I would not recommend Churchill car insurance to anyone, I reversed out of a supermarket car space( as everyone does) and a car opposite parked in a disabled bay( not disabled) reverse into the side of my passenger side door as I had already completed reversing and wa about to move forward. I had 2 witnesses that provided a statement to say it was the other persons fault and Churchill refused to pay out saying I was at fault for reversing. I lost £250 and then every further insurance had to declare an accident that THEY claim I was half responsible. Make sure if you are insured with Churchill you never reverse as apparently this isn’t allowed. Shocking company

Had car insurance with them, then after a driver had driven into us they basically left us to sort out all the courtesy car and garage repairs having to take lots of days of work to sort it. So rude and unhelpful. And to top it all we were left without a car on the day of our holiday costing us taxis to get to the airport

Rubbish company, didn't send renewal notifications to me so when I called a day after to get it renewed (14 days leeway called on 15th day after insurance ended) they said it would have been a renewal of £535 but we'll have to do a new quote that came out well over £1000. There appears to be no recourse, I have 9 years no claims and paid in full every year never claimed through them. They clearly don't care about their customers and just try to get as much money out of you as possible. Needless to say they lost another customer

Please avoid this company, I have just had a claim go through but within 12 months of the work being carried out another issue related to the claim has been declined by the insurance company. Its difficult to understand why this company has decided this route but they have left my house in a dangerous position with children living there. Churchill have left me with no fire escape from the back of the house. I will take this company to the financial ombudsman service to explain how Churchill operate. Churchill are a disgrace ,they have taken away my no claims bonus for a £100 excess and don't want anything to do with the claim after the excess has been paid. From this experience I would never recommend this dodgy company. They send workmen out to your house and don't put dust sheets down to protect your carpet. I would expect that any work being carried out has a 12 month warranty but not Churchill. I am left furious by Churchill ,who don't have any problem in leaving my insurance work like this. Don't touch this company they are such a scam company.

A 50% increase in car insurance premium with no explanation from one year to the next with no change in details is unacceptable. The attitude was "take it or leave it" we are not interested in being helpful.

I have been a loyal customer with Churchill for at least 8 years insuring both my van and car with no claims during that time. I noticed that the premiums were increasing quite a lot. Last year I saved over £100 on my van insurance moving to Hastings. Before I changed, I called Churchill to see if they could come down on their quote but they were not interested. Customer loyalty with this company does not exist. It has now come to renew my car insurance, this has just increased from £440 to £501. Hastings quote for the same car is £345....a saving of £156. So despite having a 2 car discount with Churchill, their premiums have become much higher and don't come close to the competition in my case, so will never consider this company again.

I have a car, house and van policy with Churchill and I was always happy with the service. Unfortunately, the van insurance is now administered by Brightside Insurance Services Ltd, so Churchill is only on the letterhead, the service stops there. Brightsides first act was to take away my 9 years mirrored NCD orginally set-up by and honoured by Churchill as a long-term customer, I had 4 yrs of my own too. When my empty and parked vehicle was collided with by a stolen car being blocked in unsuccessfully by police the cost was my excess and two years NCD. I also had to manage the entire claim myself because the vehicle was leased and had to be mended by a Ford approved repair centre in accordance with the lease. Churchill/Brightside Insurance couldn't offer a Ford approved repair centre. The legal cover I had took my details but then never responded beyond that and in addition, I had vehicle replacement cover, the vehicle offered was a car, not much use for a business. A poor and costly experience after years of good service, so much for loyalty.

Stay clear of this horrible insurance company. They have an Absolutely discusting attitude and shocking customer service. I had a policy voided for making a silly mistake which has now made my life so much more difficult when trying to get insurance. They also kept my premium.. Ofcourse. Stay clear of them. They do not care about their customers just the profit. I will be advising everyone I know to stay clear of this horrible company.

The worst car insurance company I have been with! I originally decided to use Churchill as they offered me a really good deal, how ever i soon found them very hard to deal with. After having set up a direct debit alongside the direct debits set up for the 5 other individuals i have insured with Churchill they lost all paperwork for the direct debit and was unable to receive payment. I made payment over the phone and again filled out a direct debit form which ONCE AGAIN went missing! This ofcourse was my fault and as i received no calls or mail regarding the issue assumed everything was fine. However i received a call informing me my insurance was canceled and i had a fee to pay. One week later without any notice I received a letter from a debt agency as it had been passed onto them! Be wary when taking out with Churchill they are there to make a quick sale and are unattached to the well fair of their customers.

If you are hoping to take out car insurance with an honest, trustworthy, reasonably priced company stay away from Churchill. I have had an experience with them recently which has put me off for life. I claimed for vandalism/ damage done to my car where I was not at fault and paid £400 excess toward the repair. When I subsequently cancelled my policy with Churchill having found a much better deal elsewhere - cancellation was confirmed then I found to my utter disgust that my bank account had been debited without my consent to the tune of almost £300 without prior notice or warning by Churchill, I consider this debit when my contractor with Churchill had been terminated- THEFT why take out insurance cover with a company that is a THIEF protect yourselves stay away from CHURCHILL

windscreen replacement provider is a joke surely. Contacted them today to replace my cracked windscreen,and yes the crack obscures the view from the drives seat and I have to wait 9 days for the replacement.This is just unacceptable. Do Churchill honestly think that is a reasonable response ?.Perhaps they would like to refund 9 days insurance cost while the car is unusable.Never waited this long before, same or next day was usual.Doubt if I will renew with them again if this is the standard of customer care!

Totally disgusting company.Will never used them again and strongly advise anyone looking for a company that keeps it's advertised promises. Quick to take your money, but when it comes to paying out claims , recovering your excess after an accident that was the other drivers fault , good luck. Had my vehicle declared a total loss after an accident on 04/03/2018, today being 20/03/2018 and all I have received from this shocking company is notification that my NCB has been reduced by two years.

Horrendous customer service. They charge you to change your address and then try some lame excuse that they make no profit from it. How can changing 3 lines cost cost money. Not one other single company has charged me to change my address when i moved. They have no interested in retaining customers. Go else where - they are not worth your loyalty.
