Don't touch Liverpool Victoria with a barge pole connected to an even bigger barge pole!

In the event of the worst happening (here's hoping it does not) - they are completely s**te. I had issues with them just rolling over and not fighting my corner when I was in an accident that wasn't my fault. The other party (Direct Line representing) weren't even going to make a claim against my cover - but LV accepted liability without asking for my agreement and Direct Line cottoned on before doing so themselves and went with it. LV's indolence meant my NCD was set back two years. Not to mention increasing my premiums.

Best bit was - one claim almost increaded my premium 3 fold to £2,800 at renewal. I ditched them very fast!

Oh, and as the claim happened just before my renewal - I had to keep convincing them I was covered at the time of the claim each time I called for an update as I was with another insurer by the time they got off their arse and dealt with it.

Hope that helps! :D
