted to purchase the plan. I am so disappointed in this company. I did research before purchasing travel insurance, and they had good reviews. I guess you can not trust corporations to do their jobs anymore.

really bad service 1 year my vans been off the road , with no appropriate replacement , as promised. 2 garages have attempted to fix it , neither is regulated. SO beware I had my policy cancelled, in error. I have dealt with some rude complaint agents , who hung up the phone. Despite having 2 complaints upheld , i have been forced to go to the ombudsman. Avoid at all costs

Don't bother with this insurance company. I have been waiting over nine months for my car to be repaired. Trying to get through to them is a nightmare they keep you on hold for over a hour then when you get to speak to someone they tell you one thing then pass you on to another department and you still don't get the problem sorted. I would have given them no stars the whole company is a joke don't waste your money or time on them.

Took Axa insurance out for a trip to Thailand in March 2022. Three days before I was due to go, I contracted Covid.,so was unable to fly. I made a claim, and was asked for the usual evidence (Flight ticket, policy number, evidence of Covid, airline letter of non-flight etc) They continued to ask me for the same documents over and over, even though I had already supplied them. Finally, they said "We possess all of the documents we require. We just need to check through everything, to see it is all in order" The last email I received was over two months ago, and absolutely nothing from them since, despite me having written several emails to them. Their policy seems to be to take your money quickly, then forget you. I am now in the process of going down the legal route to chase them. How can they still be in operation, blatantly ripping off customers? PLEASE DO NOT USE THEM!!!!!!!!!

Falsified test results of Tesla Model S fire for their own benefit. Sickening to see a company falsify safety information.

My experience was with AXA global health insurance in Egypt. My experience is summarized in two main points. 1. The claim department is a disaster, every single claim that i have presented since January has been rejected, with lame justifications. Conclusion, they oversold their reasonability of handling legit claims. 2. No body moves unless the top management interferes! so Egyptian! I encourage each and every person wants to deal with AXA to think a hundred times, they are a waste of money, reflects nothing close to what they sold me during the sales phase and are definitely among the lowest performers in the market (at least to me. They never even opened an investigation to understand what has happened.

its been 3 weeks since the crash (wasn't my fault) I have had no contact back about my claim or about a courtesy car I've called multiple times and all I get back is that someone else will be in contact and nobody does, DO NOT get your car insurance with this company
