We value your feedback
This is my second year insuring my car with An Post Insurance, which is unusual for me. Normally the premium in year 2 is much higher than year 1 & I insure elsewhere! Not so with An Post Insurance. I got a better quote & policy this year. Everything about the entire process was hassle-free. Simple payment method & I received my documents, including insurance disc, in the mail the next day! An Post Insurance are definitely worth checking out... Martina 02 - Sept - 2024
