Impossible to contact
There is no way to cancel a policy online. I waited for an hour in their holding system. Just don't use.

Never received documents online, no one answers phone, impossible to set up website account.
Policy was a far price and RAC cover was excellent. Polite emails, but no phone calls answered ( gave up after 15 minutes of repetitive music) And I don’t seem to have any emailed documents. Really wished I had requested paper copies through the post.

If police stopped me that would be a very expensive mistake on their part.
Avoid this company at all costs.
Asked what can I do know and been told I have to pay £ 175.00 because off their mistake.
Go straight to the
Financial Ombudsman services.
Very poor customer services.

Read moreOne Insurance Solution is part of Brightside. They let me down badly to the cost of approximately £1500 by claiming I was not covered. It turns out I was covered but now they are disputing they are liable for the recovery etc costs because of their telephone voice recordings not being clear. The investigation continues after about a month. I would not recommend Brightside as a consequence.

I phoned to explain that I had 4 valid reasons as to why I was in the right and was told very rudely that I should have read their T&c's.

Read more Brightside once called eCars, had bad publicity published in the Sun when called eCars check the papers archives, also once disclosed on Rip Off Britain and then changed their name to Brightside, ignore the reviews that have been sent in by people who have just taken out insurance, take notice of the ones that for whatever reason have further dealings with them they are the people to listen to, you will have a better chance of talking to the pope than speaking to someone on the phone, I’m giving you this advice free because they ripped me off ignore it at your peril.
Honest Dave.
