Liberty Seguros are appalling and I truly have no idea how they get away with it. I had a bad accident in my car (single vehicle) and I have phoned every telephone number I have seen listed for Liberty Seguros, emailed their supposed Customer Services department, on one occasion I telephoned and thought I had got through and was hanging on for 47 minutes and then got cut off before I could say anything at all. Their Agent in Albox is appalling, making so many mistakes, telling lies about visits with the assessor to the garage where the car is being looked at. I am now dealing direct with LIberty or would be if I could get them to answer any email or phones call. All this and they boast about having over 200 English speaking Staff available to ex-pats, what a joke that is! Beyond terrible insurance Company. The accident nearly cost me my life and the stress and worry of dealing with this awful Company is on par with the accident. They will worry and stress you to the grave!
Guy Walker says
Do not use this company to insure your boat!
Liberty Seguros refused to refund the 11 months not used when I sold my boat.
They stated they only refund for houses and cars when you sell them – what is the difference a policy is a policy????
Elizabeth Sweeney says
I have 5 policies with Liberty Seguros, my neighbour in the penthouse flooded my apartment and Liberty had to do was to contact the community insurer. I have written several emails to them with the details of the community insurance information and no response from them. In my opinion, they are a useless company that extort money from people under the guises of providing you insurance.
Mark says
Awful company. Had the rear screen of my Citroen C5 broken (Spain)So far car has been off road for about 8 weeks. Apparently cannot find a screen!! No offer of a hire vehicle no real updates. Shocking
Ian Mulholland says
The broker for my Spanish reg car, recommended Liberty for a UK reg car I bought in UK, intending to bring to Spain to matriculate & in future use for the journeys to & from UK, where I take long vacations. Not sure if as a EU resident in Spain, I could do this, Liberty assured me it was legal. However, having seen a long list of horror stories about UK nationals having UK reg cars impounded, I asked the reasonable question :’ I know the car is insured , for any qualified person to drive it. BUT – the interface between Liberty Seguros and Spanish law on who can drive UK reg cars is far from clear. It appears UK nationals with Spanish residencia, tax resident in Spain – cannot drive UK reg cars, even for a short period pending matriculation – please confirm the position?’ NO Reply from their head office, and so far neither from their agent who sold the policy. Worth checking out if thinking about doing the same thing. Wish clarification could resolve this, as I am soon to bring this car into Spain. What could possibly go wrong!
P. Taylor says
we were involved in an accident to which we admitted fault. we have 2 car insurances with them and the car involved we had to pay 600 euros excess, paid it but took the car 9 months to fix. now we have the car back we have an electrical fault which after having driven the car from the uk and using it for 18 months prior to the accident it now has an electrical fault. as you can guess they haven’t accepted liability for this. we now have to pay land rover to sort the problem which they caused out of our own pocket. i have emailed them but to no avail. what a joke this company is. take you money and forget what customer services actually are. needless to say i could not care less if i pay double the amount when it comes to renewal and certainly wont use or even recommend them. worst company ive had the pleasure of dealing with here in spain.
William Geldeard says
Very impressed with the excellent service we had from Liberty Seguros, Albox , Spain.
We were traveling back to Almeria Spain through France on the evening of the 30.12.17 when we hit a wild boar on a dark country road south of Bordeaux,
The car suffered damage to the radiator and lost all the coolant, Fortunately we managed to stop in a small village before the engine overheated so no damage was done apart from the radiator being split on one side.
We called Liberty the next morning who arranged a breakdown truck to take the car back to our home in Spain.
They arranged a taxi to come from Bilbao to Sarbes and take us to Bilbao airport where a hire car was booked for us and the next day we drove the1,036 kilometers back to Almeria Spain.
Our car arrived at our home 9 days later and I am now carrying out the necessary repairs.
Thank you very much for a hassle free service especially as our problem occurred on holiday weekend (New Year)
Yours Sincerely
William Geldeard

A totally terrible insurance company.
My neighbor is building on her terrace, which is my outside roof, and caused a large water damage throughout my apartment.
This is four months ago, and Liberty does nothing.
There are just new people constantly looking at the apartment but nothing happens.
The apartment can not be inhabited and is still full of water in ceilings and walls, but no rent for other space is covered and the damage is not repaired.
