Tesco Personal Finance

when i got my first car i had the harrowing time of looking for car insurance. Being a student with no experience under my belt you can imaging the damage i ecpected to be done to my purse. well hold on there partner. Im a avid internet surfer and during the hours of insurance hunting i found tesco;s motor insurance. Imagine my surprise when me, a first timer managed to get insurance for 1170 pounds for TPFT. Not bad considering i was expecting it to be in the two grand mark. I like tesco coz you can set it up on line and be covered in minutes. You can pay by instalments (about 8% APR) and you get lots of customer service support if you have any trouble. As i never had ...  Read the complete review

Don't even think about it! - Advantages: Cheap, Clubcard points - Disadvantages: Terrible service

After doing a lot of searching around for insurance for my car on the internet I came across Tescos. After previously being with admiral I was pleased to find that Tesco's where about £20 cheaper.

Having just bought a new car I was really keen to shop around and get some cheap motor insurance. I thought this would not take me too long as I did the same thing last year, but no, everyone I seemed to phone have me absolutely ridiculous quotes.

When I got home and phoned the number I ...  Read the complete review
