Fits the bill

Good value but havnt had a claim so far Reviewed on: 17th July 2018

Excellent renewal price

After receiving a renewal price through the post from Hastings Direct, the price was quite a bit higher than what I was paying. I called to cancel my car insurance with them and the customer service agent I spoke to put my details through again to see if they could get a better price. They offered me payments that were £10 per month lower than what I was paying and lower than all the comparison sites had given me. Very happy! Reviewed on: 17th July 2018

Good service

Easy to contact, multiple routes, e.g online, phone. Reviewed on: 17th July 2018

No complaints

Easy to get a quote and sign up. I haven’t had to make any claims so can’t comment on how easy that process is. Reviewed on: 17th July 2018