Has received a ridiculous offer of an amount of 2000 € for a total damage apartment and broken furniture.
Stay far away from this company it’s absolutely terrible ..
Bas Leenhhouts says
Disgusting service, no English speaking contact, rejecting your claim immediately and so on, 6 months of batteling…..A disgrace company, to avoid. ( fire in the house, 350 euros rejected without reasons )
Kenneth Johnstone says
Ihave vehicle insurance with them for my motorhome and when returning from France in August 2015 I had the misfortune to have a problem. I rang the rodside assistance and was told to call French emergency as it ws on a freeway. The french were brilliant and we were soon picked up sorted and rady to travel again , however Liberty or their assistace people refused to pay the garage for the recovery. We had to pay for the recovery there and then to allow us to continue . I have visited the brokers Easycover in Torrevieja several times given all the necessary paperwork to prove the claim , this has been sent to liberty and I am still waiting for the refund of the money I paid on 29/08/2015 nearly two months later. This company are dreadfull and should be avoided . They were happy to leave us stranded on a French freeway and had it not been for the French emergency we would still be there
Gordon Anderson says
AWFUL and ridiculously bad company . Over 6 months ago my vehicle caught fire whilst at a mechanics . I have had every delay tactic going from liberty and Libelous remarks about the mechanics and I have been constantly being asked to handle most of the claim myself and to get this and that information from the garages insurance company or owners of the Garage , appalling service when all this should be down to them to do. Because they couldn’t be bothered to send out an assessor themselves or contact the police , they are making up facts to suit themselves. Now they are being pushed they have offered me less than half of what I paid for it 10 months previously , there is no way I can buy a replacement with what there are offering but they say they will claim it back for the Garages insurance. Their attitude has been offer me a pittance and take the P , easy cop out, lazy and unprofessional .

Pauline Blunt says
We were burgled on Friday 17th May when our front door was levered from the frame in seven places. The broker was quick to get an assessor out who gave the go ahead to have a new front door fitted. No problem we thought so instead of having to keep the front door jammed with wood we got it replaced. A month later we are still waiting for the assessor to file his report so that the claim can be processed. Now we are being harrassed by the supplier of the front door for payment which we can understand from his point of view but why we have to be out of pocket.should not be our problem. We are calling the insurance company daily!
Liz Daniels says
I have had business insurance with Liberty, through Knight. This year I made my first claim. I first reported a serious water leak with damage to two rooms in February. The assessor arrived several days later and a plumber after that. The plumber removed a water tank but did not replace it. He dug into two walls leaving the debris on my terrace. The leak stopped. For seven weeks I fought to get them to replace the water tank which was obstructing the terrace, to make good the damage done by the plumber and to repair the water damage in the rooms. Eventually they returned the tank and I paid for the wall and room repairs privately as I needed to open the Hostal. Liberty refused to pay on the grounds that only two rooms were damaged. I cancelled the policy and they then offered me €863. It is now late August. I have received nothing and liberty tell me they have paid my compensation to someone else and have asked me to try and get the money from this other person. My annual payment was €1500. It bought me no cover. It cost me seven months of heartache. Don’t use liberty!
David says
Spot on!
My claim was submitted and agreed12 months ago!
Martin Goodgroves says
I have home insurance with Liberty Seguros through Knights in Estapona, recently had a water leak problem and they were excellent, my damage claim and the water damage to the apartment below us has been agreed very quickly, they had a loss adjustor out to inspect the day after I reported and claim agreed within three weeks (even though it is August when most of Spain takes the month off).
I am now looking at buying a car and the quotes have been very competitive for a quality policy and I have the confidence that they would handle any claim well.
Martin Goodgroves says
I take back all I said above excellent initially has turned into long term horreendous, it took a year with much pressure to get Liberty to act, 9 seperate loss adjustors and tradesmen were sent for my apartment alone and 12 months to get paid, they decided after 7 months that their original decision to send tradesmen they instructed was not the correct way to go then even when I had obtained three quotes as requested they took another 3 months to make an offer of half the quote costs and then two more months of toing anf froing where I had to do all the chasing, knights in san pedro are hopeless when it comes to claims.
My neighbor is still waiting 18 months after the flood for any sign of payment and have had to lay out money for repairs to expensive aircon repairs, there is no sign of liberty acting fairly, I am at a loss of where to go from here.
