“Absolutely satisfied with my Dial Direct renewell car insurance policy. The reduction for my renewell cover this year was reduced sufficiently, that i didn't need to search for (or compare) any alternative Insurance companies.”

“Absolutely exceptional service. Paying for a car that I can’t use for 4 months now. Car effectively stolen by insurers as I didn’t know where it was until yesterday. Minor damage but car written off. Trying to get car back. Passed to different companies. Haven’t received my claim compensation either. Hire car taken off me so paying almost £100 a month for no car. Great insurance.”

“Awful. Charged me £30 for a failed collection. Was set up to renew automatically annually. The card expired 1 month before the 3rd years annual payment was due. They knew the expiry date and failed to tell me. Maybe they deliberately let it happen so they could make more money. Letter arrived, not advising me of a problem, but billing me. I phoned them. Cancelled. Paid their fee. Then 2 weeks later got a letter demanding £20 cancellation fee for immediate payment, or it goes to debt collector. Heavy handed shady outfit. Beware”

“Car insurance company that use continues payment authority and take payments sometimes up to 5 days before their due, shocking customer service and customer relations JP is a muppet who clearly gets paid peanuts so I guess you get I.ots, this car insurance business are aware I’m a vulnerable adult yet they treat me differently and if you payment is a day late they sting you with a £20.00 late payment there is no leeway by this business so my advice if you are thinking of car or home and building’s insurance AVOID AVOID THIS COMPANY, TGE REVIEWS ON TRUSTPILOT CANT BE TRUSTED BECAUSE BUSINESS HAVE BEEN KNOW TO MANIPULATE REVIEWS”

“Insensitive regarding my claim after a burglary and still waiting to hear about my claim after two months. Premium went up a lot but paid as claim ongoing - and they referenced my claim on the new quote despite not paying anything to me.”

“Cancelled my insurance but they refused to action my request and still debited my account. Then in received a threatening letter stating that I was in arrears and they would resubmit the debit order. After my 3rd request in received a letter informing me that my insurance has lapsed and they added a week on the cancellation date. I haven't had a good experience and have therefore moved to another insurer”

“New App is really stressing, I took an Uber to my cousins place on Sat, and it tracked it on the app and ended up being rated as driving at night, this new app is not working for me, yesterday I traveled to church with my sister with her car it also rated me low because I drove long distance,in the morning I went to an estate driving my car when got there I stopped at the gate called her and the app also showed phone usage, no I think it was best when we used to switch ghe app on when we are driving not ghis automatic detecting thing because it's not accurate”
