Unreasonable policy rules. Not a good first impression. Regretting my choice.

Hello Lynette, Thanks for your review, we’re sorry you’re unhappy with the terms of your YouDrive policy.  A YouDrive policy is slightly different to a standard car insurance product, and we appreciate that it’s not for everyone. We do ask that you read the terms before you buy the policy. If you’d like to check out our other insurance options, head to our website or give us a call on 0333 321 9801. ~Theo, Social Media Team

Customer service is appalling. 30 minutes on the phone to a non UK call centre for a simple request to send me a hard copy of the Policy Booklet, missing from my posted documents . The operator didn’t have a clue what I was asking for. I asked to speak to her manager… not available, call back!!!?

Hello Timothy, I'm very sorry to see that the renewal wasn't competitive on this occasion. Please note, your policy details are not the only factors considered. Industry trends, rise in claim costs, how many accidents the make and model of your car are involved in throughout the year etc can all have an impact. Customers can help the price by having a clean driving history, however, an industry that runs on a worse case scenario determines that external factors beyond your control may impact the price. Hastings direct as a broker has no contact with the renewal until the customer contacts them to discuss it. This is why we ask you to contact us if you are unhappy with the price the underwriter has provided so it can discussed and we can see if the price can be improved. Without the customer's authority, we cannot amend the policy or apply any of the tools we use to hopefully get a better price. ~Theo, Social Media Team
