Quick review of Helphire
Review of Helphire by
nos100
AVOID AT ALL COSTS
They were going to charge an extortionate amount to the other insurance company for a hire car and when I phoned the other insurance company direct they said they had alot of problems with helphire and they probably wouldn't have paid them for that (leaving me to pay) I dealt with the other persons insurance company direct, they had a hire car with me promptly. I even dealt with the recovery of my vehicle myself and had it taken to a repairer that I knew was good, helphire wanted to take my car 100 miles away to an unknown repairer. I pay my insurance company so see no reason... more

Parcel not 2 Go!
Review of www.parcel2go.com by
Kaleb
Advantages: Low cost
Disadvantages: Totaly unreliable and shambolic.
What a shambles! You get what you pay for! This seemed a good idea, low cost hassel-free collection from my home and cheaper than Parcelforce. BUT beware! No collection on agreed date. Then I was told that I had to order an alternative collection (despite ...

Quick review of warrantydirect.co.uk
Review of warrantydirect.co.uk by
topsys
I recently had a claim with Warranty Direct. The garage made one call to Warranty Direct whilst I was there and the claim was processed straight away enabling the part to be fitted. This has been the same as on all previous occassions where I have claimed this year. This is only my first year with them and I will certainly be renewing my policy with them. It is well worth paying the premium as it and gives you peace of mind knowing that major faults with your car are covered and you are not going to get large unexpected bills from your garage.

All the Good puns have been taken already. Curses.
Review of Elephant.co.uk by
ryanando
Advantages: Cheap, fast, easy
Disadvantages: Realistically, none.
Finally, after what feels like weeks of replacing reviewing with having a real life, I have come to a crashing halt. I'm fed up of the five men who seem to think I'm theirs, chocolate and ice cream have rebelled against me by giving me spots all over and ...

NatWest - Number One Choice
Review of NatWest by
Olivah
Advantages: Customer Service, Account variety, Good interest rates and good website/online banking.
Disadvantages: Many travel charges for withdrawel.
I've been with Natwest for many a year now and I've had absolutely no problems, I wouldn't switch banks unless I have to.
The great thing about Natwest is the variety of choices of Bank accounts, the majority depending on your income, e.g. Gold Premier ...

Quick review of warrantydirect.co.uk
Review of warrantydirect.co.uk by
mgifford
I found Warranty Direct simple to contact and they offered clear instructions on the validity of the claim and the process I needed to undertake to have the warranty repair completed. Never did they give the imrpesssion of not wanting to pay out. The repayment cheque followed very quickly.
Very satisfied customer.

Quick review of Adrian Flux Insurance
Review of Adrian Flux Insurance by
Malky132
The price was good, the sales staff were very friendly - but then the sale fell through and I needed to cancel. Imagine my disgust at getting charged 20% of the policy price for cover I never used even once - pathetic!

Quick review of Swiftcover Motor Insurance
Review of Swiftcover Motor Insurance by
GHeaders
Avoid.
Awful.
There are reasons why they offer good premiums. Such as...
A new driver pranged into my parked car, witnessed by my relative, and we exchanged details. Reported to Swiftcover and car was taken off to garage for repairs - £850. I paid £300xs. Four months later, time to renew policy, which has gone up £200 due to my no claims taking a hit. I enquired where they were with the claim - they had the wrong details and hadn't pursued or checked the details.
Consequently I am expected to pay £200 more, and don't think I'll get my £300 xs back either. They will chase again in "two weeks".
Makes... more

Quick review of Equity Red Star
Review of Equity Red Star by
deceased
For five years now I have had an ongoing claim with this company for subsidence to my property.Two years was waisted because they put forward a company (Crawford's)to monitor the property this was a complete fiasco, eventually I contacted the Ombudsman with regard to there poor service. Things did improve for a while but now are deteriorating once again, God knows when this will be sorted out!
Each year the insurance premiums has increased that after checking with other insurance company's I find that Equity Red Star are charging me twice what the other company's would charge.
I would not recommend... more

No trust at all
Review of First Trust Bank by
Curlio
Advantages: Probably no worse than the others
Disadvantages: I don't trust them, they don't trust me!
I would not recommend this bank to anyone! I have found them to be difficult to deal with, unsympathetic, impossible to get explanations from and I suspect, like most banks, ordinary customers are not what they want to attract. Their charges for unauthori ...

Quick review of Abbey National
Review of Abbey National by
CPWirral
Abbey National were just terrible in so far as arranging my recent mortgage, to the point whereby the entire sale and purchase nearly collapsed as a result.
SImply put, the Abbey National takes the definition of the word incompetence to new levels with astounding levels of bureaucracy and an inability to talk to someone capable of making a decision that isn't on a flowchart.
I understand that customer service has declined rapidly for the Abbey following it's takeover from the Santander Group and can readily agree with that view having had first hand experience.
As soon as my mortgage fixed... more
