The car is registered and used in Moscow. The owner is a citizen whose KBM = 0.95.

Reviews on the work of managers in the offices of Renaissance Insurance
The acquisition of compulsory insurance coverage at the Renaissance branch is one of the reasons why citizens become permanent policyholders of the selected organization. According to customer reviews of CTP in Renaissance Insurance, branch managers are interested in resolving customer issues. Clients have practically no complaints about the work of insurance agents.
What do the managers of Renaissance write on the services of Sravni.ru, Banki.ru and specialized forums:
- Specialists are distinguished by politeness, neat appearance.
- Agents are sympathetic to customer problems and try to do everything so that the driver is satisfied with the service.
- Managers do not impose “unnecessary” insurance if the client himself does not express a desire to purchase additional insurance protection. If the buyer wants to issue not only OSAGO managers offer the driver the maximum possible discount.
- Thanks to well-coordinated work in the branch, there are practically no lines of 3 or more people.
Sometimes a visit to the Renaissance office for a CTP policy leaves a negative impression on customers. In negative reviews on compulsory motor third-party liability insurance about the Renaissance Insurance group, buyers write that they were not satisfied with the process of acquiring insurance. The main complaints are related to:
- Failure to recalculate the KBM. If the client has made changes to the policy during the year, the calculation of KBM can be applied taking into account the data of the previous year. The problem is also observed when moving from another insurer: in this case, sometimes the client’s bonus-malus is calculated based on an average value of 1.
- Refusal to take out insurance. If clients do not have the necessary document, agents do not have the right to accept an application for compulsory motor third-party liability insurance, but some vehicle owners regard this as a negative example of a policy purchase.
- Incompetence and haste of workers. An incorrectly executed policy, errors in calculations cause indignation among attentive customers.
Error in the policy: what to do?
Sometimes, customers may be denied damages. One of the reasons may be an error in applying for a policy.
You can detect a defect using the website of the Russian Union of Russian Auto Insurers: the RSA database contains information on all OSAGO policies. If the client did not find his insurance after entering the documents, it is required to verify the correct spelling in the OSAGO sample. Information on the status of compulsory car insurance is presented in the section "CTP".
If during the check it turned out that the policy is defective, you should:
- Contact the insurer. The client can create an appeal in his personal account or come to the office of the company.
- Submit copies of documents.
Errors associated with incorrect character entry (typos) can be corrected within 24 hours. A policy with an incorrectly calculated period must be replaced. Information on the issuance of a new, revised document is entered into the SAR database. The client will receive a copy of CTP within 1-2 days from the date of application to Renaissance Insurance.
According to customer reviews, CTP in Renaissance can be corrected within 2 hours at the insurer's office and 5 hours when purchasing E-CTP. The insurer does not charge an additional fee if a mistake was made through the fault of an employee of the company or as a result of a technical malfunction.
Users of the Banki.ru and Compare.ru portals wrote that occasionally there is a delay in sending E-CTP. But company representatives always respond to customer requests and resolve similar issues within 24 hours.
Customer opinion: how to find out about the company?
Sometimes customers leave complaints about employees on the Internet using the popular services “Compare.ru” and “Banks.ru” and other specialized pages. In the reviews about the Renaissance Insurance group under compulsory motor liability insurance, vehicle owners write which agents and in which city caused outrage.
Such a “publicity policy” brings results: more than 90% of appeals and complaints on the Web do not go unanswered. CTP in the insurance Renaissance, according to reviews, is one of the key products, so the company is interested in maintaining a good reputation.
Cost of CTP in Moscow and other regions
Insurance in large cities does not differ from the acquisition of Renaissance Insurance policies in regional centers. The difference is only in the cost of insurance: depending on the territorial coefficient of compulsory motor third-party liability insurance in regions it is paid differently. According to the clients of Renaissance Insurance, in Moscow OSAGO will cost 2 times more than, for example, the small city of Kuznetsk in the Nizhny Novgorod Region, since CT in the capital is the highest in the country, and equal to 2.
The regional coefficient is set by the state annually. The calculation is based on information about the frequency of accidents depending on the region and traffic congestion.
Information is presented in an official document - Bank of Russia Ordinance No. 3384-U dated September 19, 2014. It contains not only territorial OSAGO ratios, but also information for calculation on other indicators, except for tariffs set by insurers.
The client can find out how much it costs to buy compulsory insurance at Renaissance online, at the office, or by calling the support service. Information is provided free of charge.
Compensation for CTP: customer reviews
One of the key indicators that characterize the work of the insurance company is the percentage of CTP insurance payments. It shows how drivers can be sure of damages, and how the insurer behaves, if necessary, to fulfill financial obligations.
Most of the negative reviews about the Renaissance CTP insurance are related to the payment of funds in the event of an accident (according to the comments of users of the Banki.ru financial portal). What users did not like:
- The insurer may delay payment. Repair funds were paid to customers after not 20 days, but 2-3 months. Negative reviews are related to compensation before the amendment of the OSAGO law. Under the new rules, the insurer no longer reimburses funds in the event of an accident, but pays for car repairs. The money is transferred to the account of the organization that the client chose to restore the vehicle. «» .
- , "." , . . 40 . , - "" , .

