Very helpful

Tiana was very helpful in assisting us to change our insurance to another vehicle. Despite having to do everything by email she answered very quickly and was able to do this quickly and efficiently. Many thanks to her for her help.

Insurance

Really happy with the service I have received so far from Arkwright insurance.
Sam Walsh has been really helpful and good in helping with getting my insurance sorted out after a lot of confusion with last insurance. Saved me a lot of stress and time would recommend.

I absolutely agree

I absolutely agree. Avoid using this lot, rude staff and can’t speak to anyone. Have scrapped my van and cancelled my policy, got an Email back confirming this but they deal with this Close Brothers outfit for their finance who are now telling me I’m in arrears with my finance. COMMUNICATION !!! I’m now trying to sort it out via Email again. That’s after all the grief I had trying to set up the policy. Rude staff didn’t want to accept my proof of NCD as it wasn’t on a headed email. It had a ref number and phone number!! Please avoid

Very poor customer service

Very poor customer service. I wanted auto-renewal cancelled and the advisor cancelled the entire policy and then quoted me a much higher price to renew.
I thought they were a decent company but be careful as the staff member I dealt with did not seem to care less and was very defensive. Just hope I never have a claim with them if this advisors attitude was anything to go by.

Do not use this company

Do not use them out of date computer systems taking your information then twist to lower quote once you accept the quote decide your informion isn’t correct and then hold you to random hiking your premium up stay away
Information imputed correctly
Driver reversed in to third party clearly states driver at fault your computer system decides its non fault
Question never asked directly you computer system decides the answer
Your system clearly at fault

Hi Marc,

I am sorry to hear your experience with your quote, however as you can understand we do not determine the quote prices as they come from the insurers themselves and any amend in details can have an impact in quote price which is out of our hands. Insurers use data checking systems which holds information about individuals with a built in scoring system and any details entered whilst quoting will have effect the price if the information given doesn't match what they hold on their system. We will speak to the agent who you spoke to understand in details as to what happened.

Thank You
