It seemed to be a fairly good price from a company I was comfortable with. You can only tell if an insurance company is good when you make a claim though, hence only four stars!

All went smoothly, despite car insurance being very much a distress purchase. Worthwhile to keep self snd named drivers covered, c/w RAC breakdown assistance. Hoping for an uneventful year.

Just a honest review honestly stay well…

Just a honest review honestly stay well clear there are much better insurance companies out there..after a year of being with the RAC and paying every month yes some payments was late due to how my wages are paid but it always got paid. all of a sudden they have decided that I can't afford to pay monthly payments and they want the whole policy upfront which is about £800... So they don't believe I can afford to pay monthly yet I paid every single month.. now they think I can just stump up £800... Make it make sense... Plus the policy premium they are offering after being with them for a full year with no claims is £3 cheaper... Absolute disgusting way to treat a customer.. they are just the same as most companies out here all they care about is getting new customers and not looking after the one's they've got... Seriously stay clear this will not be the best insurance company if you was to fall on tough times..

Hi Tyrone,

Thank you for taking the time to share your recent experience with us.

It is really concerning to hear how frustrated you are regarding the sudden change to your payment options and the renewal pricing provided after a full year without any claims. We completely understand how upsetting it feels to have monthly payments withdrawn when you have consistently kept your account up to date, especially when balancing payments around your payday. If there is anything further we can look into or assist you with regarding your account details, please feel free to reach out.

You did well, but, I did not.I forgot the exact date of the accident I had, I got the year wrong. I'm happy with the price I paid and I'll probably be back you next time.
