“After having a non fault accident Hastings I feel were slow to act and the other person’s insurance company were extremely efficient. Plus I was also charged after my insurance auto renewed and when phoning to question got hung up on twice. Their customer service is sub standard.”

“YOUDRIVE CUSTOMERS, WORD OF WARNING. ONCE YOU PAIR THE TAG, TO YOUR MOBILE PHONE, DO NOT ALLOW ANY PASSENGERS TO PICK UP THE MOBILE PHONE IT IS PAIRED TO FOR ANY REASON WHILE DRIVING. Although Hastings provided the best quote with using a tag system, a process I fully support, we made the mistake of not reading all the terms and conditions before our excited 19 year old daughter headed off on her first solo drive. Her friend unfortunately picked up our daughter's mobile phone to make changes to the music they were listening to in her car, quite a few times. Big mistake, the system obviously thought that the driver was using the mobile phone and marked our daughter's score, extremely low from day 1. Now we keep getting what I think are quite abrupt emails and texts from Hastings, advising that her score is below target and that the insurance will be cancelled if the score doesn't improve!! It's a massive pity that despite calling Hastings customer service to explain this unfortunate and genuine error, they will not give our daughter a second (and even final) chance to reset the tag to start scoring her driving correctly!”
Hello, thank you for sharing your experience. This is correct. The app isn't able to differentiate between passengers and as a result will presume that the phone is being used while if it belongs to the driver. I'm very sorry if you weren't aware of this and I hope that she is able to find suitable cover for her vehicle soon. ~Theo
Hello, I'm sorry to read about the cancellation and I appreciate the frustration that this would have caused. I can also see that you have raised a complaint concerning this. I hope you get a satisfactory resolution to this and you are able to find suitable cover for your vehicle soon. ~Theo
Hello Kevin, looking at your policy I can see that the documents are set to be sent via your chosen delivery method which is email. They wouldn't be posted as a result. If you would like a copy sent in the post, you can request this from our Customer Service Department by calling 0333 321 9801. ~Theo
