I had a very disappointing experience with Quote Detective.

After I took out my van insurance and paid £1,580, they made a mistake with the van’s registration number on their side. Instead of correcting their error and continuing the policy, they then refused to insure the van.

I also paid an additional £75 to change my address, yet the situation was never resolved. To make matters worse, they later cancelled the policy after the 15-day period and charged me a cancellation fee, even though the issue was caused by their own mistake.

In the end, I was only refunded £1,200, meaning I lost a significant amount of money despite not receiving the service I paid for.

The whole experience felt extremely unfair and the way the situation was handled was very disappointing and unprofessional.

I would strongly advise others to be cautious before using this company.

Accused of Providing False Information While Comparing Quotes

Very disappointing experience with Quote Detective.

My husband and I were simply comparing van insurance quotes and, as advised by other insurance companies, we tried quotes using both the address currently on his driving licence and the new address we recently moved to. This is normal when checking how premiums change after moving.

Today I received a call from a representative who immediately started accusing me of providing false information, including date of birth and address. This was completely incorrect and the tone of the conversation was very unprofessional. Instead of asking questions or clarifying the situation, she spoke in a way that felt accusatory and disrespectful.

We never provided false details. We were simply comparing quotes like any customer would do when searching for the best insurance price.

Customer service should focus on helping and clarifying, not accusing customers without understanding the situation first. This experience left a very negative impression and I expected much better professionalism.

I would strongly suggest improving how your representatives communicate with potential customers.

I regret taking out this policy

I regret taking out this policy. The sales process made it sound straightforward and flexible, but once signed up, the reality was very different.

Trying to cancel has been frustrating and stressful. The limitations and conditions were not made clear upfront, and I feel trapped in something I would not have agreed to if everything had been properly explained.

This has been a very disappointing experience, and I encourage anyone considering this provider to read the fine print carefully before committi

Good Afternoon Mr Khan, thank you for your feedback.

I would love to have the opportunity to investigate what has happened as we would never want any of our customers to feel this way. I have sent a further information request as I cannot find a policy for you from your name.

Our full terms are business are in our welcome pack, also available on our website and read out on the sales call, to which you can come back with questions.

Please could you email 'contact@quotedetective.com' with your full name, date of birth, first line of address and postcode please, and we will look into further.

Thank you,
Charlotte
