Endsleigh Insurance

I have held car insurance through Endsleigh since I was a student, 20 years ago.

Ok, I know they were never the cheapest out there, but there was never that much in it & the ease of renewal whilst working full time etc seemed to make up for the couple of quid extra.

This year my renewal wanders around and being on holiday from work, I decide to do a bit of online investigation into other companies.

I have over 12 years NCB and have never had any driving convictions; imagine my surprise when I managed to get a quote that replicated my current insurance for over £200 cheaper than Endleigh quoted me.

Give them their due, Endsleigh tried, but the nearest they could get was still £120 more than Diamond

A 20 year relationship over in 30 minutes......need to go check out the buildings & contents insurance now.

An Insurance company from hell!!!!!!. I registered my vehicle with Endsleigh in Feb, they seemed to have a good deal. Made the payment and then found out that actually my current car insurance does not run out until may. Called them back two days later to request for a refund as its within the 14 days mark and to my horror! it took them not one or two weeks to cancel it, but over a month. I have called the center up numerous times, day and evenings, running up my phone bill, but then to prolong the matter they want proof of my current insurance. I have sent it to them and posted registered,as they are in the habit of stating they did not receive this or that. I am waiting for their next action, because I intend to report them to WACTHDOG. They`re

Although I'm no longer a student, I still live in a shared house and Endsleigh insurance seems to be the only company (at least the only one I could find) which caters for this. The policy has a number of useful features--in particular it covers burglaries due to one of your housemates leaving the front door wide open. Endsleigh are very keen to get your business and will phone you repeatedly at renewel time. You can always get through to them on the phone almost straight away. UNLESS you want to make a claim, which I had to do for the first time this year. If you want to claim then you're looking at 15 minutes on hold. Following whic, guess what? They can't ...
