I’ve been with AXA for many years, and overall I’ve been very happy with their service. However, I do have one concern. I believe loyal, long-term customers should be treated much better. Instead of i... See more

Colossal waste of time. Took out a car insurance policy on 12th of July. Paid for it. When logged into my account the system said ‘pending - try again in 30 minutes’ and stayed this way for 5 days. Multiple calls through to Axa who kept reassuring me that the policy would go through and be honoured. Eventually I see a refund in my account and phone up again (the third time of sitting on hold for over 45 minutes) - and they finally informed me that the policy hasn’t gone through due to a technical problem. Well what an outrageous waste of hours of my life. This company is poor beyond belief. Thank you for wasting my time and I’ll be sure to never use your services ever again. Ridiculous.

My call was for a windscreen replacement, I was put through to Autoglass, a three week wait time, very unaccomodating with timings, and not willing to change appointments even though they had been told the car needed to be driven at 4pm the appointmentthey gave was 2 45 to 5.45.
I went to a different company that fitted a new screen within 24 hrs, great service that I would happilyuse again and it was £100 cgeaper in total than Autoglass for tge same specification screen.
To be told by Axa it was not an authorised company even though it was a national company and I can only claim back £100 of the £546 I paid.
I was also told Axa deal with 3 glass companies but was only made aware of one, the online system gives no option but Autoglass so how the other two are accessed I have no idea, Autoglass are far from a great company with my many experiences with them.
I then I was told my policy would now be amended because of the £100 claim to reflect this.
Poor show Axa, you dropped the ball on this one.
Could do a lot better.

Easy and simple transition of changing my insurance.

In a previous telephone call, I asked about the procedure when purchasing a new car and selling the existing BMW, I was told this was very simple and AXA would provide insurance for both cars for 1 month.
I agreed a sale of my existing BMW, then I found a replacement Mercedes which I inspected and purchased, went online to transfer the insurance to the new Mercedes because it needed to be insured. I then was asked to apply for temporary cover for my existing BMW, however, that cover was not available.
I then telephoned AXA, first, I was told that the insurance on my existing BMW would continue until midnight that day and, therefore, I was able to drive it to the buyer about 75 miles away.
The AXA agent then asked me to hold, whilst she consulted her manager, following which I was told that the insurance of my existing BMW had now ended and I would have to find temporary insurance from a third party.
The seller of the new Mercedes had been willing to drive the Mercedes, to accompany me whilst I drove my existing BMW to the buyer of the BMW, then I could have handed the BMW to my buyer and driven home in the Mercedes.
Unsurprisingly, the seller of the Mercedes was unable to wait all day for the insurance to be resolved. I then had to drive 75 miles to the buyer of the existing BMW to give him the keys, this was on the evening of the England -v- Mexico match and, therefore, he was unable to collect the BMW that evening.
The next day, I had to collect the buyer of the BMW and drive 75 miles to the car park in which I had left the BMW and also pay for him to arrange temporary cover for that day.
Overall, I drove 150 odd unnecessary miles, I wasted several hours of my time, all because AXA was unable to provide temporary cover on the existing BMW for a couple of hours after purchasing the new Mercedes.
I shall not be renewing my AXA car policy and/or my AXA home policy when they are due for renewal.
