A1 Approved Opiniones 

I purchased my car from Phantom, and initially, the buying process was smooth and professional. I trusted the company and felt confident in my purchase.

However, I am extremely disappointed with the warranty provider nominated by the dealership, A1 Approved Limited. I purchased the Gold Warranty for peace of mind, expecting proper support if any mechanical issues occurred.

Unfortunately, when my car developed a genuine problem, the claims process became very frustrating. I was repeatedly asked for photos, videos, and additional evidence multiple times. Each time documents were provided, more information was requested. Eventually, the claim was refused.

This experience has left me feeling very disappointed and misled. I paid for a Gold level service expecting protection, but instead, it feels like the warranty company looks for reasons to reject claims rather than support customers. It is extremely upsetting to pay for coverage and then not receive the help promised when you actually need it.

I hope Phantom carefully reviews the warranty companies they nominate, as this directly affects customer trust and satisfaction

The person on the phone argued with me about why my car wasn't covered for consumable parts that are required to replace when parts are changed, and even when I had prior approval to get the full cost of the parts covered under warranty even with dealer parts they've changed their response and said they wont cover it all, and also they only cover £50 an hour in labour where no garage charges that little even their partner garages refuse to charge that small amount, the policy also states that each claim can be upto £5000 theyre refusing to cover basically any of the bill saying the item that needs doing with the failed item wont be covered because thats not what failed, this is a scam warranty and they refuse to cover most of the problem DO NOT TAKE OUT THIS WARRANTY!!!

Edit: the total bill comes to just under £1200 and as you see from their reply they dont cover basically anything and try to get out of paying for what needs doing as per manufacturer's requirements plus they'll only cover the aftermarket cost for parts and not the proper amount which needs covering even their "partner" garages are refusing to deal with them at all especially at the prices they offer to cover!!!!!

This review is to personally thank "Jack" from A1 Warranty for his support in my recent warranty claim.
Initially the claim was only part paid due to the fact that it was classed as "wear and tear/ seized item", however after personally speaking to A1 the contribution was increased.
If the claim is valid A1 are there to listen to you and if they feel the claim is justified they will support you the best they can! Thank you once again for all your support

Great service and they approved the repair within a few hours. No issues at all - highly recommend

Overall a bit pointless. I had 2 issues on my car, one an ABS ring, not covered, another part of the turbo, not covered.

SCAM! DO NOT CONSIDER

I had the platinum warranty cover that clearly states it covers the radiator. My radiator suddenly cracked and led to my engine overheating so needed urgent repair.

They refused to pay out claiming it was wear and tear.

Any claim they will just say wear and tear.

An absolute scam of a company. I would avoid with a barge pole.

Shocking don’t use

I HAVE USED A1 WARRANTIES TWICE IN THREE WEEKS,I WAS DEALT WITH QUICKLY AND WITH MINIMUM FUSS,THE STAFF WERE REALLY HELPFUL AND MY ISSUES WERE RESOLVED VERY QUICKLY,I CANNOT RECCOMEND THEM HIGHLY ENOUGH!

Terrible. Not worth the paper it is written on. We broke down as the alternator has gone on our car. A1 are only paying a tiny fraction of the cost including a ridiculously low payment for labour. They are claiming the job will only take an hour, paying labour at a rate below any garage I know of, and all the parts that are required to complete the job other than the alternator itself are not covered.

Everyone I communicated with at A1 Approved was very courteous, professional, and they dealt with my claim very quickly

I brought a 2nd hand car that came with an A1 Approved warranty for 6 months. Unfortunately within 2 months of purchase the car developed a leak from the automatic gearbox ,which turned out to being a whole gearbox rebuild/new clutch etc.
The bill came to £3700 ! Ouch ,so we claimed under Warranty and after about a week A1 approved agreed to pay £2000 which was the maximum single repair cost as shown in the warranty booklet.This is totally acceptable to us and to be honest we were expecting a fight to get that much ,but they dealt with the garage throughout the process and paid when they said they would.
So although we still had to pay a considerable sum of money ,it was less than half what it could of been .so THANK YOU A1 APPROVED

I bought a Platinum Warranty for a year as recommended by the car dealer but recentlyhad to make a claim, after being asked to avoid main dealers i eventually found three garages capable of carrying out the work (jag ipace heater pressure unit 8-9hour job), I.ve had to make numerous phone calls to chase this up as A1 seem incapable if keeping customers informed and eventually found out ,from the garage, that they had decided that the work should be done in 4hrs instead of 8 and reduced labour cost by 30%. I,m ending up paying more than 50% to have the car repaired. Warranty is not fir for purpose if you have a specialist vehicle so look at other options, this one's not worth the money

Hi, Claims NOT approved, just to let you know, I am cancelling my ongoing card payment. Further to my failed claim for the second part of the repair to my vehicle, I found our phone conversation very unhelpful. The gist of which was that if it's not approved, we are not paying. The first part was (blamed the garage for incompetence).
I will not go into the reasons why the car needs further repairs because you are not interested, only interested in taking people's money and being as obstructive as possible to avoid paying for genuine repairs. I was made to feel like I was trying to con you, but it's the other way. I have had this Gold Warranty Policy for at least 3 years, costing £1188. You only paid half the first stage of the last repair, and for one replacement spring from a previous repair. Looks like a profitable option not to approve or make it very difficult to get repairs approved, requiring video evidence of the problems, proof of servicing, etc

I would not recommend your warranty to anyone. very obstructive to get genuine repairs. There might be a reason for this

Not impressed, Brendan Gribben

Very nice company, had a 02 sensor go. They asked for a fault code and quote then approved within 1 hour. Thank you

Quick easy and professional when making a claim for a front broken suspension spring and prompt payment made to the garage

These have helped us out alot with new calipers when we first got vehicle as we had some issues also broken coils springs and also yesterday they help us bye refunding half back they couldnt help with rod end ball joint as this was worn and not broken witch is wear and tear unfortunately but they have really helped us out i definitely will be looking at renewing most ot advisers iv spoken with have been lovly and straight forward even if in past they havent be able to approve but most of the stuff we've had issue with they have approved bar one issue

my claims were acted on straight away so my car was fixed in grate time, How ever A1 failed to pay the full amount, despite me having the best and top warranty they offer, i also paid in full, so any problems with my car was covered. but they didn't apply with my warranty term's i paid for.

CLAIMS ARE HANDLES PROMPTLY AND WITH TRAINING TRAINED INDIVIDUALS WHO ALL HAVE GREAT KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING

My experience with A1 Approved has been nothing less than faultless, they have helped me out within hours of sending them emails, with absolutely no hesitation when they have been given the correct information from me or the garage. Trustworthy and worth the money.

Excellent throughout our claim. We had a very straightforward experience, within 12 hours of the repairing garage submitting the report of the fault and work needed -A1 approved the claim and amount. Within 1 hour of me submitting the invoice the money was transferred to me. This really helped us out as it was an expensive repair. So glad we took out the warranty. At renewal we took the opportunity to improve our cover. Everyone that I contacted via phone or email were excellent. Great service thanks team A1
