One of best

Give u things as standard

I have buisness miles I didn't even need they just do to everyone

 

[arnieboy]

Always been happy with DL.

 

[MegaSteve]

Wouldn't touch them with a barge pole...

 

[backwoodsman]

Haven't used them for a while because I got better prices elsewhere. But they were fine when I did use them.

 

[Imurg]

They've never, to my knowledge, done driving instructor insurance so...no.

 

[pokerjoke]

Just the best company I’ve ever had to deal with.
Big claimer on cars and a massive claim on home insurance and sorted out without hesitation.

 

[jim8flog]

One of a number of companies all under written by UK Insurance Ltd such as Prudential

Have my home insurance with DL and well please with a claim a few weeks ago.

Funny thing is I switched to them from Prudential and got a massive saving for the same policy.

 

[spongebob59]

Sounds like a no brainer, or I could buy the goskippy policy which came in at a third of the price on gocompare ?

Before switching check with your current insurer. They will almost certainly match it or as mine did, better it.

This is the thing that really gets my goat with insurance comapanies. They know full well they can offer you a better deal but just try ripping you off first, its why I change every year just out of principle, I know it doesn't bother them in the slightest but it makes me feel a bit better.
I wish we would do what somw other countries do, hike the cost of road tax but include third party insurance, that way they might suddenly find themselves a bit more competetive when they're not essential.

they won't, even direct or through a broker, best deals are for new customers, no reward for loyalty.

Only ever had to claim once on car insurance, Directline were efficient, responsive and fair.

It seems as if the business plan of some/most insurance companies and many utility companies is to actively prey on the old and vulnerable who do not have the means or knowledge to internet search comparison sites. The costs borne by this community founded on baseless, speculative price increases every year to extortionate levels is a scandal; especially as many of these elderly consumers consistently accept these unwarranted hikes as they feel that remaining ‘loyal’ to their provider is a good thing. Shameful business practice.

Well, this year Hastings did for my house & contents and LV= did for both cars. Over the years, Saga, Privilege and Churchill have done deals for me.

I prefer just accepting the cheaper quote then telling them I'm off as their too expensive.. offer what you want you had your chance

 

[spongebob59]

I'll mention it when I call to cancel.the auto renew, I certainly won't be begging to be put a rate that they should be offering first up.

Always one of the most expensive when I've had a quote from them.

This is what I do.

I suspect it's a good deal as a first time client.
