Brentacre have been refreshingly excellent. Knowledgable and helpful since buy a new modified van. My current insurance company refused to insure the new vehicle and charged me nearly £200 to cancel even though they could not insure the van. however Brentacre were excellent and so helpful. Prices were cheaper and more comprehensive than my current provider as well. Highly recommend!

Online quote? Not really…

Online quote? Not really…
After completing a lengthy online quotation form, I was disappointed not to receive an online quote at all.

I was then told there was “no insurable interest” — with no meaningful explanation of what this actually meant in relation to my car or circumstances.

Given that Brentacre markets itself as a specialist insurer/broker, I would have expected a little more enthusiasm to understand the risk and try to offer a quotation, particularly for a low-mileage Porsche used for around 1,500 miles a year.

Insurance specialist? Sadly, that wasn't my experience.

Reply from Brentacre Insurance

Due to the specialist nature of the insurance we arrange, we don’t provide instant online quotes. Instead, the information submitted through our online form is reviewed by our team so we can assess each vehicle and your requirements individually.
We also apologise if there was any confusion regarding the term “insurable interest” during your first interaction with us. This relates to the ownership of the vehicle. In most circumstances, we require the policyholder to be the registered owner, registered keeper, and have the financial interest in the vehicle before we can arrange cover.
Having investigated your experience, we’re pleased that when we contacted you a second time, we were able to better understand your circumstances and provide you with a quotation. We hope this gave you a more accurate impression of the service we aim to provide.
Thank you again for your feedback, as it helps us identify where we can improve our communication and customer experience

Have been with Brentacre for nearly ten years and customer service is fantastic. They answer any questions promptly and nothing is to much trouble. Recently my car was sadly hit by a third party. I wanted Brentacre to take on the claim as fully trust they have my pride and joy in good hands.Darren was excellent and did everything and kept me updated constantly. The whole thing was sorted so quickly and efficiently. It’s not until u are in an accident that you realise how good your company is. The thing about Brentacre is they know how much there customers love their cars and they also care about your car. I wouldn’t fail to recommend them as absolutely amazing and five stars isn’t enough. Without Darren I don’t know where I’d be as he did everything.
