Excellent customer service, great help, always available to answer any questions. As a first time insurance holder, I found Collingwood very easy to talk to and could easily get in contact with them if I needed to. Reviewed on: 3rd August 2021

Excellent service for learner drivers

Collingwood insurance was recommended to us by a friend. Our daughter has been having driving lessons throughout the pandemic so they have been a bit stop/start. Collingwood Learner insurance has given us the confidence to allow her to have more driving practice in her own little car with us by her side. It was quick and easy to set up with a very helpful customer assistant who explained everything well. We were able to opt for just 3 months full cover rather than committing to a full year. Fingers crossed she passes her test in that time! Reviewed on: 3rd August 2021

Worst company ever

I have a taxi insurance with them and when they issued the certificate they got the name wrong in the certificate, I contacted them to correct the mistake, and for 5 days I called them daily to issue my certificate correctly during which time I could not work but they collected the money, so for a maximum of 5 minutes during which they had to change my name and send me an email I waited 5 days, to say the least I waited to call them daily, after these 5 days I made a complaint and they told me that it takes 2 months to solve my complaint, if for a minor thing it takes 2 months if I have an accident how long does it take to repair my car ??? 2 years? if they want to fix my car, how serious they are I think they will find a reason ... so think hard before you sign with them...I contact them after few days and they don't want to answer at my emails Reviewed on: 26th May 2021

Awesome in every way

I used Collingwood for learner insurance. Being nervous and anxious about it all, Collingwood helped me over the phone and provided the best quote around whilst also focussing on me and being safe on the road giving me some great advice that I still follow today! Reviewed on: 19th September 2020
