Hi, thank you for taking the time to comment and leave a review, renewing customers always receive a renewal savings that's applied to their quote, ensuring you pay less than a new customer for a like for like quote, however if you are unhappy with your quote then we always welcome customers to get in touch, we will always see if there is anything further we can do for you. Best wishes the Start Rescue team.

“So this is a mixed review. Having used START a couple of times, the outcomes were hugely different. On the first occasion it was a swift response within 40 minutes and I was satisfied with the service. The recent rescue however was a very different experience. A catalogue of errors and lack of communication led to a 5hr plus wait, and a missed event at my end costing me £100. Sadly not the review I'd like to have written. I have recently renewed on the hope that this was a one off.”

“Hard to rate really as not had to use the service (hopefully won't have to in the future). The online renewal was nice and easy, not a lot else I can say. "The proof is in the pudding" as we say here, if and when I need your service. Watch out for my review then 👍”

“Review request received hours after policy started, so this is a review of taking out a policy. This was fine, my annoyance was that it appears the start date will be the day the policy is applied for until you get to the final page of the application. I waited until the day I needed the policy to start and then found out that the earliest start time is 24 hours after taking out the policy. Start Rescue - why not make this work like other insurances - e.g. car and home - where the start date is selected someone near the start of the order process?”
