Great insurance company!

Used collingwood for my provisional car insurance and they couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful! Also a great price, especially helping out younger people like myself! Would highly recommend to new drivers! Reviewed on: 19th August 2019

Top Insurance

I have used this company on two occasions for both my daughters for their provisional license insurance. On passing their test a quick phone call to the company cancels the provisional insurance and a refund is immediately issued which is received quickly. I would recommend Reviewed on: 19th August 2019

Brilliant

So helpful and polite always so helpful with everything Reviewed on: 16th August 2019

Friendly and Value for money

My 17yr old son had insurance from Collingwood as a learner driver. They were very friendly whenever I called with questions on sorting out the best cover and were by far the best value for cover. When he passed his test they happily cancelled the remainder of the policy (with a partial refund!) without trying to sell me more insurance! Excellent service and I would thoroughly recommend them for learner driver cover. Reviewed on: 16th August 2019
