Good company had to ring up to set up however came through to a guy called Osman explained just need to check the details because of some claims and convictions I had etc After running through the details seems I didn't have the right cover for my van so Osman changed it the price slightly went up which I can understand this also bought some key insurance and excess insurance seems like a no brainer then also took my details of my old insurer and explained I didn't have to send any documents which was a plus good company just annoying you gotta phone but guy was quick and effeincent

I made a modification to my van as I wanted to convert it into a camper. As I phoned First Insurance they told me they couldn't cover my modifications but in less than 24h they found another insurance provider for me and did all the paperwork so I could have my van insured under the same circumstances as before. they have always been very helpful before, this is not my first good review.

Very nice greeting. Spoke carefully and at an understandable pace. Helped me when I didn't understand. I would really recommend Stephen Davis specifically as he really made my custom feel that it was important to him and the company! Great service Stephen !!

They charge up to a maximum admin fee of £85.00 plus a 20% load on any premium the underwriter may charge. When asking why they have a 'maximum' fee they explain well its between £30.00 and £85.00 - who decides who gets charged what? When complaining about the fee and asking exactly what they charges they incur to justify this fee you are just lied to - told they need to update the MID (they are a broker so it would actually be the underwriter who does this) when questioning their agents they just stutter with their responses and today I was just cut off chat when she couldn't answer them. Will be reporting this to LV directly as I am sure they don't want this farce of a broker insuring on their panel

If you want an idiot in a call centre to try and tell you you're stupid then this is the company for you. Went through money supermarket and chose firsts quote, woman was very polite to my husband but when she tried to tell him the figures I worked out she had clearly upped the cost by over £150. I asked why and was told by the now very rude girl that it's because a valid quote is just an estimate and the company they were going to use to insure me was that price, I asked why put such a cheap quote on the site if the price when answering the exact same questions went up so much, I was told she would explain it in easier terms for me to understand, again she explained nothing so I asked again. You get the picture. This company just run rings around you without actually making any sense. Definitely not ever going to get my custom when then employ such vulgar little girls to work there who just want to flirt there way into getting your money and clearly don't like being questioned. They're beyond unprofessional and the fact they use unheard of companies and don't know big named insurance companies shows their unprofessionalism

Nothing change what i fill on internet but he gave me £700 more quote than go compare.I also report them to go compare because of they waste my 45 minutes on the phone and try to cheat me!!! My advice for all do not choice this crook company.

Do not trust!! Shoddy company who are interested only in selling you extras. Obtained a price via the internet but was then forced to call them before they would activate cover, only to be placed on hold for 10 mins while the operator "spoke to the underwriters". I was then told the excess had increased by 4x but the premium was still the same price "because the underwriters done you a nice little deal and thrown in some optional key care cover at £16". Absolute shysters - stay well clear!

Time wasters. They shown on confused.com the smallest price on market and when you call them they increase your insurance with 1k. Please avoid this company or you will end up spending 1 hour for nothing.
