“"Only went with esure because of the price but their telephone service is abysmal, hold you on the phone for hours with the usual excuse that their lines are unusually busy at the moment. Their website does not allow you to give basic questions and their chat line could not answer most of my questions and kept telling me to contact them by phone. I am retired and I was able to phone at all times of the day and night without much success so how a working person would be able to contact them I do not know."”

“Appalling customer service, unable to get through on telephone, Emails take forever and when they do reply they are not true to their word. My 82 year old mum is still waiting for a “goodwill” £50 cheque. Initially £25.00 but never received? Now been 29 working days and still not received. Avoid using this company!!!”

“Been a customer for a few years but had to cancel my latest policy as I sold the car. They confirmed cancellation and advised they would refund me the remaining amount (paid for the full year in advance) minus the admin fee which was absolutely fine. One month later I am yet to receive my refund. The customer services are incompetent and rude. So far I have spent hours on the phone and live chats trying to get some sort of resolution. I have been on hold for 40+ mins multiple times only to be hung up on in the end. This is a shocking service, it is not a complicated matter to resolve. I cannot even imagine if I had to contact this lot about a claim. Absolute mess, I will be taking this further. Please avoid this dodgy company at all costs!!!”

“Dreadful company. Do not trust this company! Renewed automatically whilst I was ill, put my insurance up by 2/3 and tied me into a 12 month insurance contract, by the time i was well enough to call them it was too late. Without any circumstances changes or claims they Put my insurance up from £56per month to £156 per month without any justification. Also The customer service team when you call in are the most rude unprofessional people imaginable. Honestly do yourself a favour and get insurance elsewhere.”

“They were competitive but OMG they are totally unable to contact regarding a change to my travel insurance so just gave up and went to a more reputable company. Rang twice (as on line chat does not allow changes on line) and waited an hour each time before I gave up. Go somewhere else”

“Absolute joke from start to finish. Car was stolen from outside my house- arguably, that wasn’t the most stressful thing to have happened- dealing with ESure was. Waited over an hour on hold, finally got through to someone who took all the details and booked in a call with the theft department for 9:30-10:30 the following morning and I was told a call from Enterprise for the courtesy car would follow ‘any time now’. This was at 9am. By 3pm, I hadn’t heard from Enterprise so gave them a call directly as I was without a car. They hadn’t received the referral. Spent another hour and a half on hold to ESure who said they had not sent the referral properly but would do it now. Raced to get a car from Enterprise after waiting around all day, just before closing. The following morning arrives and 10:30am comes and goes and there is no call from the Theft Department. Spent another 90 mins on hold only to be told that they were unsure as to why I didn’t get a call but the only option would be to book it in for the following day at 11am. After much arguing, I reluctantly agreed and went about my day, only after having to repeat all the information I had previously given as it hadn’t been recorded . 4pm the same day arrives and I receive a call from an agitated member of the theft department demanding to know why I hadn’t answered my phone for the call at 4pm. When I explained it was actually booked for 9:30 that morning she said they don’t take calls then and I was mistaken. I forwarded her the confirmation email and she didn’t apologise, just said she’d ’pass it on’. We conducted the interview (where I was made to feel like a criminal) and then I forwarded the documents on that evening. Over 2 days I’d spent well over 6 hours on the phone to ESure. We were told that once the documents had been sent over, it would be approx 4 weeks for a settlement to be agreed. Car hire is only for a max 21 days (told absolutely no chance of extending) so is virtually useless in that regard! Chased them after sending documents over (knowing how useless they are) and was told that they hadn’t received any. 5 attempts later, still received nothing. Not sure a generic email inbox is the best way to deal with thousands of claims and personal documents. Contacted them daily through the live chat function (actually pretty good and much better than waiting on hold for hours on end). We were given countless contradictions and vague responses, asked to provide pictures of the damage to the car when it had been stolen, not damaged. We were told the contents email we had provided three times could not be found and that they would not be contacting us about a settlement claim as they were waiting to see if the car had been recovered- the police had closed the case! Nobody was looking for the car so it wasn’t likely to be recovered. It appears they were sticking an arbitrary time frame on it just to stall the pay out process! After I’d had enough, I emailed every member of the senior leadership team and got a relatively prompt response from the CEO of Claims who put me in touch with Donna. She agreed to extend my car hire and chased the claims department and was the one good cog in a failing machine. It’s now the 30th January and they have just offered their final settlement- nearly £3000 less than market value. We are now going via the Ombudsman and will be contacting BBC Watchdog as their processes are so poor and we know we’re not the only customers to have had issues. If you can afford to go with a more reputable brand, I really do urge you to do so.”

“Awful chat service. Had 3 different people just sign off chat mid query handling. Nightmare calling. When did speak to a person after waiting for hour, she said would transfer but cut line. On line site not working so can’t change policy or cancel auto renewal nor update payment option. It just says can’t do it and to contact them! My worst insurance experience in 30 years”

“AVOID - AVOID - AVOID - The waiting time on the phone if you have a claim is VERY, VERY, long! Like, 2+ hrs & you often just simply get cut off and have to start all over again. If you do get through, they can rarely answer your questions and you simply get passed around different people, without ever getting anything actually resolved. We were involved in an incident that wasn't our fault, but trying to get our vehicle repaired and process the claim has been painful throughout. And is still ongoing, with no sign of resolve. This service is TERRIBLE. Do yourself a favour and AVOID at all costs.”
