Very competitive and quick

I got a really competitive quote from LV via compare the market. About £110 (25%) less than my renewal quote with Aviva. For exactly the same cover. Setting up was seamless and quick.

I would give zero star if I can

I would give zero star if I can, it’s not about the customer service of the insurance , but the garage.
My car has been sitting in the garage for over three months since early February. They said there is a part shortages in the beginning, and then after the parts has been delivered, they said some parts need to be order again and again while the car was being repaired , excuses after excuses, updates after updates. Please avoid at all costs! BTW the car is still in the garage, the name is Gemini Accident Repair Centre Redditch !!
Avoid at all costs

Good morning ive just got off the phone to lv ins to upgrade my cover i am dumbfounded to hear that lv does not consider a ghost2 immobiliser and a scorpion track s5 fitted to be of any benefit to the company in the event of theft and recovery..considering a highish performance bmw 335 would possibly be a high target??? Yet a dash cam is ??? Please enlighten me ...

Quality / Speed of Repair Good - Poor Communications.

In general, the repair / claim process was fairly straightforward. As the vehicle concerned was on a multi user policy, having the option to nominate which of the named drivers was lead contact for the incident should be provided as every test / email was directed at the policy holder. The repair garage wasn't advised of this, making coordination of collection / delivery times more complex.

Very competitive quote

Very competitive quote, not the cheapest, but had what budget companies say are extras as standard.
Well known company, checked reviews, very positive. No problem so far. Hope i never have to make a claim, not because they are bad , but because I don't want to be burgled. Very drunk writing this review, hope it comes across as this is a good company
