“Do not go with this company. It is a rip off. Go somewhere else and i guaranteed it will be cheaper and have more miles. I ran out of miles and they want £235 for 1000 miles. Most company's charge £50. I am already paying over £200 a month. Asked to cancel and they want rest of the money for the policy so about £1000. Absolutely shocking. Total rip off”

“I found this company on go compare, they offered the cheapest quote. I filled out the details online then I called them. They were asking me loads of questions that I had already answered, and some very irrelevant questions like, "where do you work?" They had me on hold for 15 minutes, terrible. I decided to put down the phone and look elsewhere.”

“Do not deal with this company. I have just cancelled my insurance with them after just 3 weeks. Firstly you cant get through to speak to them, no email or any direct easy contact. 2nd I sent all my documents as asked then received a text message saying they were cancelling my insurance unless I uploaded more information - that's it no telling me what I needed to upload and then when I called the customer service lady put the phone down on me! Really do not bother unless you are happy with poor communication and bad service.”

“Con men. Cancelled a policy 1 month in without notice. Was told policy would be cancelled within 2 days by email on a Saturday morning. Their offices not open it would be too late to do anything. Claimed it was cancelled because hadn’t provided a marriage certificate which they claimed they requested but had no email or texts etc requesting this, plus what the hell do they need that for. Already had all necessary proof of address etc. Basically came to the point where they said there was nothing could be done except open a new policy and would loose almost the entire deposit after fees, meaning I paid £400 for 1 months insurance. Totally convinced that this was entirely deliberate in order to scam the deposit from us. Not taking this lying down and will be pursuing through all means possible. Total con. Furious”

“Easily the worst customer service EVER, got everything wrong and even after my cover expired they tried claiming money from my account. Gave me one price then added things I didn't want. NEVER EVER AGAIN EVER!”

“Total rip off. Was insured for 3 weeks and cancelled. I paid £400 deposit. The underwriters only charged £118 for the period on cover and first insurance took the rest in fees/charges. And are now chasing me for another £150 threatening with court action. Avoid at all costs. Terrible company”

“Avoid at all cost. First was the cheapest insurer on a comparison website. Had to phone prior to starting policy, that should’ve told me then that this wasn’t right (never had to do this in the many years I’ve used the comparison website). The female on the phone tried every tactic to sell me legal cover. When she finally realised I wasn’t going to take it, she then told me my excess would be different than that quoted. I told her that wasn’t what I was quoted for. The females mode suddenly changed from terrible to absolutely shocking. She stated that “I take you don’t want the insurance then”. Can’t believe we still manage to get this customer service in this day and age. You have been warned.”

“Everything was fine to begin with, until 1 week into the insurance they send me a letter saying i owe an extra £500 to my premiums because i gave the wrong pass date on my licence. Even though i phoned them up to tell them to listen to the conversation with the sales rep and that he purposely put the wrong details to get money out of me. Then when they never phoned me back about it i cancelled my insurance before the 14 cooling period and they then again try and take extra money off me until i called out the guy on the phone for lieing. Shocking! stay away.”

“Got insurance from them one month back, although there was only one claim on my last policy with last insurer and that was settled with them, first insurance try to get more money saying that your claim is not been settled and you have to pay extra 160.00 for policy amendment. Really dont want to go with them next year.”

“Got the quote from Gocompare for 1008.79 for FIRST FOR INSURANCE. When called the company next day they asked for £1640. Totally rip off. Spoke to the manager and without any help. Please do not waste your time with these cheaters and liars. They will show less price on gocompare and then when you call them the price will go sky high. I will now speak to gocompare regarding this. They should allow such a company on their website. Good luck people”

“I selected them as the best price from a Compare site. Then they phoned me and want to spend 30 going over all my details in the Compare site. What a waste of time and the caller couldn't care less when I said I wouldn't have the insurance.”
