What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Policyholders with cars, homes and private hire vehicles have been served by this Partick brokerage for years, and the accounts that recur centre on named staff rather than anonymous call handling. Louise appears repeatedly, praised for securing competitive car insurance and for guiding renewals with patience, while Neil is mentioned alongside her for the same attentive manner. Laurie Ross itself is described as combining modern practice with traditional customer focus, and the managing director, June Lynch, is credited with a culture that keeps clients returning.

Several reviews highlight expertise in less straightforward cases, including one customer whose tenement property raised concerns that staff resolved by finding a suitable policy. Communication stands out: during a claim, one client recalls being kept informed and the broker pressing the insurer so documents were processed and payment released promptly. Speed recurs too, with a quote completed over the phone in around twenty minutes, and pricing is described as competitive, with one saving noted against a previous provider. Problems and queries are handled by the same familiar contacts, a point that comes up often in accounts of renewals and claims, and private hire insurance features among the work undertaken.

The insurance broker Louise was so helpful and obtained a competitive car insurance rate for me.

Had the pleasure of dealing with Louise and Neil at the Partick branch, both of whom were absolutely fantastic. Although my renewal quote from another provider was slightly lower than the one offered by Howden, having a local broker and familiar points of contact is far more valuable to me than dealing with a large call centre. 5 start service from Louise

Laurie Ross Inurance (Partick) have been very helpful. I had worries relating to my property being in a tenement and the staff ensured they found a policy that addressed my concerns.

Have dealt with Laurie Ross for the past 20 years for my taxi insurance. Initially at their Maryhill branch and now through the Partick branch. I haven't experienced any problems whatsoever. The only thing is with modern technology, I don't even have to call into the branch to renew my policy. Brilliant, first class service.

I was delighted with the impeccable treatment I received recently when I contacted Laurie Ross for an estimate for Home Insurance... They managed to get me an excellent deal which I accepted with a saving of £40 per month .
