Newest Review: ... who said I had to ring them. This I did. The breakdown man said he knew the garage and towed my automatic car away. Upon reaching the garage, he left me. The garage could not fix the car as it was a Suzuki and they did not have the correct computer diagnostic system. The mechanic phoned Quinn and after giving them my policy no, was told that a recovery vehicle would be sent within an hour, ... more

Do not use this company on any account. I had the misfortune to call on their breakdown cover. The breakdown service was abysmal.... A surly rude man who said he didn't know what was wrong. He said it wasn't the battery as he first thought. My car is a Suzuki automatic. He asked me to find a garage. I was 150 miles away from home and did not know the area. I had to ask a local who gave me the name of a garage. I passed this onto the breakdown man who said I had to ring them. This I did. The breakdown man said he knew the garage and towed my automatic car away. Upon reaching the garage, he left me. The garage could not fix the car as it was a Suzuki and they did not have ...  Read the complete review

Express Review on Quinn Direct

By far the worst company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with.
Customer service is a joke, they are cheap for a reason, they will make it their mission in life to do nothing for you. Don't even think about using their breakdown cover... its a joke. When I complained about the disgraceful service, and remarked that I would be writing to the FSA, they simply said "Oh no you wont do that as we are in Ireland and we are not covered by them", even though it says differently in the policy book. On no account use these people.
I have only given them one star because i cant give them zero stars.

Quinn Direct: QUINN worst insurance company anywhere (227 words)

Appalling, they leave you stranded, the breakdown is a joke. I spent all day stranded with them denying I was covered at all, got shouted at down the phone, they hung up on me several times, refused to get a manager. I got told breakdown cover doesn't apply during the day,what a joke.In the end they admitted I was covered but refused to organize a hire car although their policy says they will. The Ryan Air of car insurance, an absolute joke, don't touch it with a barge pole. I have never been spoken to in such a disgusting way,they are badly trained and willing to lie about calls they have received and when you have to ring repeatedly the same person answers and says ...  Read the complete review

*WARNING - THIS IS A LONG REVIEW ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE, I AM NOT PROMOTING QUINN OR RECOMMENDING THEM IN ANY WAY, IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GOOD CAR INSURANCE COMPANY, YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME READING MY REVIEW - IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR INFORMATION ON QUINN SEE THEIR WEBSITE, MANY THANKS* After seeing that there had been only one review written and it was mostly positive, I felt I needed to contribute for the sake of balance. My experience hasn't been brilliant. Now, I've probably been a bit naive when it comes to car insurance, it's all new to me. But we've all seen those television adverts boasting the brilliance of price comparison websites and ...  Read the complete review

It seems there are very few people have even heard of quinn direct, I have used them for three years and get the cheapest insurance I can find with them. There is a discount for young drivers which is always handy and it is easily managed online with your own account. The only problem I have found with quinn is that you cannot insure someone on your motor for less than 4 weeks, this can be irritating if your on a long distance drive or lending your car to someone for picking you up from the pub :)! They give you plent of renewal time and put a good discount on each year, I am 22 years old driving a Renault Clio 1.4i x reg, cheapest other ...  Read the complete review
