Quite a poor experience. Called to make a change to a new policy that hadn’t started yet and was quoted a 25% premium increase. Went elsewhere

Hello Barry, Thank you for your review. I'm very sorry to see that we were unable to offer you a competitive price for this change and I hope that you have since been able to get a better price for your insurance. We regret that this led to the end of your time with us and I hope we can be more competitive for you in the future. ~Theo, Social Media Team

Very easy process to arrange the cover required. You can compare all at once what is included . Also at a very good price

I have recently insured my motorcycle and the help I received was excellent. The policy I have is what I wanted and no claims was checked and and carried over while I was on the phone.

This company abruptly cancelled my active policy without valid justification within two days of activation .They accept your premium payments willingly but actively seek excuses to avoid fulfilling. This feels like a deliberate attempt to collect money without providing the agreed-upon coverage.

Hi Shagufta, We’re really sorry we couldn't offer you a quote. When we work out the price of our policies, we look at lots of policy details — and consider the risk that comes with this information. If the information on your policy changes, the level of risk can change too. Unfortunately, sometimes this means we can no longer cover you. If you have any questions, please call us on 0333 321 9801. Thanks, Nicole, Social Media team

When taken out car insurance with Hasting, It was a really simple process and great value for money, with the cover I have. I would strongly recommend.

Very annoying that the quote I saved for the vehicle I wanted. when I purchased the vehicle and went back to the quote, it refreshed and went up by 20%. This is the third vehicle we now have with you.

Hi, thanks for your review. We confirm on our website, and note on comparison sites, that our quotes are only valid until 11:59pm on the day they’re completed. Even if the quote looks the same when you go back to it, the price can change after that day due to live pricing updates. Thanks, Nicole, Social Media Team

In a world of overcomplicated and loaded questions around all types of insurance with ever-increasing prices the nearer it gets to your renewal date, Hastings seems to be a breath of fresh air with their honest and reasonably priced policies with no hidden catches. Thank you.

I have been with this company for years. I have usually been totally satisfied with them. I forgot to renew my car insurance the day after when I realised I contacted them and they said I had to be classed as a new customer which then cost me an additional £33.00 I didn’t have time to then shop around as I needed my car for an appointment. Very disappointed with them!!

I can appreciate the frustration this would have caused and I hope that we can be more competitive at the next renewal. I hope your time with us improves as this policy progresses. ~Theo, Social Media Team

I wanted cheaper car insurance. I used one of the comparison websites and chose Hastings. I filled in the online form and included my wife and my son as additional drivers. I filled in all details. Then I paid. But I had to cancel later when I realised that I was the only driver. The details about my wife and son had been ignored.

The application handler was great, patient, really well informed and willing to focus on the detail where necessary. I really appreciated the way she took the call, which was a long one, and it was that that made me chooser HD over a cheaper but less engaged provider
