“Given clear instructions how to proceed with my claim.The company were to carry out the repairs contacted me very quickly and I had my car uplifted within a couple of days and the courtesy car was dropped off at the same time. My car was returned very soon to advise me that the job had been completed. The work was carried out to a high standard. I would have no hesitation in recommending RIAS to friends.”

“My accident was caused by someone hitting me in the rear.( was stationary at the time). The lady concerned admitted liability and was very sorry. I contacted RIAS immediately on 25th July, although they handled the claim efficiently ,they have not contacted me since, and my car is still not repaired completely.”

“Claimed for damage to roof. Claims adjuster came three days after appointment day due to daughter being hit with cricket ball while playing in torrential rainfall. After making numerous excuses including a photo taken from more than 30 metres away he rejected my claim. Roofer's later came and after a proper examination told me that tile's were cracked either due to storm or seagull's repeated landings. I then submitted a claim for water damaged furniture in my bedroom. I was told that because the furniture was fitted it was classed as buildings not contents and therefore had already been rejected. Using this criteria I've worked out that only my sitting room is covered as all other rooms also have fitted furniture. Don't touch this shower of xxxx with a bargepole. George Sampson”

“Very difficult to deal with. They used erroneous data to link me to a non fault claim on another policy on which I was a named driver. Repeated calls and documents from the other insurer could not get this straight. In the end I was forced to pay the increased premium to secure the insurance. You get caught between different departments who don't communicate properly. They have promised to refund me when the information is sorted out. We will see. And now two weeks later a letter saying because of my unpaid balance of £0.00 (Yes really) that they are cancelling my insurance, with a warning of the legal implications of this. 20 minutes on hold to get through to be told this was an error (You don't say). And that I am insured. Had to escalate to get them to agree to put that in writing. I hope I don't get a claim.”

“Poor service, if you want to make a claim, be prepared to be pro-active. There not interested in paying out. Get onto the phone constantly otherwise youll never hear from the processed claim. Despite assurances they will keep you updated, they never get in contact. Alls they are interested in is your MONEY! AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!!!!”

“Keep getting ' fliers' from RIAS, stating that their car insurance policies start 'from'£160.00 Got a quote for my twelve year old ford focus estate,maximum no-claims-bonus and a clean driving license for fifty years. Lowest quote offered was in excess of £380.00 Would be very interested in finding out, exactly what make and model of car that cover for £160.00 could be obtained. Perhaps examples of this should be made compusury, on their letters.”

“0 stars wasn't an option for this despicable company! Tried to charge me an extra £200 for a non fault claim over two years ago. Spoke to several advisors to get it resolved and they assured me that i was insured, to ignore any correspondence as further action will only be taken when they phone me. Despite them telling me I was to ignore letters, I rung and spoke to them immediately when i received one. I was assured again that i was insured and not to worry. Received an email on 15 May telling me my policy was cancelled on 28 Apr. First i'd heard about it. Read the reviews on here. How many companies have one star reviews throughout. I'm currently seeking legal advice for compensation. Save yourselves the hassle and avoid like the plague. Joke of a company. Hope they go bust.”
