Product Type: Quoteline Direct in Insurance

Newest Review: ... I stress advice, I 'enquired' as to whether I was covered and if so what the process would be. I was told in no uncertain terms that I wasn't covered as I couldn't provide an EXACT date for when the damage occurred. A little odd I thought, however as I was only enquiring I wasn't too bothered. Imagine my surprise when a couple of days after the telephone call I received a letter from the company informing me that my policy had been cancelled.....! Why? It said that due to the nature of the claim (?) they were cancelling the policy! WTF! I rang up and went mad, they said there was nothing they could do for me at that time, and left m[e w... more

Quoteline Direct: Absolutely useless and untrustworthy (327 words)

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!! I used the internet search engines to find the most reasonable quote for home insurance, and came across these clowns. Good premiums, so I set up a policy. I had never made any form of claim before, so after the heavy snow last year damaged guttering and led to damp and mould ingress in two upstairs bedrooms I rang the company for advice. I stress advice, I 'enquired' as to whether I was covered and if so what the process would be.

A fine old mess! (2201 words)

Our car insurance was up for renewal at the end of January 2005. We had previously been with the AA but felt that there were more competitive prices to be had. Although I don't drive, I take charge of the day to day running of things like Insurance and bills, so it was my mission to find a cheaper quote for my partner. At the time we had an M Reg Ford Escort and paid £550 per year Fully Comprehensive. I had previously used Insurance search engines such as Confused.com and Money supermarket but felt that I may get a better deal by dealing directly with the Insurer. I initially used Google to search for 'Cheap Car Insurance quotes'. The search ...  Read the complete review

Quoteline Direct: Quoteline aka Wilsons Insurance (173 words)

On the search for ever cheaper motor insurance, I came accross Wilsons. We got a quote online, which was so favourable we signed up. The first years cover went without a hitch. After renewal we started having a few little troubles. Our policy price went up, then two payments went out of our account on the same day with no explanation, apology or refund. To contact them by phone is very expensive. The prefix to their phone number is 0870, and so premium rate. The minimum phone holding time was ten minutes, the maximum fifty minutes (average fifteen to twenty minutes). The operators on the whole were helpful to the best of their knowledge. We ...  Read the complete review

I have recently lost my job and so when my car insurance premium became due in July and my insurers had upped the price by £20 despite me having another year's no claim's bonus, I decided to shop around. Time was no objective here, so i checked out just about every car insurance site that Google could find. My current insurers had quoted £220. Quoteline provided me with a quote of £120. They had a good list of insurers that they used and the site ran quickly and smoothly. My main problem was that I could not buy on-line. What a pain it is to input all that information, get a quote, and then not be able to buy the policy. ...  Read the complete review

Quoteline Direct: A sense of false savings (276 words)

My brother, heavily into fashion, has a saying; "It's not how much you pay, it's how much you save", and my little story certainly testifies to that. I decided to try the internet for insurance quotes. The Quoteline Direct site in particular was very thorough indeed, then quoted me £1,200 - about £200 more than the others. I moved on. Two days later, I recieved an email from them, saying that there were questions that I hadn't answered, would I like to call them on the telephone - I could save up to £400. Well, I called them back, and after about 10 minutes of confirming my original answers ("yes, I'm still 25; yep, still ...  Read the complete review
