What happened to Carol Nash? They used to be brilliant, they worked with bikers to understand the insurance you needed and appreciated the nuances of bikes such as modifications etc. and that bikers change their bikes and their policies mid-term.
They used to be personal in their approach, you always talked to a person straight away and they were super helpful.
I just spent an hour walking through endless "press 1" options until I got to a consultant. The line was terrible and I had to repeat myself often. I wanted to transfer my insurance to another bike on a specific day at a specific time, the new bike has modifications.
I honestly felt like I was constrained by tick box answers that didn't take into account we bikers have modifications, new exhausts, power commanders etc. It just was NOT intuitive.
Then after taking the policy, they then returned me to the cancellation department who also charged me an admin fee to cancel the insurance after they charged me an admin fee for setting up the new one against a quote I found! I seemed to have paid them for my own research. They didn't charge me the £50 cancellation fee I would otherwise have been charged. This essentially meant I ended up paying way more than I would have if I had just cancelled the insurance and took the online quote they so helpfully set up for me.....after I found it.
An absolute annoyance and nothing like the old service we all loved back in the day. Last time I will be using them. Shame really, they used to gel with bikers, not have a 3 second delay outsourced call centre who obviously know little about bikes.

Good communication, clear about the quote and the reasons. Likewise the products that accompany the insurance.

Having gone through the process, I took out insurance with Carole Nash for my new motor bike which developed a serious oil leak and was changed for another bike entirely, and then insured, anew. My experience with your staff at Carole Nash has been superb. They have been patient and helpful, taking into account the chopping and changing and are a credit to your company. Without any fuss, I now have my bike insured and ready to ride. Thank-you.

Painful process, I just want to renew my policy but tap here tap there tap again. Awful.

Good company that needs a little TLC with its email comms (misleading, incorrect links, malfunctioning website etc).
That aside it's a really good insurance company for motorbikes. Had to ring customer services but they found me a very good deal (obviously better than the renewal price but that's true with all insurance companies). Would recommend! And hopefully, making things a little easier for customers, I'll up this to 5 stars as the bottom line is I would chose to insure with them.

A great online experience. The whole process was very straightforward. The cost was very competitive and the voluntary excess good. The policy was easy to set up and all of the information was clear and concise. Really good

My initial approach was thro' Quotezone, (therefore you already had the bulk of my details and requirements). The time then spent on the 'phone, working thro' what appeared to be a "Chinese takeaway menu like" robotic system BEFORE being finally connected to a human voice almost prompted me to put the 'phone down and take my business elsewhere. If this is Carole Nash's usual modus-operandi they will not be getting further business from me.

I dealt with a lady called Judy, and she was one of the most helpful and patient people that I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. She explained everything so clearly, hence my 5 star rating

I’ve been insured with Carol Nash for many years and never had an issue. Until June this year when I really needed them. Fortunately or Unfortunately I had their breakdown cover so when I had a puncture abroad I phoned them up to be told I wasn’t covered.
Myself being belt and braces carried a copy of everything, travel insurance,bike insurance, mot and emergency contacts should they be needed.
Obviously I’m not very happy to being told I didn’t brakedown insurance so I forwarded my copy to him. His response oh yes I can see now that you are. Just imagine someone else in my position trying to prove this and argue over the phone to prove yourself, not very helpful at all. In the end a Brakedown vehicle did arrive and take me to a hotel with my bike.
Everything else I had to arrange. Another individual company to collect my bike and transport me to a garage.Never had to claim for anything but when I actually needed it. Service was totally unsatisfactory. Carole Nash as a company I’ve never really had a problem but the people you contract out to need looking at as it gives yourselves a bad reputation. One unhappy customer.

I needed to cancel my policy today after my lease car was returned. After being redirected to a human (Carly) it became quite clear very quickly that i was required to pay approximately £150+ to CN.
Although I was unhappy i maintained politeness, asked for any help, unfortunately there was none forthcoming.
Carly continued to explain i had agreed to this and that when i first signed up (telling me its my fault basically) while copy and pasting various legal text book examples from their policy in between providing no understanding whatsoever in our chat.
of course I understood that it was down to me but the way it was managed was very poor.
When i explained i couldnt afford a lump sum i was advised of a number to call to sort it out before then telling me that if i didnt pay that the debt collectors could be sent around......lovely!

You offered a good product with all that I needed

The man on the phone I think his name was Josh was very helpful and explained everything I needed to know in layman’s terms that you could understand and my insurance was sorted out nice and quickly so thanks and well done

It took no time to change my insurance policy over to the new policy.

Very pleased with the service I got from the insurance company, it did seem a little complex to simply stop insurance on my previous bike & transfer it onto my new bike. I had to cancel my old policy & start a complete new policy, having said that the agent was helpful & got it sorted in one phone call
