“do not understand why third issue of car insurance confirmation does not include mileometer reading even though submitted nor why declaration of diabetes (DVLC aware) controlled by medication has been ignored even though you been advised 3 times !”

“I'm not sure that 'Classic Car' insurance is very fair. Before I took out insurance for my irregularly used second car I was told that I had no NCD as it was a second vehicle, even though I had 10 years NCD on my main vehicle. Now that I do have 1 year of such insurance they refuse to give me 1 year NCD because it is 'Classic Car' insurance which does not qualify for NCD. Having your cake and eating it I think!”

“Last year they were helpful and insured me for the year . This year no very pleased I've tried to phone them no answer , tried online chat no answer . They never told me how much my yearly insurance would be and when it was taken from bank I didn't have enough to cover it , nearly £400 . Next year I'll find someone else .”

“I can't say how good PD is as I have never had to make a claim, hopefully it is better than their use of the English language in their emails etc”

“Great insurance my second year only problem I have being , I pay mine monthly and I feel I am being ripped off slightly. Because I am paying monthly there’s quite a bit extra add on , I understand you pay a little extra which I have no problem with. But I feel it is definitely on the strong side. Will think about moving on next year !!”

“1. Renewal quote for my existing car - very good. Cheaper than last year 2. New quote for new car - terrible. Very difficult and very expensive”

“Good service and pricing. Only complaint is we had a minor accident with another car with a different insurer and even before the claim was sorted out, we were called and our premium increased considerably due the accident with the other vehicle. Bit strange, but there you go.”

“I didn't seem to get an email to remind me my renewal was due and didn't know the premium had been taken out of my account until I saw it later. I would have still used Performance as the cost of the insurance is still very reasonable.”

Hi Gary Thank you for sharing your feedback. If this is regarding a renewal, our renewal invitations are sent automatically and are issued under your current insurer. Once a customer contacts us, we can then search the market and various insurers to find you the best deal. I hope the above helps to explain why this process takes place but should you require any further information don't hesitate to let me know. Regards Emma Performance Direct

“While they seem to find good cover I find that their ability to track details on my insurance is highly random. Every renewal I seem to have to fix details they either knew about and have forgotten, entered incorrectly, or not updated when corrected last time. It is a frustrating waste of time. They also seem to think they can use email to send legal contracts and documents, but if I send them a statement they need a phone call or other validation. Good for goose but not gander.”

“Good price first year but then at renewal price goes up. Admin fees are doubled. If you call in yo query then these costs are flexible, and can make a difference Still a big on expensive side by comparison Not having to use their services it’s unfsir to comment on overall performance Keep sending me Thankyous for renewing after confirming that policy is not being renewed”

“I'm not quite sure spending more money on insurance can make me happy. I still find that having a increase in cost does not justify the work you've put in does not warrant it.”
