This company are a total and utter rip off. No garage in SE London would accept their warranty, they just laughed at me, now l know why. Quintin Wilson needs to be put in front of the courts he is a crook pure and simple. I took the car to their garage and have been ripped off from day one. They have tried every trick in the book to not pay for the repairs with hideous excuses. This company are only a third party company for Prestige who dictate cost and labour charges. I couldn't find a garage less than £65 per hour labour charges even though they sold me a policy up to £35 per hour! BEWARE!! You will have to pay the extortionate extra labour costs and end up paying for most of the work like l did. Run for the hills do not give these people a single penny, poke yourself in the eye with a very sharp stick believe me it's less painful!

They don't answer questions directly, don't pay out on claims, mug off their customers, website doesn't allow you to submit complaints. I've written directly to this Quinten Willson guy, but doubt I'll get a response. Was told to take my car to a garage that doesn't work with Warranty Wise, and pay for it directly.

Took a warranty out with this company, not worth the paper it’s written on , they book the car in a garage 16 miles away as I couldn’t find a company local to me as they all said the same thing can’t get paid off them ! The garage checked the car over as there was a problem with the differential you could still drive the car but was a noise, car a bmw 84 thousand the differential should have a life of 200 k , so there is a fault with it , there answer was wear and tear your not covered? But if it went bang ? Would be covered? But it wouldn’t as it’s wear and tear? Or a write off as the engine would be a smashed !!!! Now as it was there choice garage as nobody round here in Macclesfield would touch them have left me with a thousand pound bill and I’ve got to drive up to 32 miles to collect my car once fixed as they didn’t want to know

Absolutely useless cover provided by warranty wise. I had some lights show up on my car. Took it in to the garage and was told its the ABS sensor that needs replacing as well as the bearing. The garage put the claim forward to warrantywise who I have gold level cover with. Warranty wise rejected the claim stating that its due to corrosion and that's an exclusion on the policy. I can't understand how a sensor can be classed as faulty due to corrosion. This is something they use to reject most claims. Pointless cover which isn't worth paying for. The positive reviews they have are due to offering customers incentives to write reviews. Earlier this year they sent me an email offering a £10 amazon voucher to write a review on Trust Pilot.

Called numerous occasions to have boiler serviced as per cover. No responses. Now 4 months in and still waiting for call back. They are happy to draw on monthly installments but less happy to undertake any works as per contract agreement.

I tried to make a claim when I first bought my car The door release mechanism had snapped in one of the rear doors I notified Warrantywise of the problem and they advised me to take it to a dealership The highly reputable Vauxhall dealership tried for two days to contact them but got no response On the third day I needed to use my car so I had to authorise the repair - as it was unsafe to drive without the door being able to be opened - especially with young family in the back The repair I had to pay for myself So I will not be renewing my warranty with a bunch of cowboys They should be ashamed

STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY…it’s a scam…they take your money and refuse to fix the issue, you will be better off just saving every month instead of paying these people because it’s a waste. Also, any good reviews you see are written by their own staff. DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE…..SCAM ARTISTS

Had my car warranty for 4 months with them, after 2 months engine flashing lights on dashboard. Took it to the garage for diagnostic and it was a misfire cylinder, contacted the Warrantywise and after 4 weeks they decided to send someone to inspect it. In the end they decided no to cover the cost of repair. They said that the problem is old and they don’t cover it. So I am paying the insurance for nothing, how do you prove that the fault on the cylinders car is old Biggest scammers I came across in my entire life. I should have read the reviews before. Avoid this company people, because you will regret it when you have to make a claim.

Absolutely agree with the reviews but unfortunately I have already be coned. I paid over 500 pounds but when my company dealer JCT600 made a claim yesterday, it was plainly regretted that it is not covered. The parts claimed were actual parts of the Drive Train which is covered as a whole but even then it was regretted. I was actually expected the same reply after reading the reviews. My sincere advice to all potential customers would be to avoid this company at all cost unless you want to throw away money.

