Insurance Great
Insurance wise, great price the more vehicles you have. However they only send out notification to renew 15 days to the policy renewing. This isn't great and i would like for it to be longer.

Hello Darren,
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re pleased to hear you’ve found our pricing competitive when insuring multiple vehicles.
To clarify, when your whole policy is due to renew, we send your renewal quote approximately 21 days before the renewal date. However, when an additional vehicle or risk is added mid‑term, the notification you receive is a reminder that it’s joining the policy partway through, rather than a full policy renewal notice.
We’re sorry if this caused any confusion, and we really appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. We’ll certainly take this on board, as we’re committed to continuing to improve this process and make things clearer for our customers. - Courtney

I am having a cataract removed next week and because I disclosed that, it became a major problem and it will not be covered what I understand is a short procedure.
April 22, 2026
Reply from Admiral Insurance
Hello.
We’re sorry to hear about the difficulties you’ve experienced, and we understand how upsetting and frustrating this must feel, especially at a time when you’re preparing for a medical procedure.
When taking out travel insurance, any pre existing medical condition, including conditions where treatment or surgery is planned or pending, does need to be disclosed. In some cases, even procedures that may feel routine or short can be classed as a pre existing condition until treatment has been completed and recovery confirmed. This can affect whether the condition can be covered, as insurers need to consider any increased risk of needing medical treatment while travelling.
We appreciate this isn’t always clear and can come as a surprise, which we’re really sorry about. You can find more information on how pre existing medical conditions are assessed and why they can impact cover here: https://www.admiral.com/magazine/guides/travel/pre-existing-condition
Thank you for sharing your experience, we are always looking at ways to improve and take all feedback on board. - Courtney

7 Months On – Car Still Not Fixed and Complaint Mishandled
I had an accident on 16th September 2025, and as of 23rd April 2026 my car is still not repaired properly — with no resolution in sight.
My car has been in the garage multiple times. On the second visit, it was there for nearly 8 weeks to fix a wrong-colour grille and a dashboard warning light — something I was told was a simple fix. When the car was returned, it had been scratched across the entire body during cleaning, so it had to go back again.
On the third return, there was still a chip on the door, and I was told this would be resolved locally. I have heard nothing further from either the garage or Admiral. After using the car, I also discovered that previously reported issues were still not fixed — scratches near the door hinge and a banging noise every time the door is opened. The car is not in a condition I can return to my leasing company.
At no point has Admiral contacted me to check whether I am satisfied. Every interaction has been me chasing them.
I raised a formal complaint on 25th February and was told this would be properly managed. Seven weeks later, I received a response claiming I had said I was happy with the repairs (which is completely untrue), along with an offer of £75 for an unrelated issue. This response did not reflect my complaint at all.
I also pay extra for a courtesy car, yet every vehicle provided has been unreliable or unsafe — including faulty keys, damaged wheels, and starting issues. I regularly drive my 4-year-old son, so this is extremely concerning.
This situation has had a serious impact on my mental health, causing ongoing stress, sleepless nights, panic attacks, and difficulty concentrating.
From my understanding of UK consumer and insurance regulations, including the requirement to provide services with reasonable care and skill, as well as fair complaint handling standards, this situation falls significantly below what is expected.
Based on guidance from the Financial Ombudsman Service, I believe the level of compensation offered is wholly inadequate. Given the circumstances, I would expect compensation to reflect:
• **Distress & inconvenience** (7+ months of delays, repeated failed repairs, and ongoing mental health impact): £500–£1,000
• **Loss of use / poor repairs** (vehicle not returned to pre-accident condition, multiple returns to garage): £200–£400
• **Courtesy car failures** (unsafe and unreliable vehicles despite paying for this service): £100–£300
This places a fair and reasonable total in the region of £800–£1,200.
At this stage, I am asking for:
* My car to be fully repaired to its pre-accident condition
* Compensation that properly reflects the scale of failures and impact caused
I responded to the complaint outcome 7 days ago and have not even received an acknowledgment.
If this matter is not resolved as a matter of urgency, I will be escalating my complaint to the Financial Ombudsman Service for independent review.
Very disappointing experience.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review. I’m really sorry to read how long and challenging this experience has been for you, and I recognise the frustration and distress you’ve described, particularly in relation to the repeated repairs, communication concerns, and the impact this situation has had on you and your family.
I appreciate you setting out the issues you’ve experienced with the repairs, courtesy vehicles and the handling of your complaint. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and feedback like this is taken very seriously.
To ensure all of the points you’ve raised are fully reviewed and investigated appropriately, I’ve passed your review directly to our complaints department. They will consider the matters you’ve highlighted alongside the existing correspondence and will contact you in due course.
Thank you again for raising your concerns.
