Report
Price was competitive, but they have email issues which they don't accept. I send and receive hundreds of emails every day, but ChoiceQuote is the only company that says they don't receive anything from me. I have tested the exact same sent email to a dozen or so friends in various companies and hot had any problem, but CoiceQuote say they don't receive anything and threaten to cancel my insurance.
They also have communication issues. I went as far to ask the agent to diarise to contact me the following day, which they said they did. Never heard from them again. Had this on more than one occasion.
