WORST INSURANCE COMPANY I HAVE EVER DEALT
0 STAR – WORST INSURANCE COMPANY I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH. AVOID ZEGO AT ALL COSTS. Zego is an absolute disgrace. Their customer service is... 0 STAR – WORST INSURANCE COMPANY I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH. AVOID ZEGO AT ALL COSTS. Zego is an absolute disgrace. Their customer service is appalling and their so-called “technology” is completely broken. The driving-monitoring app, which acts as a sensor, is a joke and clearly not fit for purpose. I have been a safe, careful driver for over 25 years. I chose Zego only because the price looked cheaper than other insurers and I was confident my driving would easily meet their standards. Most of my driving is below 30 mph — school runs, Tesco, gym, local roads. Yet their faulty app rated my driving as ZERO. Zero. That is beyond ridiculous. After 30 days, they started sending threatening warnings saying my insurance could be cancelled if I didn’t “improve”. This caused huge anxiety — not knowing when they might suddenly cancel, force me into much more expensive insurance, disrupt my daily life, and potentially leave a black mark on my record that could affect future premiums. When I decided to move to a better insurer, the nightmare continued. Initially, via their so-called “chat-first” support (no proper human support, only bots and scripts), I was told I could cancel on a future date. Later, I was told the exact opposite — that I cannot schedule a future cancellation and must come back on the exact day, go through their long, painful bot interrogation again, and only then find out if I would even get any refund before being allowed to cancel. Complete contradiction, total chaos, and clearly designed to trap customers and delay exits. When I finally cancelled, they charged me £100for just a ONE DAY of cover, when the total annual policy was only £850. This feels like daylight robbery. are not an insurance company — they operate like a trap. They lure you in with cheap prices, then use broken tracking technology, threats of cancellation, confusing processes, and extortionate exit fees to squeeze money out of you. In the event of a real claim, I have absolutely no confidence they would stand by you. Insurance is meant to give peace of mind. Zego delivers fear, stress, uncertainty, and financial loss. Do not be fooled by their low price. Do not trust their app. Do not trust their processes. Do not trust their intentions. Worst in the business. System designed to intimidate and extract money. ZERO STARS. AVOID. AVOID. AVOID. Read more Read less

Faulty Telematics Tracking Ruined My Driving Score

I recently took out a telematics policy with Zego that was due to start on 17 February. However, as soon as I installed the telematics app it began recording all of my movements, not just when I was driving. The app logged journeys when I was a passenger in an Uber, on buses, and even on trains, and these trips were counted toward my driving data. As a result, the system recorded frequent “harsh events” (often 25+), which quickly pushed my driving score into the red and marked me as “at risk,” despite the fact that many of those journeys were not me driving at all. There was also no way to speak to a real person directly. Support appears to be handled through automated chat, and it was never clear whether I was actually communicating with a human or not. This made it very difficult to resolve what seemed to be an obvious problem with the telematics tracking. To their credit, once I raised the issue and cancelled the policy, Zego refunded my payment minus a £49 admin fee. However, the experience with the telematics system and lack of direct customer support made the service frustrating to deal with. Read more Read less
