I have been with Diamond for about 5yrs.When my renewal price in Aug09 was more than it's ever been due to a SP30 fine i decided to cancel(within the renewal window)and go elsewhere.I have since received a letter charging me 58.61 which i dismissed as i no longer had to deal with them.I then received a CCJ for 78.61 this week from a debt collections agency and apparently as i hadn't notified Diamond of a speeding ticket from July 2008 i was being fined.I've read the Car Insurance Guide i got when i joined&any amendments and it specifies any speeding convictions to be told at Renewal not immediately.i'm still awaiting a call back from Diamond.I have faxed off all the info i have to the debt collections agency so they are aware and have put my case on hold for 7 days. I would not recommend Diamond at all!!

I can only really review my experiences of Diamond, and my only experience is the pricing! I have been with Diamond car insurance for six months now (my first six months of driving). I used www.comparethemarket.com to get my quotes for my first car and they came up the cheapest along with their sister company, Admiral. Their prices were very reasonable considering; I was 21, passed my driving test the day before I bought the car, drive an 03 reg convertible, and wanted fully comp insurance. Most companies quoted me £3000 upwards for 12 months - one even quoted me £6000! Diamond however quoted me £1400 including the £85 I opted to pay for premium breakdown ...  Read the complete review

I have had my car insurance with Diamond for around 2 and a half years now. I first signed up with them because they were the cheapest quote I could find for a learner driver with a VW golf, back then my premium if I remember was just under £1000. When I got round to passing my test I was quite annoyed with Diamond as they charged me a fee of over £100 just for passing my test! It was not long until my 18th birthday where I received personalised number plates as a present, I rang up Diamond to change them over and that was an additional £16! I was beginning to wonder if Diamond were really worth sticking to! When renewal time came about I received a letter ...  Read the complete review

I have mixed feelings towards Diamond. As I'm sure like a lot of people, my only reason for changing to diamond for my car insurance was the price. Looking for reasonable priced car insurance when you have had an accident (in which the car was written off during blizzard like conditions) on your records is obviously more taxing and having trawled through comparison sights Diamond were by far the cheapest. Five months into the policy and the unfortunate occurred - thankfully not my fault but a rather careless lorry drive with an unsecure load. Being stranded on the side of a lonely road in pouring rain I phoned diamond, since my car wasn't ...  Read the complete review

Diamond are the best insurance company that I have ever been with! I searched online for a motor insurance quote when my insurance was up for renewal, and they came out as the cheapest. I spoke to them on the phone and they confirmed the quote. I was impressed with the politeness of the person who I was speaking to and I decided to go with them. They sent me all of the documents I needed very quickly. I forgot to send them my proof of no claims, so they rung me. They were very nice and just asked me to send it in as soon as I could. I did this and they confirmed my insurance. After I had been insured with them for about six ...  Read the complete review
