I've chosen Poncho because it was recommended by Tesla, the quote was $1300 less than i was paying with RACV and the policy had better coverage for glass and repairs. It's online portal is straight-fo... See more

Renewing a policy is not very user friendly! If you use the same email address as when previously insured, it won't allow you to go any further to get an updated policy! So you have to use a different... See more

Simple

Simple,
Let's hope I'll never use it but you never know
It looks fair and in line with usage, the more you use the more you pay.
Good risk assessment.

Welcome onboard Nadine. We got quite a bit of feedback from Tesla owners on how we could improve our product so we have to share the praise with them too (maybe yourself?).

A relatively painless experience

I’m so happy to have come across Poncho Car Insurance. The process of purchasing the insurance was quite painless and the price was good value for money. I would have no hesitation in promoting Poncho Car Insurance to my friends.

The sign up process is relatively easy…

The sign up process is relatively easy and the premium very competitive. I am a little concerned that the difficulty comes when trying to make a claim (According to your Google reviews) lets hope I never find out.

Had an accident mid-April

Had an accident mid-April, submitted claim online and received a confirmation email. When I called 2 days later to check, they had no record of it. I was then given a list of 3 repair shops. I chose #3, had it looked at and a week later was told they no longer use that shop. Then had to go to the next cloest repairer which was booked out until last 2 days of July. Very frustrating but cannot complain about premium price or excess amount being 2 provisional drivers.

Hi Tejinder, thank you for your feedback. There are a lot of factors to consider when it comes to working out premiums, these range from ones individual to the driver(s) to those based on the vehicle. We’re stoked that Poncho worked out for you. Welcome to the family 🥳
