RCIB had a questionable sales approach which when challenged and realised what they were doing tried to cancel within a few minutes. I am currently in the process of writing to the regulatory authority regarding more serious concerns as what transpired I consider wholly unacceptable. They also refuse to formally respond and to put anything in writing so far. (read more)

Simply was not possible to get what it says on the tin. Their system is wrong as it is not always possible to get all the basic details to them on line. Appears to be designed to draw potential mugs into the telephone quote for much more money. For future reference I would not choose to waste time and money by being involved with these people, their telephone manner also became most unsatisfactory once they were informed of their unacceptable practice. Comparison websites may be better... (read more)

red light warning in 30 years i have never ever had dealings with such a company from start to 10 months into policy . YES, it was the cheapest quote !!!!!!! but you certainly pay for it in the long RUN. my sons insurance was £3200.00 he was told he would be insured straight away when he paid deposit of over £800 . this was paid on an evening and as he was under the impression he was insured he went for a drive as quite excited ( it was his first CAR) only on going out again next...

Best quote by far in all car insurance comparison sites. Buy it at your peril!.I was buying for my son(35yr./perf.car/conviction) Not until AFTER you pay,do you get message that you are NOT covered,until they call. The call consists of an interrogation,trying to find ANY tiny excuse. £100. out in value. 4 door instead of 5. If you attempt to stop them,or even worse argue with them,they fly into a mini rage!.Then you get the first name treatment like they knew you all you life!,its his... (read more)

I was on price comparison websites and Right Choice Insurance Brokers came out as the cheapest one for my car insurance, after taking a deposit the lady on the phone then increased my insurance and told me the reason for it was because I have never taken out insurance myself. Whenever I have had to call RCIB for any queries I have been put on hold for a very length of time and the people on the other end of the phone do not seen to want to help me out in the slightest, in fact quite the...

I have never been treated so rudely or suspiciously. Essentially, it sounds from the other reviews like I am lucky because the company refused to insure me. This has meant that they're refunding my payment, which I am now concerned may not happen, havig read the other comments. I was treated suspcicously because I have had a dricing licence for 18 years but only have one year of no claims bonus (haven't had a car very long!) and was not believed when I tried to change my need for business...

I found rcib through confused.com and with being a student i thought it was cheap so went for it.

I had payed just over 800 or my third party fire n theft policy and they qouted me 1200 and i rung another company got it for 840. When asking to cancel they wanted me to pay a fee of 150 even though i had made all payment as it was an 8 month payment plan so... (read more)

I have also had a bad experience with this company. I thought it would be a great idea if my daughter bought her own car, that she learn and drive with a supervising driver. RCIB was the cheapest quote I found online at £1193. Which I thought was great for a 17 year old but when they did their call back. I was appalled that policy ran for 12 months. So if my daughter passed her test in this time. She would not get a refund on this policy but if she paid £5000 she would have full cover for... (read more)

Latest news one week later and still no refund. Contacted the company in question today and was informed there was notes on the system regarding a full refund but not one had refunded the money. The person on the phone said he would refund the money straight away and send an confirmation email. Well got the email just hope the monies refunded in a couple of days.

Today, I was shopping around on the usual price comparison sites for my car insurance and RCIB came in slighter cheaper than the nearest competitor. They quoted approximately £715 which was about £50 cheaper so naturally I signed up straight away via their web site. Once my payment had been received, I received a message saying my my insurance would not start until I receive a call from the company. So 10 minutes later I receive a phone call and instantly I notice the person on the phone... (read more)

Ok, so here's my story. Some two weeks ago I was comparing prices of car insurance policies for my girlfriend and myself on one of the "well known" websites. RCIB came on top with a quote of £575. I went ahead and bought the policy online staight away... (Silly mistake). It all started the day after. Somebody from RCIB called (first the girfriend and then me) and tried to convince us that the details we put in were incorrect; and because of that the price is going up by £120. Now here's...

This is a con artist insurance company. They overcharge you and take all your money and do not want to give it back. It happened to me and my friend. They charge you for a refund over £150 even if it is still within 7 days. I only insured with them as I had TT99 and they come up as cheapest. However They phoned me charged me extra £500 setting fake dates of the points that lead to TT99 which do not even show on my policy. I am still trying to claim my money through FSA DO NOT INSURE WITH... (read more)

I had the same experience when my Daughter was trying to buy car insurance from a too good to be true RCIB quote via a comparison site.,
Fortunately the card transaction to Right Choice (RCIB) was not accepted by the bank, That failure it turns out saved even more hassle in the so called confirmation phone call stage.
RCIB attempted to bump up the price, the guy working at RCIB who spoke to my Daughter switched into naughty bad boy mode and dropped her like a hot spud once he understood RCIB was not going to get at her hard earned wonga!
They received a further phone call as a means to help the RCIB business explaining that the RCIB operating system is very very wrong .and they are going to lose custom.
Beware of Right Choice Insurance Brokers people ,by all means consider the right choice for car insurance then consider this,........ When the Right Choice looks to good to be true like the diamonds on the sole of your shoe,
WAKE UP!, Think, take a deep breath through the nose, smell the cattle poo?
Go elsewhere and make a better choice.
