Do not buy

Do not buy. Just paid for what I thought was insurance but it turns out to just be an email that I receive with actual insurers to who I then have to apply to. Disgraceful

Scammers! Don't pay the £ 49.

Don't pay the £ 49 to this company! Because you don't get any insurance for that money. In exchange for that amount you receive some recommendations with insurance companies, but they can be easily found by a simple google search. This company is a scam, it implies that for the amount of £ 49 you receive short-term insurance, but it is not so.

Avoid using these at all costs. The website is set and laid out as if you're going to be getting temp insurance for a vehicle. HOWEVER it is far from that and in writing in the wrong places it does state they charge you simply for access to a database of insurers. Something anyone can do for free on another comparison website!!

Disgraceful scammers

Disgraceful scammers! You pay £49 and receive no insurance, just insurance company names that are already on the same google search page.
Their excuse is that they tell you in the T's & C's. that they don't provide insurance personally. Well neither does an insurance broker.
Avoid these nasty bottom feeders at all cost.

AVOID

AVOID! Very misleading website, - I paid £49 under the impression that I was getting car insurance. When no confirmation received I checked a bit closer, and found all the bad reviews. After looking at the website closer, realised that they are not insurers or brokers, but just selling on a list of insurance brokers.

I emailed to request a refund but unfortunately, when looking closer it does state that they are not insurers and they also have clauses in their policy which exempts them from responsibility.

I feel it is definitely a website designed to mislead, and walks a fine line on what is legal operating, - maybe one for trading standards.

Could not get a refund!

If I could give zero stars I would

If I could give zero stars I would, absolute scam. How do they get away with it. I have contacted my bank to do a charge back as they have not provided a service. They just send a list of insurance companies and charge you £49.95.I was taking out insurance for my 17 year old son but all the insurance companies listed were for over 18's. Absolute fraud!
