Just dumped the horror that was Hastings Direct and moved to Privilege. What a breath of fresh air, easy and quick to contact them, great prices, no charge to make changes, good cover and superb staff on the phones. Couldn't be happier

Got a quote by Go Compare. Ring to them. Really nice person answered and unfortunately said that I need to wait hour or a bit more to see my quote. Strange. Prefer to by insurance by phone when you can ask all questions.. Bought but seems will be problems....

Wanted me to pay a cancellation fee but without being able to confirm how much the pro-rata rebate would be... How could I make an informed decision with only 1/2 the information? I wasn't bothered about the rebate as such as there was only 6 weeks remaining on the policy but I did want a NCD certificate which they refused to issue until I paid the £53 cancellation fee.. I realise the cancellation fee is in the T&Cs but how can they not provide the rebate amount at the same time?

They Offer me a renewal policy of £2100, when I have found an exact copy of the policy as a new customer for them for, £707.82. Then make me wait nearly an hour on the phone to get the lower quote....

""Having been a Privelage customer for 2 years, I received a renewal quote for £590 which I was pleased with. Unfortunately I had to take my car back to the dealership therefore had no car for 3 weeks therefore I cancelled my insurance but said i would return, when I finally bought a new car (which was identical to previous car) I called up expecting a similar quote only to be told that I was now being treated as a new customer. All my information was the same and they quoted me £1019. When I queried this I was told that there was nothing they could do. I bought the same insurance with Esure for £519. I will never use privelage again and would urge you to look elsewhere.

After 28 year with privilege i would never ever go with them again. The way i have been treated is disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!!! After an accident that was not my fault The price they put on my car The bullying way they talked to me The lies they say. The way they try to bully me into a corner with the higher car saying. Saying they are taking it away as you don't excepted are price!!!!! I am a self employed childminder i need a car so they what until all the children are back at school. They say we are hear for you no!!!! They are hear for themselves. Well they are losing three policies. So after 28 year i am going to the Ombudsmen and i will never use Privilege OR DIRECT LINE and i will be telling all my facebook friends and ALL other childminders and i will be putting my feelings in writing to PACEY [PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR CHILDCARE AND EARLY YEARS ] TO make sure THAT OTHER CHILD CARE PROFESSIONALS know that if they need a good insurance company DO NOT USE PRIVILEGE OR DIRECT LINE INSURANCE we will be taking both car insurance and the house insurance off them ASP So they now leave me with no car and no money AND the possibility of losing my business of 18 years. SO IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A INSURANCE COMPANY TO LOOK AFTER YOUR HOME AND CAR DON'T USE DIRECT LINE OR PRIVILEGE.

Due to the purchase of a new car, I wished my "old" car (insured by Privilege) to be insured in my wife's name. After a telephone conversation with Privilege discussing my requirements I received incorrect documents. Following up on the error, I was given a revised quote which was more than double that of other quotes received. I cancelled the policy and am now due a pro-rata refund on the policy based on the remaining insurance period which has been agreed by Privilege. After 5 telephone conversation and a letter of complaint this matter is still not resolved and I have not received the refund due. The matter has now been running for over 2 months. If Privilege cannot handle the simple task of a refund which they acknowledge is due, they cannot be trusted with an insurance claim. This company makes commitments but does not follow through, I don't trust them and will not deal with Privilege in the future.

Ordered July 2016 as seemed good value. Simple quick ordering process and documents quickly received. I have not made any claims so was surprised to find that for the next year my premium was to rise by 25%. Had a quick look on Direct Line and found that for my previous Privilege premium I could obtain like-for-like insurance plus accident recovery and a taxi home for the forthcoming year. Ordered this from Direct Line and cancelled via telephone with Privilege who accepted my cancellation with no fuss.
