Poor communication and very odd systems which mean you are treated differently as a car insurance customer compared to home insurance customer.

I recently received an excellent quote from Hastings You Drive and was thoroughly impressed with the experience. Their mobile app is incredibly user-friendly, making the entire process of taking out a policy seamless and hassle-free. I would happily recommend Hastings You Drive to friends and family—top-notch service all around!

Hi Christopher,  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.  ~Theo, Social Media Team

I wasn't told at point of purchase that the 'black box' supplied with the insurance is a small device which sticks on the windscreen and communicates with the Hastings app on my phone. When I was driving and my friend was in the passenger seat, he was switching songs on my phone. However this registered on the device and as a result my score was low due to 'phone useage'. This method of tracking phone usage will only work if someone is only ever driving on their own, if they have passengers who may touch the phone on behalf of the driver, this is not a true representation of the driving ability.

What an absolute disgrace of a company. Paid my insurance in full and then I received an email to inform me they may need to cancel my insurance as I had not registered the driving box. This has not been received as they do not used tracked services for delivery and rely on Royal Mail during the festive period. Attempted to call them during breaks as a key worker and the queues were horrendous been told this morning that this i quite normal and there was other methods I could have used to contact. My insurance was cancelled within 24 hours of receiving the email. BEWARE OF THIS COMAPNIES PARACTICES ABSOLUTE COWBOYS
