Incredible service and fast
I would absolutely recommend Abbeygate’s services, really top service. Francisco Borba who assisted me with an initial quote and finally car insurance coverage was incredibly friendly and super helpful to deal with.
Ahead of viewing a vehicle for purchase I received a quote for comprehensive insurance for a modern classic car (2001 Porsche) at a very good price and when I had decided to purchase I was insured with the policy via email within 20 mins and ready to drive away.
Francisco was incredibly prompt with email and WhatsApp communications. Hopefully I don’t need to test the policy in future but the service in getting setup is really top notch.

Trustworthy
Reliable, and trustworthy personal service from staff, especially Maria Reis. I had a personal and family tragedy ,during the period of Insurance renewal, but Maria demonstrated patience and understanding during a period where I could not renew as quickly as normal. All business was conducted in a very professional and considerate way