Con Artists, they take your money and when time to claim will find a reason to decline it, unhelpful agents who don't keep you updated. Never buy a policy from them, they have fake reviews to entice you to buy policy, don't fall for it.

This company will say the part is covered and then work their way out of any work required for various reasons. An awful company that take your money and won't pay out for anything. Save your money and put it towards any potential repair. I will tell everyone I know never to use them. A shocking organisation. Other reviews suggest a similar experience. I suspect in a few years this company won't exist.

My strong advice is not to take out any cover with this company. During the sales call they will convince you almost everything is covered under their warranty however after my car experienced various faults they refused to pay out on anything even though the engineers at the main dealers repair garage confirmed that these faults should be covered under any standard warranty. I am currently taking legal action against the Warrantywise to try to have this matter dealt with fairly. Their "cover" is absolute con, I was offered warranty by the main dealer at a slightly higher price & I really wish I had taken this out. Please don't waste your money here.

I would not recommend warrantywise to anyone. I purchased the warranty in good faith but when my car broke down I was told that it is a common fault with the gear box and they refused to repair it. An absolute con. Do not buy!

Typical corporate sharks. Ignore the reviews from other sites it’s obviously fabricated. Avoid this company. Absolute conmen. They find any loophole to not pay out. We supplied photos, videos, receipts, and even some mechanics to back our claim but still it’s not enough. We are also in the process of using legal action to get our money back. Positively avoid this company!

Apsolutely shocking service from this so called company. Sent my van into a garage which warrentywise recommended, Warrentywise said they would send a "Gearbox Specialist" to inspect parts so he could give the go ahead to get my van fixed, was told I would have my van back within 3/4 days, 4 wks later my van is still sitting in the garage waiting for someone to give the go ahead to get fixed, they told me I would have a courtesy van until mine was fixed but this didn't happen until wk 3 and then had a call to say I need to take van back as they only authorised it for 7 days, I then gave the go ahead to get my van fixed after wk 4 because in self employed and need my van, because I did this warrentywise have declined my claim saying " its not in there policy for me to give the go ahead and so have declined my claim by email as they couldn't be bothered to call me and speak in person, now im £1411 out of pocket, this warranty company is an apsolute joke and I would stay clear of them, find a other company who actually does what they are supposed to do, I wouldn't touch these people with a very long barge pole, apsolute joke, im now in the process of legal action to get my money back

Rude customer service and unprofessional unnecessarily abrupt emails (and this was for a claim they were actually paying out so not contentious or difficult) admin team either wonderful or down right rude and aggressive in tone when asking for certain documentation to support claim. Felt like I was being shouted at by “admin support”

Do not touch this company... My van went to a garage which warrentywise recommended for a gearbox change, was told I would have my van back within 3/4 days, 4 wks later my van is still sitting in the garage they recommended after telling me that a "Gearbox Specialist" was going to inspect parts and give the go ahead to get replaced, this "Gearbox Specialist" never turned up, surprise, after they told me for wks he was on his way. Warrentywise said I was entitled to a courtesy van until my van was fixed but that didn't happen until wk 3 of my van being in the garage and then had a call to say I had to take it back after 7 days. In the end as I'm self employed and needed my van to make a living just like these people at warrentywise I told the garage to replace the gearbox and I would pay and then sort it out with Warrentywise after it was done. Warrentywise response was "its not in there policy for me to give instruction to get my van fixed which was stuck in a garage which they recommended for 4 wks doing nothing while I was loosing money" so my claim was declined, This company is an apsolute joke and wouldn't touch them even if there was no other warranty company around, BEWARE, STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY, YOU ARE WASTING YOUR TIME AND MONEY, I CANNOT BE MORE CLEARER

More expensive than a BMW top level warranty, and even after I told them were too expensive, they still continued to call me despite me telling they were more expensive than the dealer warranty, and by some margin, twice as much!!!!!!! More sales focussed than customer focus. I will avoid in future.
