Not good customer service
Prima and me for history of a non existent claim so I didn't know what they were talking about, I tried to contact them but couldn't get past the chat bot with pre set answers, as they had taken my money but I wasn't sure if i was insured i cancelled and they charged me for the cancellation.

In the meantime, if you'd like to discuss this further, we're here to help. You can find lots of ways to contact us, including over the phone and on WhatsApp, at: https://help.helloprima.co.uk/hc/en-gb/p/contact_us.

People are more helpful than bots
Once I got past the bot and started talking to an adviser, it was quick and easy to change my policy.

Hi John,
We're sorry that you're feeling frustrated and confused.
We never like having to cancel someone's insurance with us. But we've contacted you multiple times to ask for some additional documents to verify the information on your policy. Unfortunately, without these documents, we can't continue to cover you.
If you'd like to discuss this further, our team is here to help. Please reach out to us at: https://help.helloprima.co.uk/hc/en-gb/p/contact_us.
All the best,
Annie
Prima a five-star service.
I would like to give Prima a five-star rating for the help I received. As an older customer, I can only praise the help and understanding I received when setting up my car insurance. The person who helped me was incredibly understanding and went above and beyond. Again, thank you for the help.

They make it virtually impossible to cancel. You have to go through an inordinate amount of drivel to actually get through to someone. One of the most annoying experiences ever. Forever hit with useless bots. Will never ever use them again!

Update from yesterday
Update from yesterday, where Prima cancelled my cover, without reason and stated that they would withhold £50 of the refund, they just helped themselves to £75!
The people at Prima hide behind a wall of bots which go round in circles so they do not have to speak to you, in person.
I have been mugged, please don't let it happen to you.

Automatic renewal
Automatic renewal, easy peasey. Checked that it was renewed with Joel after getting no claims proof for another insurance agent.
Very reasonable price to renew and very competitive

It seemed a bit dodgy…
It seemed a bit dodgy when you get given a price for a years insurance, and then it jumps 5% just before you input the card details!
I guess they hope most people shrug and just pay the small difference, but it’s not a good look…

Easy and cheap to switch cover to my new car
I am picking up a new car in a few days' time, so needed to transfer my cover to the new car. This was an easy and relatively painless process via a combination of chatbot and chat with a human, and the new price was good too.
