“I was charged £229 for a change of address. When I said that wasn't fair and how can they charge that much he said because they can and if I didn't pay they would cancel my insurance. I don't know how trading standards can allow this.”

“I have chosen this insurance because it seemed the best option in terms of services and price. After one year the price went up and I asked why, the answer because my car is valuable. This makes sense? And they did not let me know in advance. Later I had an accident, it was not my fault, I took pictures and collected information from the other vehicle. Privilege did not pay any attention to my case that I had to pay my share and more the price went up because I was the one responsible for the accident. How do you think I feel, not being protected by the insurance company from which I have been paying £83 and now £115 plus £ 50 for canceling the insurance ...”

“Never made a claim with them but have been insured with them for 5 years. I'm a bit lazy with renewals and just let it roll over usually. I've just bought a new car and went on comparison sites to get an idea how much. I can get the same cover with more benefits for nearly £400 less”

“Disgusting company! High prices are not justified, not qualified staff. After the cancellation of the insurance policy, they still continued to withdraw money from the bank account. Very negative experience.”

“We had two cars insured by Privilege & as one was no longer required we sold it. We informed Privilege of this & were very surprised & disgusted on being told by Privilege that there would be a cancellation charge of £53, yes, that's correct, £53!!! HOW THE HELL CAN PRIVILEGE JUSTIFY £53 FOR PRESSING A FEW BUTTONS ON A COMPUTER KEYBOARD?????? As former loyal customers of Privilege, guess who we will be going to when the other car is up for renewal........ If I could have given no stars I would have done.”

“My wife has just sold her car as having two (both insured with Privilege) one was not now being used so it had to go. We were somewhat surprised & disgusted to be told that there would be a cancellation fee of £53, yes that is correct, £53. HOW THE HELL CAN PRIVILEGE JUSTIFY £53 FOR PRESSING A FEW BUTTONS ON A COMPUTER??????? Having been customers of Privilege for some years, a bitter pill to swallow. Guess who we will be insuring the other car with when it comes up for renewal........”

“I had an accident in October 2018. Now, OVER 5 MONTHS LATER, I am still waiting for my claim to be sorted. I was hit on a roundabout by a learner driver and I was able to give dash cam evidence to support my claim. In 5 months i've not received a single letter or call from Privilege. I have rung them numerous times and end up speaking to a call centre in India where no one seems to speak English properly or know how an English roundabout works. Now I've received a letter from the other partys solicitor saying I have to pay £800 for their clients costs. I think the ombardsman will be my next port of call. **DON'T GET INSURANCE FROM THESE COWBOYS**”

“Waited several days to get my windscreen replaced, had a text 5 days later to say engineer would be with me between 9.00 and 11,30. 12.30 and nothing, called autoglass not very helpful could not even contact engineer. If you are going to be late let the customer know it only takes a minute and at least 'we' know. Wasted morning and perhaps all day.”

“I paid £1600 for one year for my son and I. No accidents , no claims. My son buys his own car costing £2000. Your insurance is £10,000 for my son. Disgusting and laughable. So much rewarding good loyal customers. The experience will be shared as it beggars belief.”

“To be honest they DO charge a fair bit, just cancelled my renewal with them after managing to get the same deal 350 quid cheaper elsewhere, I never had to make a claim from them, but all my communications with them were pretty great to be honest, Big up to Ejiro who i talked to on my cancellation call, really helpful and a nice dude !”

“The worst insurance company I ever had. When I cancelled them because I sold car, they charged me 76 pounds despite that the month I cancelled has been paid.”

“I wish I could give them zero star. I recently went on a comparison website and got the cheapest quote with privilege for my home insurance. I rang them and spoke to one of their agents. I noticed straight away he was very rude, arrogant, disruptive, abrupt and disrespectful.... He was trying everything to stop me from buying the insurance. He called me silly and a liar during the call. He had a very strange, unfriendly & unwelcoming tone to his voice. When I complained about his behaviour, he decided to terminate the call!! I was calm respectful and reasonable during the call, I was only trying explain myself, he had no reason to terminate the call. At one point I felt harrassed and wasn’t sure if it was for real or I had dialled the wrong number but he had all my details so it was definitely privilege insurance. I was in a shock & I discussed this incident with my friend and she said she warned me about this company and said she had the same experience with the same agent. This is when I was giving them business and buying insurance with them you can imagine what to expect if one had to make a claim!!!! Stay away from them.”
