Review of the Hastings Direct, Car insurance:

View on product page

Renewal increase of 25% for no reason

Received my renewal for my car insurance. I was paying £36 per month yet the renewal demands £45 per month. I've not had a claim, in fact I have 30+ years no claims, still live in the same street, no health problems and no points on my licence yet I have been saddled with a 25% increase year on year. Fortunately I had got a few quotes in as I anticipated this sort of trick. I phoned Hastings to cancel my policy on renewal as they craftily arrange it to auto renew. One of my quotes is from Directline, their quote is actually cheaper than the £36 I currently pay. The rep at Hastings wanted to see what they could do with the renewal price but I am not interested in dealing with a company that tries to have me over and neither should anybody else. People, don't fall for this renewal scam. I used a link on Auto Trader that browses insurance companies for a quote. I've used it for years and generally it is pretty reliable. Good Bye Hastings and stop trying to rip off your customers Reviewed on: 22nd August 2016
