Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re unhappy with your experience, this isn’t how we want our customers to feel when taking out a policy with us.

In relation to your concern, when a policy is set up using monthly instalments, this involves entering into a credit agreement. As part of this process, a hard credit check is carried out, which is standard for this type of agreement. Customers are made aware of this during the application before proceeding.

We understand this can sometimes come as a surprise, and we appreciate your feedback. If you would like to discuss this or anything else further, please contact us on https://help.cycleplan.co.uk/hc/en-gb/requests/new and an advisor will be happy to assist you!

Kind regards,

The Cycleplan Team

I have no idea what the company is like because I only took the policy out a couple of days ago. I think that asking me to review a company this soon is frankly ridiculous.

Hi Mark, 

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review and leave us feedback. 

I can confirm that the review invite is sent through to all customers when they take the policy out with us, this can be to leave comments on the quote process or if you had dealt with an advisor and wanted to leave some feedback.

It is optional, and you do not need to leave a review if you have no comments to make but I appreciate your frustration and will pass on your feedback to the relevant team so they are aware. 

If you would like to discuss this or anything else further, please contact us on https://help.cycleplan.co.uk/hc/en-gb/requests/new and an advisor will be happy to assist you!

Kind regards,

Hi Luke, thank you for your feedback and for leaving us a review. 

We’re sorry to hear you feel this way. Cancellation fees for ending a policy mid-term are standard across most insurance providers, as there are administrative and regulatory costs involved in setting up and cancelling cover before the policy has run its full term. This is also outlined within the terms and conditions of you being insured with us, you will have agreed to these when taking the policy out. 

While adding a bike to a home insurance policy can be an option, specialist bicycle insurance often provides additional benefits that may not always be included under standard home cover. These can include features such as accidental damage, theft away from home, higher value limits, and more tailored protection designed specifically for cyclists.

That said, we understand that every customer’s needs are different, and it’s important to choose the cover that best suits your individual circumstances and how you prefer to protect your belongings.

If you would like to discuss this or anything else further, please contact us on https://help.cycleplan.co.uk/hc/en-gb/requests/new and an advisor will be happy to assist you!

Kind regards,
The Ripe Insurance Team
