More Than promised to beat my quote, they quoted me more than £300.00.I sent them an email they phoned me the next day. The Tele sales woman said how much did we quote you and I told her £300.00 more.More Than could not help me. I decided to report them to the Advertising Standards. I have now been in touch with them and they are looking into this.More Than are certainly living up to their name.I have decided to stay with Aviva as they only put my insurance up by £15.00....

They promise to beat your car renewal premium. When I phoned them I was told that this was correct, but the reduction would be only £1. Fair enough as they are a reputable Insurer and I have had problems with my own Company. When I completed the application online the quote was nearly double, so obviously something was wrong. When I phoned them I was politely informed that I did not meet their criteria as I only had 2 years no claims bonus and the minimum to qualify was 3 years!! This to me is...

I have read quite a few reviews now, which are mainly negative, but everybody has got his/her own experiences. My experiences so far with MoreThan are excellent. My car cover was with Swinton before. This was an absolut horrible experience. KEEP AWAY FROM THEM!! MoreThan completly different kind of story. From the very start their customer service was, and indeed still ist, outstanding. And we are talking about an insurance company here, which normally are just worried about their profits. Every...

Hello, Last night watched the More Than TV advert for Car Insurance. The advert clearly states they will better any renewal quote. Today I went on the More Than website and completed all the questions etc, and asked for quote. The website said sorry, can't quote, try these other associated companies. Strange I thought since their advert says they will beat my renewal? Sent a live message to ask for a call back which was prompt. The lady said it might be a number of reasons, under 25yrs (not) bad...

Shockingly bad customer service. I had a minor bump in the ice last year, no damage to either my car or the other car, but I notified More Than just incase the other driver did try to make a claim, just to let them know what had happened and that it was probably neither cars fault but that no damage had occurred. I was always told I should do this particularly as I had legal cover - just incase someone tried to make a claim against me at a later date. Heard nothing from More Than, until my renewal...

We initially went with More Than because they seemed to do the best deals on multiple car insurance. However, when a year later we only needed to renew one car, they refused to transfer our no claims across to the remaining car. We therefore decided to go with a different company, but More Than have refused to release our no claims, saying it is only applicable to the one car on the multiple policy, and only valid if we stay with them. We have now taken the complaint to the financial ombudsman....

After 25 years of having insurance policies with various companies this is the WORST ONE EVER! BEWARE they will renew your policy without your instruction to do so and then send you threatening letters and be deliberatly awkward about sorting it out. They claim their process is to speak to your new insurer before they will cancel. So they had me and my new insurance company on the phone at the same time! OUTRAGEOUS! They will not take instructions via Email and the call centre is ridiculous. HELLO...

My wife as a named driver was involved in an accident. Our car was taken to the garage More Than insisted on Nationwide repair centre. They repaired the damaged bodywork under the fully comprehensive cover we had with then but then said there was a problem with the engine which meant it couldn't be driven and they were not prepered to put this right because as far as they were concerned it was done prior to the accident. This I was surprised at as it had only recently had a full service and passed...

The company renewed the contract automatically because i was not sent any paper work. I changed my address over a month before the policy expired but they failed to update the information and still believe it is acceptable to charge a admin fee. The person at the other end of the phone was not willing to look into the previous call history and spent most of the call repeating him self with irellevant information. I advised him i did not want to proceed with the address change as i was not willing...

Customers service is terrible and SLOW! I spend more time on hold and listing to music rather than dealing with their staff. Took a lifetime just to cancel my policy. Glad to be away from this company!...

I am currently insured with More Than and have been very happy up to now. I am changing my car this week so contacted them to change the policy details. I had to constantly ask the lady to repeat as was finding it difficult to understand her. Even though my new car (Citroen Berlingo) has been available for quite a while now she couldn't find it on their database. After a frustrating half an hour or so I asked to speak to a superviser, his accent was worse but I finally gleaned that the model I wanted...

Spent MoreThan three hours speaking to polite staff in India who really couldn't help me because their script didn't include answers to my questions. Holding on for over ten minutes at a time, being transferred to other departments that didn't answer their phones, being promised call-backs that didn't call back. Eventually, having told the polite Indian lady to stop being so polite and just give me the next number she wanted me to try, I was put through to Liverpool. My query was immediately understood...

this company has got to be the worst! i had my car smashed up in novemeber by a local low life who took a dislike to my car, no fault of my own. the claim took hours and hours of calls to get sorted, and then had major issues with hire cars etc! renewal has arrived and gone up 121% apperently due to my non fault claim. i now cannot afford to own the car i have loved for 4 years never claiming a penny! i cancelled the policy, and today i find they have taken 2 payments from my account totalling £300!....

More than are bunch of criminals. The worst custmer service ever! Watch out for this con insurance company. A 4x4 driver reversed out of the parking position in a supermarket car part and damaged the side of my car including the wheel arch. When I called more than, they asked number of questions about the accident which lasted about 30 minutes then the man on the phone said the system does not authorise the claim!!! When I ask the reason he did not know. After of number of telephone calls to more...

I can sympathise...I never had a claim for 50 years yet this rip off company just take the easy way out of everything, they also ignored my recorded delivery letters and NEVER bothered to get back in touch....really is the worst in the UK...or should I say India because all you speak to are people in India that don't have a clue

I was involved in an accident that wasn't my fault - unfortunately this is the third time for me, and compared to direct line and privelege, which in themselves were OK, More Than were faster, easier to get hold of on the phone and generally had better customer service. From start to finish they dealt with the claim, the claims advisor appeared to be in England which is always a bonus and I had a courtesy car to match the spec of my sports car rather than the usual grannymobile you're given.

