Fantastic experience.My adviser Richard has explained the policy in great detail and seemed very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. In the end Richard/Lowquotes got us a mortgage protection policy that is saving us a significant amount compared with our current policy.

Great experience from start to finish. Organised complex Mortgage Protection with great ease and when we had issues subsequently with a specific name on the policy the guys sorted us with little fuss. Communication from them as a company is top notch something rare nowadays- they respond quickly to all queries pre and post sale. would not hesitate for 1 second to recommend

Low quotes certainly live up to their name, they were almost 20% lower than my usual financial advisors best price and my usual advisor could not even get close on price. A saving of almost €20 a month for 20 years is well worth having.Alan my advisor was excellent even though I have bought or renewed life assurance products many times over the years Alan still managed to teach me a few new things about this product.I'm a happy customer and will be recommending you to my friends and family.

Eimhin de Róiste

09:31 07 Sep 22

John Hourigan sold us our life policy. He was sure to make certain that everything we asked for was provided and affordable. He was quick efficient and had excellent knowledge in his field. He didn't try any B/S tactics that a lot of brokers do and he didn't bombard us with a million calls either. He was informative and accessible and easy to work with. I'd recommend anyone take their policy with John.

Ann Murphy

11:49 27 Aug 22

I rang looking for a quote on a policy for myself and my wife, not quiet understanding the prosses I was a little anxious about the call. As soon as I got talking to John I was made feel very comfortable right from the start and he explained everything and cut through all the jargon so we could understand exactly what was happening. We ended up getting a policy with so much more cover and extras, and we are so so happy. This was a very pleasant ,comfortable and easy conversation and I highly recommend that you give these guys a call.Thanks John.Glen Dowling

Big thanks to the staff at Low Quotes. I found them extremely helpful and punctual with call backs. I couldn't fault my experience. If I had to pick one negative, it would be their call comes up on my phone as suspected spam. However after doing due diligence they are a legit and very helpful company.

Diarmuid O Malley

06:12 24 Aug 22

I enquired online about my life insurance and was promptly phoned back about my enquiry. Adam was great to deal with, talked me through what the policy would consist of and with a few simple questions was able to tailor a policy that would suit my circumstances perfectly. He was very likeable and easy to deal with and would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking into life insurance. I finished up with a great policy that’s suits and a smile on my face from it being made so straightforward and easy.
