Yeah very good. I would have renewed my insurance. But can't afford it just now. But would like to take insurance out in the future regards

Everything was easy from the start..forgot to print my documents and lost the link to do so,1 quick call,sorted!Just hope a renewal cost will be acceptable to stay with them,as they often aren't for some reason.

Automatically renewed insurance without checking my details had changed. Now being charged which will leave me in a poor financial position.

Renewed my policy without notifying me and charging me £62.91 to cancel. Money grabbers go elsewhere.

Price was ok but now when you try to contact theme to make an ammendment they don't answer the phones, email them it states 72 hours to get a reply then when I get a reply it says we are busy please call. I'm now calling and to NO Suprise at 7 minutes past 8am your really busy. What a rubbish service. Will never use again.

If you are a genuine customer who is looking for a genuine insurance company don't go with them.. these are crooks and will rob you without hesitation...I'm trying my best to get the money back.... this company has proven that the cheapest is not all ways the best....

AVOID this insurance company. They wrote my car off and are only offering me a quarter of the amount its worth! Some one pulled out of a junction into ME but I have to pay them £750 first to even get what little money they are offering for my car! I have heard from the repair shop what they will fix it for £3000 which is all first alternative are offering for my car so I told them to fix it rather than giving me the money but they said "it doesn't work like that" I know all they are going to do is claim the money back they have paid me off the other guys insurance company fix my car with it and sell it on for a profit! Please AVOID them at all costs! I have a baby on the way and this has put me in a terrible financial position and without a car to get to work!

I have two policies with First Alternative. On both occasions I used the "call by telephone" system to actually speak to a member of the company team, to check all matched my requirements. On both occasions the team members could not have been more helpful or friendly.

After 4 years I learned that this company is making to insurance of a car in my name. I have not seen or know it exists. Although it has been provided in my name with all the details I have never received any letter from the company. The insured person has not made the necessary payments and for this reason my name is inserted in the list of debtors (negative credit score) and no company does not perform to my car insurance. I will throw this company to court

I find it ludicrous that you can't change your details ie address , unless you ring them and getting an answer is usually difficult
