Excellent service for an excellent price

As a learner driver in the UK I wanted to be driving as much as possible to practice and needed insurance to be able to do that. After some research, I found Collingwood and was surprised by the easy process and the cheap price as a learner driver. Once I passed, the process to cancel was a 5 minute call with friendly customer service that had everything sorted within 10 minutes. Highly recommended. Reviewed on: 16th August 2020

Excellent insurance, hassle free to set up and for a great price with great cover. Lucky to pass first time and used internet chat on website when passed test. Insurance cancelled, no claims cert sent immediately and money left over as needed less than year refunded automatically.... Perfect. Thoroughly recommend! Reviewed on: 14th August 2020

Could not fault

On both occasions when contacting Collingwood Insurance via phone call, one to take out insurance policy and one also to cancel policy after passing my driving test, I got straight through to the customer service staff with no delays which was amazing. Both staff members I spoke to on both different occasions were so helpful, kind and patient with me when helping to answer any questions I had, and all information was gone through thoroughly to ensure I was 100% happy with my service before leaving the call. The service I received left me feeling very content with the choice I made to go with their insurance company, which helped a lot when knowing I would be spending my hard earned money with them specifically.