- Refusal to accept documents. In the event of an error in the policy or the provision of expired compulsory motor third-party liability insurance, customers cannot count on damages. Some citizens regard this as a bad work of the insurer, forgetting about the terms of the contract. In Renaissance Insurance, like any insurance company, auto repair funds are paid only to customers who are the owners of the policy with a valid term. In an accident due to the fault of the client, the victim will be paid compensation for the repair, but the insurer will apply a regression claim (refund for damage).
An error in the policy leads to a discrepancy between the information and the AIS CTP base. In order for the repair to be paid at the expense of the insurer, the policyholder must correct the errors in the policy in advance.
Does the company pay for CTP?
If we evaluate the general picture of compensation for damage by the Renaissance Insurance group of companies, the owner of the CTP insurance policy can count on repairs at the expense of the insurance company. But, according to reviews, CTP payments in the Renaissance are not always made in accordance with the law.
According to reviews from customers left on the inguru.ru portal, managers in Yekaterinburg are not entirely conscientious. So, some are trying to impose services, not giving the opportunity to get an application form for payment.
In the reviews on compulsory motor third-party liability insurance in the Renaissance Insurance of Yekaterinburg, vehicle owners sometimes mention that they were called to repair cars in a company not listed in the list of partner service stations.
In general, the insurer can sometimes violate the terms of the insurance contract, but does not shy away from financial obligations to customers. At the same time, in 2018, Renaissance Insurance was not included in the list of unprofitable organizations: income from the sale of compulsory motor liability insurance policies is 47% higher than the cost of car repairs for injured citizens.
Payments for total CTP in the Renaissance, according to reviews, are not always made on time. Clients from Nizhny Novgorod often complain about negative aspects associated with delayed payments (according to inguru.ru). According to reviews about the Renaissance Insurance in compulsory motor third-party liability insurance, in Nizhny Novgorod, some people were not paid compensation for the complete loss of the car for almost 2 months. The funds were transferred only after complaints: the insurer associated the delay with a technical malfunction.
Reviews about service stations and repair for CTP
In connection with the replacement of monetary compensation for compulsory motor third-party liability insurance with a “natural” indemnification in the form of car repair at the expense of an insurance company, customers have yet another problem - high-quality repairs at a service station (STO). According to the Law on OSAGO dated 04.25.2002 No. 40-, the client cannot choose where to send the damaged vehicle - the right to choose is assigned to the insurer.

Sometimes the services provided by the service station do not meet the expectations of customers. An example is customer reviews of Renaissance CTP insurance in St. Petersburg (according to inguru.ru). The owners of the vehicle faced a problem: the service station selected by the insurer did not have a license, in addition, the car service did not meet the requirements of the client. In the selected service station, it was not possible to make high-quality car repairs, which led to dissatisfaction and an increase in the time for fulfillment of obligations by the insurance company.
Another negative experience with compulsory motor third-party liability insurance in the Renaissance of St. Petersburg is that car owners cannot always repair vehicles from an authorized dealer, although this is indicated in a statement when contacting the insurer. From a legal point of view, Renaissance Insurance does not violate the law by choosing a car service at its discretion. But the example explains the lack of customer focus: vehicle owners sometimes have to go to 2 centers to make a complete repair, since the selected service station sometimes does not have the necessary equipment or a master.
