My experience of this terrible and…

My experience of this terrible and untrustworty company has not been a good one..
I paid for a policy prior to it beginning.
Was contacted to say they wanted to ammend a detail that would bring the price up significantly .
They then charged me £55. to cancel a policy that hadnt even began.
Customer service is unhelpful and robotic.
Didnt even bother to reply to my email regarding the issue and took £55 from my payment.
Shameless practices in my opinion.
Most certainly wouldnt recommend .

Interesting that you only reply when I write a review . Ill say no to your invite to contact your webpage as it was no use last time.
Reference number is... NIPX22PC01

Customer service is non existent

Customer service is non existent, may offer good prices but if you need help and reach out to them they are very slow to answer and not very good when they do.
Hi Molly, as I was unable to get a reply or speak to a customer advisor, I don't have those details. I waited over 30 minutes for a reply on chat even though there was 0 in the queue ahead of me.

Morgan

Morgan. 224 miles last year but still pretty good price - except that the commission virtually matches the premium! Service good
