Michelin Anmeldelser 

UPDATE: Michelin Support finally came through and agreed to pay the cashback. Took up a LOT of time and effort, probably more than it was worth, but eventually they arrived at the right decision.

Original Review:

I've been buying Michelin tyres for years due to their cashback offers.

Normally, my local garage just supplies me a paper invoice with the price I paid for tyres which is the same place everywhere else charges, like BlackCircles etc, I submit that, they pay the cashback. Everyone's happy.

However because I had to use a big-name garage chain this time who massively over inflate their tyre cost then drop it down to what everywhere else charges with a discount line on the invoice, Michelin have denied the claim on the basis I received another discount.

I literally paid exactly what I always pay for tyres, and I've probably brought in excess of 20 tyres for various cars off them over the last couple of years alone.

I’ve used Michelin Cross Climate 2 tyres for many years on my old Range Rover and find them exceptionally good on pretty much any contaminated road surface, whether it’s rain, sleet or compacted snow. I bought a relatively new Range Rover Sport Autobiography Dynamic recently and I changed all four tyres to the Cross Climate 2 - I would have liked the Cross Climate 3 but unfortunately, those tyres are not available in a 22” rim, I have great confidence in the tyres, sure more costly than others, but these are not a budget tyre - I’ve always got excellent wear out of all my Michelin tyres, although I do replace them well before they reach the minimum legal requirement, in my opinion and experience, I honestly think they are the probably the best on the market.

Possibly the worst customer experience i've ever received . I hope nobody has to go through a warranty claim for a manufacturer issue with all 4 tyres at the same time.

Had Pilot Sport 4's on my Fiesta ST. Fantastic tyre all round. Just got PS5's fitted to replace them and rate them very highly. Very clean sidewall too which I like. Michelin also gave me £40 cashback which was a nice touch

Just got 4 Michelin pilot tyres and they drive and grip very well on my Mustang i would highly recommend these tyres.

i had two of these climate tyres previously and found they were a lot less noisier than the continental, so i have now had all four changed to climate tyres and now i can hear the radio without having it blaring,plus they are as good in bad weather as they are good,highly recommend these tyres.

Spent nearly £900 on four Michelin tyres after being told I’d get at least £40 cashback. Filled in the claim form as advised, only to be told I’m not eligible due to tyre size – something buried in the small print, never mentioned at the point of sale.

This is classic false advertising. Big company using technicalities to wriggle out of a simple promise. Totally unacceptable. Won’t be buying Michelin again. Judging by the 2.8 rating, I’m not the only one

Over 28 days since I made a claim that was accepted. Three emails to notify of non receipt after 28 days expired and all ignored. I have NOT received my €35

EDIT: So I upped my review from 1* to 4*.
3.5* would be more accurate but anyway.
Michelin relented and paid the promotion and in any case Michelin tyres are great tyres albeit expensive.
Nevertheless its a poor promotion where through no fault of the customer his cashback claim is rejected.

Bought 4 new Pilot Sport 4s tyres for the not inconsiderable amount of £1050...but at least I thought the £100 cashback offer would take the edge off the price a bit. But alas not so.
Despite buying the tyres from a registered Michelin dealer and filling the form correctly, my claim was rejected...apparently the suppling tyre dealer had already used a voucher for the tyres unseen by me despite the offer being specifically only for private retail customers and not for tyre dealers. Didn't get anywhere when ringing Michelin CS, which was disappointing, I thought they were better than that.

When I purchased my Ford C-Max the reviews mentioned that the car rode very well on Michelin Primacy tyres and I have always had them fitted. I have just had four new Michelin Primacy 5 tyres fitted and I have to say that the ride on my six year old C-Max is as good as ever. very smooth and comfortable with great road holding!

Can't understand why people had problems with cashback offer got mine no problem.via camskills whom I've used many times for our 2 cars.anyway bought michelin even without the offer my alpina always has michelin fitted.used them since my 2.8 ghia x granada had them although dear I reckon these are the best tyre for me. Could have used other makes but got a great price from camskills. So we'll done to them and michelin

Using Michelin all my life. They made me very angry after I had to scan and claim back an offer. They emailed me that they can't go on with the claim because my invoice was not clear. I think it's a scam offer. You share all your details and then they refuse to pay you. I might consider using another company in the future. I lost literally 20 minutes of my life on the phone and another 5 to give this review.

