Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy Process & Great Prices Having had the same insurer for over 10years it was hard to change but once dealing with Budget Online and being able to sort both houses and cars out without long waits or huge premiums it was a no brainer. Yours Truly Satisfied Leslie

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Submitting a claim. Budget Direct is cheap for a reason.. you put in a legitimate claim for property damage and then you have to pay your own assessors to find the cause. They send out one assessor who is an engineer (not a builder, plumber arborist etc) or has no qualifications in regard to the damaged area (a bathroom) who then says our problem is from a tree in the neighbors yard (which I'm not responsible for). Budget Direct told me I will have to pay and get my own reports done to prove cause of damage and they are only going to go on their one engineer's report.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The smoothest claim I've ever made I phoned Budget Direct very stressed on the Saturday morning before Christmas when we realised our fridge had been damaged in a monster storm and was immediately put at ease, had my claim processed on the spot and approval to go straight out and buy another fridge and food for Christmas which had also been lost. It took me well over a week to get someone to look at the fridge as the timing wasn't very good with everyone off for the Christmas/new Year period, but as soon as I had the report I emailed the required documents to Budget on the weekend and by Monday morning had a call from a lovely lady in claims to tell me our claim had been approved and she put the money in my account within 3 days, to my surprise it was there the next day. The easiest and most stressful claim I have ever made in 50 years. I have no hesitation in recommending Budget Direct if you are looking for the same experience that I've had.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful Experience Although my daughter handled everything for me, to know how the whole process was handled was just brilliant. They kept in contact with her thru the whole process and it was so efficient, and for me at 89 they restored my faith in insurance companies. Well done Budget Direct !!!!!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Completely smooth process My previous insurer took their call centre off shore so decided to change. Fould out Budget Direct was Australian owned and call centre in Australian as well. Dealt with call centre and would give AAA rating.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Intuative process Budget provide an easy to navigate process of selection and applying for insurance products. Just remember you need proof of your no claim history. And that is not as easy as it sounds.
