...purchasing my motor insurance from Churchill for a number of years now. My initial reason for contacting Churchill for an insurance quote was the catchy bulldog adverts, you know the ones, voiced by Vic Reeves - Oh no, no, no, no and Oh yes. However, once I'd contacted them I discovered there was more to this company than a catchy advert.
I've always been impressed by their levels of customer service regarding setting up policies, change of car ... ...A VERY BRIEF HISTORY
Churchill Insurance was founded in 1989 with only 88 employees and initially only sold motor insurance. A year later home insurance was added and ever since the range of Churchill products has grown. Today the company employees over 8,000 people and sells insurance for cars, vans, motorbikes, homes, life, travel and even pets (I wonder if Churchill himself is insured ?). They also offer a range of other financial products such ...

Advantages: Good CLAS service Disadvantages: awful level of communition within company, too many phone calls, too little information
Churchill passionate about insurance, so their slogan says. Really I say how about passionate about being totally unhelpful!
We had a car accident 11th August this year on the way back from holiday in Devon. We`d travelled about half an hour and ended up as car 2 in a line of 4 who had a bump..well number 4 car drove into the back of us all.
I was taken from the scene in an ambulance leaving husband and kids with the mess to sort out. They were ... ...on 21st August and the Churchill engineers did not phone me until 28th August. When they did they wanted to "discuss" what I thought my car was worth. Bear in mind I`m off with whiplash, feeling rubbish and did not want to enter into a discussion with some patronising bloke about car value!!!
Finally a written offer came through the post with…yes you guessed the wrong figure on it!! Another phone call to Churchill who said they would get the ...

Advantages: Cheapest insurance for new drivers Disadvantages: Hard to contact
...for me came up as Churchill out of a lot of strong contenders like Diamond, a company targeted specifically for girls. The first thing I found was that they would cover me for under a grand. I think my insurance was a little over £900 given the details I entered. (I drive an 02 renault clio 1.2i dynamique). This was fantastic given that many companies either returned a response of only covering those over 21 or covering me for the price of an arm ... ...like Lloyds and the AA, Churchill was the one which we finally decided on. Later that day, I gave them a call to confirm the offer I had been quoted with at www.confused.com and they told me that not only was that correct, I could also gain a further 10% if I booked online. The only drawback with this is that it has to be paid in full using a credit card, but nevertheless, I chose to go down that path.
I had also been told that taking 'Pass Plus' ...

Advantages: Cheapest by far for an under 25 year old. Disadvantages: Minor policy restrictions.
...I took the quote from Churchill (which I had received via "insure direct"/Lloyds TSB). Their system had the ability to ignore the post-code since I could provide a postal address instead (hooray - common sense prevails..!).
Thinking nothing more of it I had the insurance policy for one year and it was due for renewal a few weeks ago. I started phoning all the 0800 numbers again to find a new provider thinking that due to my limitations last year, ... ...I..!
Churchill insurance have insured me - an under 25 year old (just!!) with six years NCD on a Ford Focus 1.8 LX - for 250 quid. I have a limitation on my policy which states that I cannot drive any other vehicle, and an additional excess of 150 quid, but the actual premium was a good 150 quid below all the nearest competitors..!
Their service and efficiency a year ago was outstanding - they had the common sense to allow my quote to be processed ...

Car Insurance Review ofChurchill Insurance Company Limitedby

Advantages: Cheap, quick Disadvantages: no nodding dog
...if you are already a Churchill customer. I then clicked on, get quote and filled in my details. I also had my wife to add as an additional driver. The whole process took around five minutes. The only part i didn't like is your claim and convictions screen. You have 2 boxes for each and you enter any history you may have. Now with myself, I selected no convictions and no claims in the two boxes. But in order for me to continue to the next screen, ... ...convictions in the second box. Work that one out for yourselves.
When i had finished entering my details, you are presented with a summary screen for you to make sure everything is correct. If you are happy then you are shown your quote and was I happy! My quote was nearly £75 less than what i was already paying. You can obviously change your excess amounts and legal cover etc but i entered everything exactly to what i was already getting.
When ...