I purchased 4 new Pilot Sport tyres for Boxster GTS, mainly because I had these tyres previously but also the £100 cash back was an added benefit.
Great tyres, you always know that you’ll end up facing the right way! 😁

F150 ...6 mo. 4000 miles on these....Worst tires I have ever owned, hands down. The tires are rough to ride on and "squirmy" (which I thought was new tire break in...nope) they loose traction on bumps and seams...freeway speeds have strange skittering feeling with the ride.....theres a 40 mph curve by me that has a small bump and patch on it and when ever I hit it the back end gives a little lurch and shift sideways not a full loss of contact , its just a momentary "skip". This happened when there was a frost on the road and it scared the hell out of me .I called it in to Michelin, CSR was really nice and helpful. Saying something wasn`t right ,that I should take it in for replacement for a different set of Michelins ,long story short when the tire shop called them in they offered a 45% credit toward another set .....not what I wanted to hear after paying (price redacted by Michelin) on tires to start with....last night they lost traction on a light acceleration, avoiding a intersection colision in the rain, I lost traction and fishtailed as I moved forward... Luckily it was only a 25 mph road . If that had happened on the freeway in traffic......
These "feel" like cheap over inflated tires. They are not either of those things.....there are better options out there....these are not safe tires.....

I purchased four new Michelin tyres for a number of reasons, but they also stood out because they claim they will give you £100 cash back on receipt of proof of purchase. However if you read the small print they will refuse this claim if you have received any other offers from your retailer. Based on the fact that most tyre retaillers have some sort of offer on at any time its unlikely Michelin will ever pay this cash back. Very deceitful in my opinion, surely if you make an offer as a manufacturer it should not be dependent on offers from other third parties.

I purchased my two michelin pilot sport 4 tyres for my golf as I was pleased with my old ones, even better I claimed cash back through the Michelin promotion, I took a photo of the invoice completed the form all has been approved within 48 hours, I'm very happy as I was purchasing these tyres anyway as the a proper performance tyre.

I bought a set of 4 cross-climate SUV tyres supplied and fitted through a local independent retailer. The MIchelin promotion included with the deal promised up to £80 discount. I followed the application instructions with the full expectation of lengthy delays and further complex admin. I was delighted to find my claim approved and fully sorted within 24 hours.

The whole asda cashback thing is a total scam !!! Don't be a fool and fall for it like i did. First they ask you to get the tyres, once you get them, they ask for proof of purchase (invoice), which I noticed ASDA don't actually send you, you have to request one. Once you do you give them the invoice, they say they will get back to you, a week later you get and email to say your claim has been approved and asda will send you the voucher in 7 days by email, 7 days later nothing, you try and get in touch and your email is blocked. Its a scam don't fall for it !!! Its been a month and nothing, don't waste your time!!

I own a Nissan R35 GTR, which as most people know, is a high performance super car. Therefore it is absolutely essential for my car to have the best tyres available in terms of performance in all weathers and at high speeds. That would explain why a GTR is factory fitted with Michelin Pilot 4S tyres which are brilliant in all weathers especially in wet conditions.

Last year I drove my GTR from the U.K. to Portugal via France and Spain and my car was glued to the tarmac even at speeds in excess of 150mph and in hard rain.

These Michelin tyres are simply the best you can get. I have just recently bought my 2nd set of Michelin Pilot 4S tyres and I would not even consider any other tyres

A lot of tyre for the money with high performance and safety as standard !

Michelin cashback offer is a scam. Not what you expect from a supposed reputable company. They tell you which tyre centres can only be used, which is fine. I followed this. I chose Formula 1 as per their list. The invoice shows wheel balancing charge extra to the fitting price then they deduct it, its just how formula 1 always show it on their invoice. You dont get a choice in this, the its how the tyre centre do their invoice and always have whenever ive used them. So Michelin then decline the claim as it 'contains a discount from another offer'. It doesnt -its what the tyre centre automatically do that Michelin tell me i have to use - so that they can decline their own offer! At best fraudulent by Michelin.
