Thank you for reviewing my policy in person instead of automatically renewing it. You saved me some money. Maybe you should do that and keep your loyal customers.

I had a fantastic experience with Hastings Direct following my motorcycle accident. From the very beginning, their service was outstanding. Immediately after the accident, they arranged for my motorcycle to be recovered from the accident scene and taken to their storage facility. As I was injured and had to be admitted to hospital, this was an enormous help and removed a lot of stress at a very difficult time. The recovery was included as part of my insurance, and I was very grateful for how efficiently everything was handled. They managed my claim very quickly, and within just a few weeks they had settled my helmet claim and completed the entire process. One thing that really impressed me was their honesty and fairness. I had not included commuting on my motorcycle insurance, but instead of cancelling my policy or rejecting my claim, they contacted me, explained the situation, and gave me the opportunity to pay the additional premium to add commuting cover. Once this was done, they processed my claim without any issues. I really appreciated how reasonable and helpful they were. Another thing that stood out was their excellent customer service. They even contacted me to ask whether I wanted any of my personal belongings back from the motorcycle. I asked for my chain lock, disc lock, and a few other personal items, and they delivered everything back to me the very next day, completely free of charge. That level of care and attention really exceeded my expectations. They also paid me a market value for my motorcycle that was better than I had expected, and the payment arrived in my bank account promptly. Throughout the entire process, everyone I dealt with was professional, friendly, and supportive. Based on my experience, I would happily recommend Hastings Direct to anyone looking for motorcycle insurance. They made what could have been a very stressful experience straightforward and reassuring. Thank you to the entire Hastings Direct team for your outstanding service.

I was recommended by a few friends and members of my VTR group to try Hastings Direct. I used the online service got a fair quote but when I went to pay for it later the system didn't recognise me (also the system was down for ages) ie my first name, surname and postcode! I went trough it all again, but I ended up paying extra for breakdown cover!! My first quote was £194 including breakdown cover? But I had to pay £282.68 for the last quote with breakdown cover. To be honest, I now think I should have gone elsewhere as it cost me £88.68 more all because of your system.

Hello Jonathan, Thank you for your review. I'm very sorry to see that this wasn't a straightforward process and that it resulted in an increase in price. I can appreciate the frustration this would have caused. Thank you for choosing to insure with us despite the difficulty and the increase in price. I hope that your time with us improves as the policy progresses and that we can be more competitive once the renewal arrives. Please contact us if you need any help during the year. ~Theo, Social Media Team

Used Hastings now for 2 years insuring my bike, just insured a second one with them but not on multi cover as one is up for renewal within weeks, I will make the call and add it to my more recent addition , or use a comparison site if need be, they are helpful at Hastings though and seem pretty fair and relatively competative.

Received a quote from my current car insurance policy provider. It had gone up slighly, so used MoneySpuermarket to get some alternative quotes. Hastings was the best price and almost 20% cheaper than the quote I'd received from my current provider - an absolute no brainer to switch across. Very simple process and money saved. Everything is in the app so should be straight forward to monitor and update as required. Thanks Hastings.

My renewal cost on my previous car insurance had increased steeply so I looked for an alternative. Using comparison websites I looked for an alternative company with the best price and the best benefits. A few companies had similar prices to Hastings but Hastings surpassed them by covering everything I needed. The process was simple and straightforward and I’m very pleased with the service.