I recently took out a Morethan motor policy paying over £572 due to an error regarding no claims discount Morethan cancelled the policy on the grounds that they sent me a letter which I did not receive requesting a further £20. As I did not pay the £20, Morethan cancelled the policy and informed me 14 days after cancellation that the policy was infact cancelled. This company for the sake of £20 has rendered me liable for the offence of using a motor car without insurance...

Paid through the nose for this policy because my son was only 20 and had only been driving 3 years.Eight months into the policy my son was hit by a drunk driver not at fault in any way. He did all the right things called the police etc, drunk driver was arrested at the scene.We had crime number etc thought wouldn't be a problem...How wrong could I...

So I have just received my renewal price. It has gone from £452 to £790 in a year. When I asked why they stated that it was due to a claim I made back in November. After talking to India again I told them to look at my policy and my claim. NO claim was made and it wasn't my fault (someone went into the back of me but the 3rd party repaired it for me as he didn't want to tell his insurance company). As I thought it was the law to instruct ALL accidents my 'Drivers record' now has a NON...

I gave up trying to renew my policy due to the incompetence of the call centre. I waited 15 minutes to get through to a sales person. She went through all of my details (very slowly) and then told me that she had a problem with my file and would have to transfer me to a colleague. Guess what? I went straight back into the queue! I wonder if these were delaying tactics to further extend my premium rate call?? I didn't wait to find out!! Will not go near these people again....

Awful company!!! I had a non-fault claim over 3 years ago and i'm still awaiting the refund of my excess. Over three years i've wasted time and money on phoning India call centre and achieved nothing. My complaints procedure tripled my renewal and no one can tell me why or how it tripled, let alone correcting the matter. NEVER EVER insure with More Than! ...

Appauling insurer!! AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Currently claiming as my car was stolen- have cctv evidence to prove it. After 5 weeks of endless phonecalls and interviews by Morethan I have now been told that I will not receive a penny. They think I shud have secured the car keys even though they were stolen from my handbag!!! Complete waste of time insuring the car in the first place. Daylight robbery!...

I just called More Than to try to renew my car insurance by direct debit. The call handler mumbled & was not easy to understand & also took an inordinate amount of time to find my details. He seemed to be doing this deliberately which led me to believe that I was calling a premium rate number. However, when I challenged him on this he declined to answer.When he eventually got round to answering my direct debit question, after trying to divert the conversation to other aspects of my insurance, he...

AAAAAAAAhhhh What a mickey mouse bunch. I have finally spoken to someone in UK after being fobbed off by Indian call centre with employees that don't even know what their company sells. Spoke to UK after 3 phone calls to India I had to insist on speaking to someone in UK to get problem sorted, ie that they were charging me for insurance I hadn't had and had already supposedly cancelled. UK sorted straight away.Very annoying as no UK numbers listed for MORE THAN and whatever number you use you go...

I've had no problems with More Than, EVER, until now. I called up on the weekend after just buying a new car (being the weekend its when MOST people buy their new car).. The Call Center could NOT FAX a cover note to tax the Vehicle Saturday OR Sunday - because guess what, the "FAX Department" is NOT open on a Saturday or Sunday? Fax department, really? What happened to Winfax? Anyway Monday comes, I drive to work in my untaxed car risking it with the expectations to tax the car at dinner time....

MORE TH>N were fantastic! The whole experience was taken out of my hands, they were even able to offer me a BMW approved bodyshop, who provided me with a BMW courtesy car. The accident wasn't my fault so they waived my excess and claimed everything back from the other insurer, protecting my no claims. Even their Indian call centre staff were very helpful and understanding. My only criticism would be that you don't get one person to deal with you for the duration of the claim, I spoke to about 10...

AVOID - Just spoke with someone based in India who repeats the same questions and doesn't listen to the answers you give. Speaks robotically from a script. I decided not to open a policy with them as a result. If getting a motor quote is this painfull and drawn out - what will it be like if you have to ever make a claim? Don't support British business's with outsourced customer contact. Keep jobs in Britain....

Great price to start with but try and amend the policy or change your car and the price is nearly double that of the best quote on Go Compare.

I cancelled my policy with Morethan 2 months ago and am still waiting for a refund over over 400 pounds. I ring their call centre, but nothing happens.I just get the scripted response. They admit that they owe me the money and apologise. I hate to think what would have happened if I had tried to make a claim. Next stop is the County Court. I have another policy with Morethan and I certainly will not be reviewing that. The Offshore Call Centre is a nightmare and should be avoided. ...

UK call centre was fantastic. Indian call centre experience was dire. In fact if it hadn't been for the great service I received from the UK call centre, I would have moved away. All I wanted to do was to ensure my car was insured to tow a caravan abroad - in France. The Indian call centre wanted to know if I was travelling through any other countries to get to France - via the Channel Tunnel!! They then insisted that I was covered for a trailer up to 7m, OK so does that include a caravan? "No,...

Absolutely awful customer service. Despite paying in full for a years comprehensive car insurance up front, they 'accidentally' cancelled my policy without telling me. Then when I rang to enquire about adding an additional driver on to my policy, I spent over an hour on the phone, most of the time on hold, whilst they insisted i had cancelled my policy. Eventually they accepted it was their mistake and said that they would send me a new certificate of insurance. Two weeks later I have receieved...
