Rated 3 out of 5 by from They approve your claim, no problem The claims process works... just slow. 8 weeks from accident till car was at repairer. There wasn’t a concern about them paying. But given the accident happened in a car park and we were stationary, there were ‘at fault’ complications. Still not sure whether the witness was called but we paid the excess and the car got fixed. Not sure whether I will renew.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Friendly and professional. My customer service agent was excellent. Personable yet completely professional. Knowing I had three vehicles to cover, I was completely prepared with all details. I would encourage you to be prepared with as much detail as possible to make the process easy for all parties. Overall, this was an easy and relaxed process with policies arriving via email within half an hour.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Home contents review I found the process to gather information around Budget Directs website very easy. The price for our Home Contents Insurance was very competitive to other Companies. This was also a factor in purchasing from Budget Direct. Very Happy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy, cheap process it was a very simple process. I didn't have to spend forever on the phone and my policy was outlined in an easy to read format. I managed to save nearly $60 on my monthly premium which is just fantastic for a mum to be. The price nearly knocked me off my chair a massive savings compared to other businesses. Couldn't be happier with the switch :)

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Claims take far too long I have been waiting almost a month for my claim to be completed, there has been minimal communication and they needed more information that they didnt ask for at the time of the claim

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy, Easy, Easy I couldn't be happier with the service I got from Budget Direct, always friendly and helpful, the claims process was amazing to me... i called, they recognised my number, had all my policy details, no mucking around... I advised someone had hit me, i provided their details and they approved me over the phone in 10 min, the Panelbeater called me 20 min later; really happy with the repairer also.. it was so easy, I'm really happy...

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Waste of time Bad communication, getting information about our claim was like pulling teeth, they only cared about getting us to pay our excess upfront - when I refused I was given attitude.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great service from Budget Direct I recently had a broken windscreen and luckily had car insurance with Budget Direct. They were extremely helpful from the moment I rang them. Their preferred repairer rang me quickly, got everything underway and kept me informed of when my repair was likely to be done. I had an unusual windscreen that took a few days to get in but they kept me up to date throughout the whole process and once the new windscreen arrived, had me booked in and repaired in no time. Great service Budget Direct!!!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Easy as! The Budget Direct website allowed easy completion of an application process. The online calculators helped with estimating the cost to rebuild a house, something most of us would not know!!!
