Superb service.

The communication from Autoguard was excellent throughout the process. Emails were quickly responded to and once the payment was authorised it was paid really quickly. I highly recommend Autoguard.

Complete rubbish! Stay away

Over the period of owning my car which has been 2 months I have had quite a few things go wrong with it. Autoguard has declined everything. Taken a very long time to respond, not covered the correct amount of hourly rate and then decline everything. Highly recommend to stay far away from them.

As you can see in the response below they first of all missed the 3 other claims I tried to make and as it is ‘case by case’, it allows them to review each case as a decline. There customer communication maybe pretty good but when it comes down to actually covering the cost they are terrible!

Hi Joey,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

Your recent repair request was declined as the fault was traced to a split air intake pipe. Hoses and pipes are specifically excluded components under the Premium plan, which is why this repair was not covered.

We understand this can be frustrating, but we aim to be clear and transparent about what is included within the plan.

Each repair request is reviewed on a case-by-case basis, so should you have any questions or concerns in the future, please do get back in touch.

Kind regards,
Autoguard Warranties

Highly recommended, in fact really not to be missed.

Well, many used cars are offered with a three month warranty, sometimes with an offer of extension, at your expense. This car came with a very comprehensive twelve month warranty which made a considerable difference in my thinking at purchase. Whilst the car is exceptional, it has not been without its teething problems. This warranty proved absolutely invaluable. Their positive and rapid response has been top drawer. Would I recommend? Without hesitation. Many thanks Autoguard Warranties Ltd.

Hi William,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and appreciate your feedback.

In this case, the repair request was reviewed, however the correct repair request process was not followed, as works were carried out before authorisation was obtained. As outlined in the plan terms, approval must be in place prior to any repairs being completed.

We understand this is frustrating, but this process is in place to ensure costs and coverage can be agreed upfront.

Kind regards,
Autoguard Warranties

Do not touch with a barge pole

Do not touch with a barge pole. The company are a bunch of 'loss adjusters' whose favourite quote was "or SMART Technicians" don believe they can fix it by the roadside so get quotes. They offered me 26% of the total cost so I have chosen to expose them rather than take the money, because I could not afford to pay the rest myself. The would not even transfer me the money, quoting the policy so I could shop around for a lesser quality job. The policy is designed to trip up.sensible customers who do not report small scratches as they happen, for efficiency and to reduce the call out cost I stupidly allowed a few to accumulate so it would be one call out. I was wrong to be sensible. Do not touch them with a barge pole.

Good morning,

Thank you for leaving your feedback. We’re sorry you’re disappointed with the outcome of your repair request.

Your plan covers SMART repairs for minor, localised damage. In this case, the bonnet required a full bodyshop respray, which falls outside the scope of cover. Despite this, we approved a £300 contribution as a gesture of goodwill, which was above the standard SMART repair cost.

As with all repairs, payment is made once repairs are completed, in line with the policy terms.

If you would like us to review anything further, please contact us directly.

Matter dealt with efficiently once the problem was resolved

After it was established my e-mail hadn't been received, the claim was dealt with efficiently by a lady who was very apologetic. The main thing was that it was sorted immediately. Thank you.

Autoguard Warranties are honest folk

I was sceptical about the value of after market warranties until I needed to make a claim with Autoguard Warranties Ltd. The system for reporting the claim was simple and the response was immediate acceptance of the claim based on documentation provided in evidence.
