I have been with Lancaster since 2022 and never had an issue. It's 2024 they are suddenly unable to provide me with a renewal quote. After calling I found out that I cannot get insurance (unless I want to pay over £1000) due to the fact that I only have an MGB and no other vehicle (seriously, WT actual F???). It's also suddenly parked in a car park according to them (none of my details have changed since 2022). After 5 minutes on Go Compare I insured my classic for under £300. I'm not sure what has happened to Lancaster in the last year but they have lost my business for life.

Been with lancaster for a good few years now even though my premium went up slightly each year. 2023 i payed just over £350, 2024 they want over £1000. Not a chance!

Insured my car with Lancaster 2022-2023. Found cheaper cover elsewhere for 2023-2024. Just had an email from them so out of curiosity filled in form. Quote was over £800. I'd already used Compare The Market and had a quote of £320. Needless to say I won't be using Lancaster.

I went through gocompare last year and Lancaster said my car was classed as a classic, I paid £141 for the year recommended to all my friends, now due for renewal £545, nothing has changed, however I wanted to know what renewal was and saw the horrendous feedback from others

Extremely disappointed and amazed that I have sold my classic car within 6 months of new insurance and expected after many years with Lancaster that I would get a refund, but not a penny. Regret now that I had recommended them to the new buyer who did actually insure the car with them! Be aware folks.

Worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. No online facilities and almost impossible to get through to, then if you do, they can never help, you’re told someone will call you back, and surprise surprise no one does.

Be warned - if you insure your car annually with Lancaster Insurance and then have to cancel 50 days into your policy because you change your car and they won't insure it, you won't be due a refund. They just tell you it's tough luck and refer you endlessly to their terms and conditions. I won't be insuring any of my vehicles with Lancaster Insurance again.

I took out an insurance policy with Lancaster Insurance company for £108. When I cancelled after 26 days, due to selling my car, I got zero refund. Ripped off! I will never use them again.

Terrible company to deal with. Ended up being charged the full year amount for 86 days cover after cancelling the policy due to sale of the vehicle. They only 'refunded' 6 months of the premium for 86 days cover and then the cancellation charge convieniently was exactly the amount of that 'refund'. Will never use for any of my vehicles again.

They managed to find me a most excellent price for my classic Landrover insurance, nearly half that of other companies!

Took out the insurance paid for the year, cheap but I have an old car so suited me. Only to be told could not use ncb then told no refund and they were doing me a favour by not charging a cancellation fee. It was them that wanted to charge more money and again me out of pocket, beware and check your no claims bonus is valid with them??
