...away that Tesco offer a valuable 5% discount if you buy their motor insurance on line. However, I remained a little sceptical about this offers, as in my search I had come across several other insurers offering similar deals (often with much higher discounts) but these discounts were often completely negated by the ridiculously high price of the quote provided! Getting a quote on the Tesco internet site was incredibly easy, the quickest and easiest ... Read review

Advantages: Cheap & Efficient
Disadvantages: None that I have found yet!

I have been insured with Tesco car insurance now for about 4 years. The reason I insured with them was largeley that they gave the lowest quote. I know that you never really know how good your insurance provider is until you have to make a claim. Two weeks ago, after nearly 9 years accident free on the road, I had my first accident. Driving home from work, on a hot Friday afternoon, I misjudged the traffic infront of me, and when I went to break, ...
...had recieved a fax from Tesco authorising them to quote on the vehicle. I also recieved a telephone call from a car rental company letting me know they had recieved the booking, and that a car would be available on the Monday. In my opinion, Tesco dealt with this very efficiently. On the following Tuesday, I recieved a call asking for further details on the passengers in the other vehicle involved and I was told that they were just about to call ... Read review

Advantages: Can be purchased on-line, variety of payment methods
Disadvantages: Hopefully none - new customer - too early to say

Tesco is one place I would never have thought of looking for motor insurance until accidentally clicking a link from www.bluecarrots.com. Well I had nothing to lose did I? Some of you may have already seen my op about my previous insurer. Last year after around 10 years claim free motoring, I was very unlucky to have a prang in the local leisure centre car-park, followed about 2 months later by a much nastier bump on the motorway whilst visiting ...
...the option to enter your Tesco Club Card details, although not quite sure if you pick up points through insurances! - anyone enlighten me? SUMMARY The process was very simple and straightforward. I have had no dealings with their customer services department as everything was done on-line, quickly and painlessly. Sadly with most insurance companies, your first real experience can be when you need to make a claim, so hopefully I will not be updating ... Read review

Advantages: Cheapest quote, friendliest customer services staff
Disadvantages: Recent entrant into insurance market

...last November, why I chose Tesco and a summary of the Tesco car insurance policy. Bear in mind that this is only the third time that I have bought car insurance so I am pretty naïve about the subject. APATHY IS PROFITABLE My existing car insurer was Norwich Union Direct. A few months ago they published a survey where 8 out of 10 car owners did not shop around for quotes. They simply stayed with their existing insurer. So NU Direct gave new clients ...
...go into more detail about Tesco later on. Sainsburys Bank Quote: No quote given I first went to the Sainsburys home page, then to Sainsburys Bank and finally to the car insurance page. I entered my car details. No quote was given due to the type of vehicle selected. I was quite surprised at this. Sainsburys only entered the car insurance market last year. Being a new entrant I thought that their quote would be competitive enough to lure customers ... Read review
