“£75 to cancel a policy 3 weeks old! Pays to read the terms and conditions. The Policy document states £25 for the Insurance Company. BUT the T+C state there is an additional £50 for the broker 'Devitt!' First and last time I use them..... With regard to your reply 'As we are a broker there is a cost to acquiring and setting up polices which is why we have to charge a cancellation fee and these are industry standard....' Sorry but £75 IS NOT industry standard!”

“Anyone insuring with this Company needs their brain checking. Sold my bike & like a compliant sucker, told Devitt. They are trying to charge me £55 just to cancel when the policy was only double that. If you are thinking of using Devitt - DON'T! They are a bunch of cowboys!!”

“Be aware that Devitt as a broker can and will charge "industry standard" cancellation fees. In my case the Ombudsman has advised that it is acceptable for them to charge £50 to cancel a £73 policy into which I had already paid £53. The total charge currently being demanded is £79 ...more than the cost of the original policy. Legally they can do this it seems, so perhaps it would be wiser to go direct to your insurer of choice and cut out the middle man”

“Watch out for the small print!!! I cancelled a policy that was 3 months old that I had paid up front for. I sold the bike and cancelled the policy (will you would as its the law). And they charged me an extra £25 to cancel the policy. No refund of the 9 months left just an extra £25 to pay. Do not go anywhere near this company.”

“Absolutely appalling service! They have never removed an incident in my file that I was never involved, they never paid a penny and apparently is taking them ages to remove! Which cause that I have to pay 10 times more for a new policy with a new insurance!! I have been talking with everyone in the company for hours and we do not get anywhere. Incredible useless customer service, underwriter and whoever was involve in my case!”

“This will blow your head off - I’m an existing customer with devitt for several years & have had a good claim free history & I’m a sad 58 yrs old! My renewal came up & suprise suprise I get a letter saying they can’t get me cover so basically get lost! Following me wasting much time devitt basically confirm they were wrong & they quote me a whopping £700 when my last yrs of history has been £365-430, are they serious! apparently yes. So again I get on the web & see a nice quote from BMW motoraad for £379, lovelee jublee, then I see the contact number is devitt!! So I ring em & ask why I can secure a quote £320 less then they can & they are a broker & by the way my cheaper quote is through them from another comparison site. The lovely lady said apparently they can’t cross sell or something that I didn’t understand. Anyway I’ve paid em & it’s sorted, how weird is that??!! Still don’t get it, but £320 in my bin is more then welcome. Oh Devitt sort yourself out & do your job, simples...........”

“I was with A Quote insurance who were really good however they advised that all their customers were moving over to Devitt. I got a letter from Devitt advising of this and that nothing had changed however after calling them for something else I found out my excess had gone from £200 with A Quote to £700 with Devitt! There was no reason or explanation for this very sneaky and underhand alteration and it was not very open and honest! Luckily I found out before I need to make a claim so I am I the process of changing insurers. Also just prior to this I went on line for some quotes, Devitt were charging me £700+ for an insurance policy where others were charging £200! I queried this and why they were charging me £700+ when others were charging £200 for the same benefits etc (in fact a lot less excess) and they couldn't give me an answer other than to say they could do a better deal and reduce it from £700+ to £500. This is still more than double the other insurance quotes and lets be frank if they could do it for £500 in the first place why were they quoting me £700+ as a supposedly valuable existing customer!”
