Worst car insurer I’ve ever used! Non-fault claim fobbed off to accident management company who were useless! Cancelled my policy because my car was written off and I couldn’t find a replacement immediately so they had the nerve to charge me £75 for cancellation! Disgraceful! AVOID!

Cancelling policy

Poor customer service who are not helpfull at all no sympathy in my situation as to why I need to cancel my brothers insurance. They wanted me to get a legal document but I am not prepared to pay 100s of pounds to get a document poor quality service who didn't want to help me in any way or form Reviewed on: 27th December 2022

Do not buy

After cancelling my policy today with them found out they are insurance brokers not the main insurance provider for cancellations they will charge you the following. Just consider before purchasing £75 cancellation fee. Broker fee £50 direct debit fee Annual interest Annual premium fee No return of deposit Pay main insurance company few £ extra than a broker hassle. Reviewed on: 24th December 2022
