My personal questor-insurance.co.uk review:

The site doesn’t have the best design but it does the job offering good value car hire, motorhome rental and travel insurance. The customer support is good “Live Chat” is available during the purchase so if  I have a question it can be answered right away. You can also call Questor if you have any further question or visiting Questor Insurance’s site when live support is offline. They will send the insurance policy to your email address so no waiting for post to
arrive.
Every details well explained about the policy and all document displayed to review before you buy it. So I think there is nothing to hide no small prints or surprises after buying your insurance policy.  If you change your mind they providing a 14 cooling of period while you can cancel the insurance and Questor give you a full refund.

I would recommend questor-insurance.co.uk to buy your policy with. Their policies are written in plain English offering a good value for travelers. Ohh.. and Questor don’t charge you when you use a credit card.

    Hi Steve,

    May I first offer our sincere apologies for the issues you experienced with our website; these are not commonplace. I have looked into your particular case again, and as you have been earlier advised there were never any charges actually taken from your card. I trust we have met all your outstanding queries in subsequent support from our team.

    The issues regarding delay in answering calls and emails was purely a geographical one. We are based in the UK and therefore there may be more of a delay than is typical in responding to US based queries in terms of actual receipt of correspondence. This also explains the opening hours of our phone lines.

    Nevertheless, we appreciate your feedback and we always strive to do more for our customers.

    So Curt Klein wrote a nice review. And then it was removed? And Curt runs his own Excess Insurance For Car Hire business. So why was he using Questor?

    1. Thanks for your comment Chris.
      Just to make this clear I don’t have my own excess insurance business. I used different excess insurance product over the years.
      I wrote reviews about them. Thats all.
