Hello, Thank you for your review. I'm sorry that this isn't something that can be amended. If you need to start the policy from a different date, the incorrect policy would need to be cancelled and a new one put in place with the correct date. If you need help with this, please call us on 0333 321 9801 so we can assist you. ~Theo, Social Media Team

The site is heavily computer based. There is an app which you need to access the policy details. However, I could not get the app to register the PIN needed for sign on. Numerous exchanges with the IT team did not resolve the problem The work around is to register afresh every time I need to view the poilicy details.

Sadly HD had the wrong house number on my documents should have been 3 but sent to 4. I rang to explain the mistake and had a rather abrupt women told me I needed to pay £20 which I refused then it went to £1.50 Being a little hard of hearing and having great trouble understanding her poor english I gave up with the call, I was not rude nor did I use bad language.A day or two later I received a letter saying I was no longer insured as you can imagine I was very upset.That day I spoke to a very nice gent who sorted this sorry state out very easily and proffessionaly. 5* would have been given without this problem.

So far I quite like it however I had once incident of hades breaking which was not my fault and was the safest option at the time and that took me down 12% after being 100% for every other journey

Hi, Thanks for your review, we’re sorry to hear you’re having trouble with your driving score. We are aware that sometimes your score may be affected by external factors which is why we have the total score and past 2 weeks, and we would only cancel if your score dropped below 30, as a few one off hard breaking due to others would not affect the score that much. If you’d like to discuss your score in more detail, please give our YouDrive team a call on 0333 321 9801. Thanks, Nicole, Social Media Team
