Great Company Great Price
Have used Direct Line for a couple of years now, good cover and good price, even bettered their quote this year when we rang up and asked!!
That's great to hear, Julie.
You Only Know How Google An Insurance Company Is When You Make A Claim. .
Had a drainage problem.Their first surveyor said I had a claim. Never saw this at the time. They sent a second surveyor who said no claim !! I naturally asked to see first survey. Over a period of 5 weeks the claims adjuster .... Procrastinated. Denied any knowledge. Mentioned data protection. Too big a file to send. Post it please !! Send her pasted copy without the favourable conclusion. Eventually sent the original showing her deceit and manipulation. Complained to DL and also CEO. They said nothing wrong with this .... A corporate culture of dishonesty and customer respect. Said it had to be redacted.
