A waste of time for car insurance. You'll spend 20 minutes entering all your details, but in the end you'll be directed to an insurance company webpage where (surprise!) they 'can't find your quote'... See more

Bonkers.ie makes switching easy

Bonkers.ie made the switching of electricity suppliers easy and straightforward. I am very thankful to a young lady called Simone who was amazing and so incredibly helpful.
I would certainly recommend them.

Unable to qoute - Data phishing?

Answered all the questions on their car insurance quote queries page and they were unable to give me a quote - have insurance with other company, have 10+year no claims, have been driving in Ireland for 20+ years, have never been flagged to not insure. Feels like it may just be an easy way to obtain data. Complete waste of time either way...

BONKERS.ie Do not give the cheapest…

BONKERS.ie Do not give the cheapest prices for Broadband . They only Quote for preferred Broadband providers and not the cheapest providers . I asked a cheaper provider why they are not listed on Bonkers and I was told that you must pay Bonkers.ie and that Bonkers.ie wont deal with independent and cheaper Irish broadband providers , I ended up using ruralbroadband.ie as they provided NBI fiber broadband cheaper than those advertised on Bonkers.ie and Ruralbroadband.ie are guaranteed Irish , Its easy to check before committing and read the SMALL Print, In most of the providers BONKERS.ie promote, in the SMALL Print the price will increase by 7.5% TWICE during your contract, This dosent happen with Independent Providers .

This is NOT an independant comparison…

This is NOT an independant comparison website!! Stear clear.
I used Bonkers.ie to "compare Ireland's best insurance deals" (as they say on their website) before renewing my motor insurance.
I received three quotes - ALL from Zurich!! No other provider was listed and Zurich's cheapest quote was €200 more than my existing premium.
I discovered afterwards that Bonkers.ie EXCLUSIVELY deal with Zurich. So they are NOT comparing between providers whatsoever.
Total scam. They should be reported to the Competition Authority or the Advertising Standards Authority.

Your 1st step to reliable and better services

I look at reviews basically slating companies and throwing them under the bus, making you have second thoughts of taking advice from or selecting a service from, I believe when people say they have had issues, but your only hearing one side of the story, I can tell you I have no issues with Bonkers.ie, and only excellent customer service especially from Beth, employee of bonkers went out of her way to help me make the right decision going forward, although I make the final decision which in the first place was a wrong one, but Beth put that right for me, so would I reccomend Bonkers, most definately, it's your 1st step towards a better service, saving you €'s

Bonkers Broker Services

Recently, I had the pleasure of utilizing Bonkers Broker Services to assist and guide me on my journey to purchase a house. I must express my utmost satisfaction and gratitude as they have been nothing short of brilliant from the very beginning until the end. I couldn't be happier with the exceptional support they provided. I want to extend a special thank you to Oliver and his team for their unwavering assistance throughout the entire process, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience. Thanks to their dedication, I can now joyfully call myself a homeowner. My heartfelt appreciation goes out to the entire Bonkers Broker team!

Don't Switch Early

Be careful out there when renewing with Bonkers.ie signed up August 13th 2021, went to renew Aigust 11th 2022, reason as 13th fell on a weekend, hit with €50 cancellation charge by Flogas.
Both Flogas and Bonkers have done a Pontius Pilate nothing to do with me. I was of the opinion that Bonkers.Ie operated similar to a brokerage, regretfully no. They are not regulated by CRU for utilities.
They stated the onus in on the customer to ensure they don't transfer early yet they advise it could take 5/10 days to transfer to a different supplier. Be careful out there and don't get mugged like me.
