Easy

Been driving a long time but never had my own insurance and and Brightside made taking my insurance out very easy and fare Reviewed on: 14th September 2019

20 minute standard wait time to get though on telephone

The long wait times to be connected to a customer service agent is the worst I’ve ever experienced. 20 minutes to get through and even then if you’ve got the wrong department another 10-15 minutes for someone to pick up the transferred call. Poor advice given when I phoned to check if I’d filled in the online comparison quote properly - as a result it cost me an additional premium to change and, of which they didn’t identify £35 was for admin fees! Reviewed on: 13th September 2019

Best value I could find

Easy to set-up online but wasn’t clear that taking the monthly payment option meant setting up a credit agreement with a third party Reviewed on: 13th September 2019
