Rated 5 out of 5 by from Watch out "Big Insurance'! Budget Direct offered me a policy like-for-like saving me over $170 a year. My previous "Big Insurance" would put my premium up year on year for the past 4 by $11 a month whilst reducing the agreed value of the vehicle. The reason provided every single time was "Crime Rate in the LGA you live" I obtained current crime rate statistics for my area and it shows a downward trend of over 20% over the 4 years. Escalations regarding the continued price hikes did nothing as they finally admitted that there was no reason for the price rise, however, they were unable to change this. Pay the increase premium or move. I elected the latter.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Overall not a bad experience I need to mention the panel beater that they assigned to me in Bankstown is great. They did a great job to my car, they also lent me their car while they had my car. Great experience, thank you.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Extremely poor customer service and communication Budget Direct are hopeless at communication and customer service. When you call about your claim you are lucky if you get a representative that can answer any basic question. It is near impossible to get an answer and requires the customer to call numerous times to get a resolution. each call results in a team member giving you different answers than the previous. It is almost always required to escalate your claim to a team leader and when you request this you are advised it will be up to 48hrs for them to call you even after often waiting weeks for a resolution on your claim already, it is than unlikely you will receive a call back in that time frame and than you have to call again and spend yet more time on hold. Every claim i have had has taken a long time to resolve and has had numerous issues a long the way caused by Budget or their Nominated contractors.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Staff easy to talk to! Felt I lost out on making claim, would have been cheaper if I didn’t. Budget took how I felt about the situation and helped me ease the financial burden by negotiating with me. Never had service like it

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Personable, friendly service. I usually don't respond to online feedback however not in this case Budget Direct made the hunting for insurance experience a real pleasure and worth making a comment. Win /win great price and great interaction with their sales representative.
