“If I could put -5 stars, I would do so. Wisedriving tricks you to buy their insurance saying that they provide it cheaper than other providers. It might be true for the first year, then it will increase and you will end up paying more than paying directly to an insurance broker. On top of it, when you want to cancel their policy, they ask you to pay ~£200 for cancelling (while on their website, they only state £75 for cancelling fee- which is already high enough). They then try to menace you with credit/debt control and all kind of things to make you pay because they know you don't want your credit score to be affected. I won't let it go easily like this, Wisedriving. If anyone else is also in the same situation as us, please also contact legal service to get them investigated. Hopefully, it will stop their bad practice and help other people to do not fall into their trick.”

Hello Le Dang, We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with your policy. We work with a panel of insurers to find the most competitive quote available. Insurers change their rates constantly and we have no control over that. We do however, provide your renewal quote in advance of the renewal date to allow you time to shop around and make a decision. You can stop the renewal, free of charge. There is a cancellation fee of £75, if you cancel mid-term. You are also charged for the time you have been on cover and the cost of the telematics box is non-refundable. We will calculate how much money you have paid us and if this does not cover the above costs, there will be an outstanding balance to pay. We will also provide you with a breakdown of costs. We allow an amount of time for you to pay the outstanding balance but, this is not an indefinate amount of time and we do chase for debt. Many thanks, Holly

“Stay away from this company. It is the worst ever insurance company. Everyday i receive emails from saying that they will cancel my insurance insurance because the black box has been removed from the windscreen when in fact its not!. The box is faulty and keeps falling off from the windscreen. When i tried to call them I have to wait at least 20-30 mins to get to someone and then they told me I need to pay an extra charge for a replacement box when in fact its their fault! Then i keep getting emails saying that my box battery is low and I need to charge it but they never supplied a charging cable in the first place! They expect you to spend money by buying a charging cable. When you charge the box after 1 month you get same issue, the battery went low again. It is just a constant pain and very frustrating. I can't wait for my insurance to end so that I leave this company. I STRONGLY ADVISE EVERYONE TO STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!! I will make a formal complaint to the relevant authority. They look like a bogus company which needs to be reported”

Hi Maryan We are sorry to hear you are unhappy with your policy. To explain, your telematics box will monitor your driving behaviours (speed, acceleration, braking and time of day). You are scored on how well you drive and you can be either given a refund or an additional premium based on how well you drive. This is disclosed to all our customers prior to them accepting a quote with us. When you cancel your policy, we will calculate how much money you have paid to us, then deduct the cancellaion fee and the cost for the time you have been insured. Please also note the cost for the telematics box is non-refundable. Any direct debit payments made are taken into account. Dependent on what you have paid us versus the cost of insurance and fees, you may be either due a refund or owe us money. Upon cancellation, your credit agreement is also cancelled. Many thanks, Holly

“Charged me £200 to change my vehicle because somehow their black boxes don't work on multiple cars, so either they use the worst black boxes known to man or just scam everyone they can out of hundreds of quid”

Hi David We are sorry to hear you are unhappy. Our telematics devices are aligned to the specific vehicle on cover, therefore, when you change said vehicle, a new device needs to be installed. We do inform our customers about this and the charge applicable, at point of sale and, prior to completing a change of vehicle. Please also be advised, the cost of a new device is £150. Any other charge applied, comes from your insurer, who determine whether your insurance will cost more or less on the new vehicle. Many thanks, Holly

“**AVOID!!** Don’t bother with this insurance company, more hassle than it’s worth! No one knows what they are doing when they are on the phone to you, unless you will give them more money to solve a problem that’s been going on for months! (I refuse to give them any more money!) I was told my monthly payments will be going up as my driving score had dropped all while having emails saying if my black box isn’t connected by a certain date they will cancel the insurance, I have sent numerous photos of me connecting the box but nothing seems to work, I just get passed the same info again and again and no actual help given! So which is it? Is it working or not? Can’t wait for the policy to be up so I can move to a more professional company!”
