Don’t use them

Don’t use them. £40 cancellation fee, no reason for the charge bar they can. Yes it’s in the small print, yes I should have researched more so that’s on me. But learn from my mistake and give them a wide birth. No one likes being ripped off.

UPDATE.
Okay Chris, your message insinuates there can be something done about this. You have a letter on its way to your complaints department and Ill keep this review updated on its progress. Let's see if you really are offering something or just trying to pacify a bad review.

I would not recommend this insurance…

I would not recommend this insurance provider at all!
Having made a error on my behalf, called to correct & was treated as criminal, the customer service from your office here in England or abroad, was truly disgusting.
Went with another provider & got more for my money with a clear & well managed customer service Team.

AVOID AT ALL COST

AVOID AT ALL COST! Unprofessional, misleading, tripled 1 missed direct debit and cancelled policy 24 hours after deducting the full balance from my account.
When I called, I was put on hold a number of times, and ended up spending an hour total just to be told to go online to get a new quote, as the policy couldn't be reinstated after cancellation, and money paid wouldn't be refunded either.
Call centre staff were hard to hear on the line due to background noise. Also, despite being told that everything was noted on the file, it in fact wasn't and I had to repeatedly explain my circumstances to different agents.
