Darwin motor insurance was an easy choice to make because they quoted the same price for identical cover that I'd paid last year to another company, which wanted an extra £30 for cover this year.... See more

Did a price comparison after my current…

Did a price comparison after my current insurer wanted to raise my premium by a huge amount, despite no changes in circumstances. Darwin came up trumps across four platforms with very competitive prices and great cover. Contacted my current insurer and they couldn’t get close to it. Darwin quotes are only valid for two hours, revisited the following night and it had only risen by £1. I did run quotes at the magic 26 days before it was due, it does work.

My experience was simply using comparison websites to check my current provider renewal against the current market. You were cheapest on one of the websites I used and considerably cheaper than my ‘multi car provider’. Hence the switch.

Easy set up process!

As a new customer to Darwin, and not someone, so far, who has had the misfortune to make a claim, I can only comment on the setting up process. With that in mind, everything was pretty straightforward and easy to manipulate the procedure of obtaining cover.

No problems at all

Easy to access my policy once bought and paid for and auto renewal turned off without huge debate on 'chat' which makes life so much easier! I might be even renew next year if a good premium. Hopefully service just as good if needed

Great car insurance quote

Great car insurance quote, after being with Swinton for many years, your prices were a breath of fresh air.
Web site was easy to navigate also and after a frustrating morning cancelling my existing policy, found your web site and seamlessly joined, and was very relieved.
