“Excellent service from them. Had a no fault accident last month and they were excellent with support and sorting out solicitors getting fixed and all! Well done Co op!”
“We have been with the co-op insurance…
We have been with the co-op insurance for many years, we have currently a car insurance, and a camper van which we purchased last year. The insurance ran out on the 16th Aug, but we had not received a renewal notice. I called today to renew, and was told as the policy had lapsed I had to start the process as if it was a new policy, I queried why when they had all our details . Also I stated that we had never received the documents so not really our fault. After going through all the normal questions which took over half an hour , only to be told that they would no longer insure us. I asked to be put through to a manager as the chap could not give me an explanation as to why they would no longer honor the quote. I would imagine I was on the phone for well over half an hour, when he eventually came back to me, he still couldn't
give me a reason as to why they are now refusing to offer us insurance, and that a manager would could me back within 24 - 48 hours, which is not acceptable as this would leave my van un insured. I doubt very much the renewal notice was ever sent out as they do not want our business, shame on the co-op their good name has gone down the pan, I will not use them again, and when my car insurance is due for renewal I will go elsewhere.”
“Until 2020 they were good. They've changed underwriters now and are awful. Renewal letter 1 was +60% increase. Renewal letter 2 was 18% lower than letter 1 (guess they're haemorrhaging customers). Called to "see what they can do" and it was +158% of the previous year (no change in policy except INCREASING excess). These guys can't do customer service, but worryingly it seems they can't even do basic math either”
“I guarantee you won’t find a worse insurance policy. They force you to have a black box, which they then make you pay £90 to have it removed. Also it punishes you EXTREMELY harshly; the price of your policy is constantly increased and it includes a curfew. There lenience is pathetic, I started working night shifts during my time and they refused to make a change to my policy and just continued to lower my score and increasing the price of my policy. There customer service is horrendous, it’s like talking to a brick wall. They may as well be scammers. They don’t care about your safety or well being. Their goal is money and that’s all they consider.”
“absolutely waste of space. They wrote my car off and when I wanted to negotiate the price to market value they sent my query without informing me to theier so called complaint department. They even gave me less than the price book for identical car. Avoid at any cost”
“Hi I have car insurance with you. Tho because of Colvin 19 I’ve hardly used my car. So I hope my renewal price for my car insurance won’t go up but comes down......Eric”
“This has to be the worst insurance company i have ever dealt with. My wife spent 40 minutes on the phone trying to pay the renewal and amend certain details. The person she spoke to went to talk to his boss twice and never came back!,
We got a quote from Esure and saved money for the same amount of cover. I have to say that we had a similar bad experience dealing with the Co-operative Bank a few weeks ago. Will not use any Co-operative company again.”
“Terrible company stay away and Use another company.
Taken 3yrs to sort out my claim and still not sorted. They have left the house in a state and will not finish the works as they say the work they've done is up to standard. I have a crack in the centre of my wall the staircase is a mess and even after an independent structural surveyor recommend the works to be redone they have argued it. I'm now in process of going to the Ombudsman and taking them to court for the costs and to complete the works. So if you don't want to wreck your house and spend your own money putting it right then stay away.
I would give minus stars if I could.”
