Bad Points

Poor customer service, 'approved repairers' are not up to much.


General Comments

I had to make my first ever (non-windscreen) motoring claim in December 2007 and I don't think I could have picked a worse insurance company to do it through. First Alternative have failed to impress me and the claim is still unsettled. I have been contacted twice in six months about my claim and the second of those was only because I had a rant at them on the phone. Furthermore, their 'approved repairer' did a poor job of fixing my car (it's still not right) and 'delivered' it back to me by driving it from Newbury to Reading without my consent.
