I went for a quote directly through their website but couldn't seem to opt out of getting a professionally installed blackbox. I rang the hotline but the person I spoke to couldn't opt me out without running a new quote, which he said would be more expensive due to fluctuations in the market. I asked if he could give me my current quote minus ?35 for self-installing the box but he said there was nothing he could do. I went to confused.com to get myself a new quote. This turned out to be cheaper.

The service originally was excellent. However, after renewing my car insurance I got an additional email saying that I had not renewed and that I had a week to pay ?0.00. This was very confusing and made me concerned that my car insurance had not gone through, despite the money leaving my account. When I rang to check this the gentleman on the phone was very helpful and sorted it straight away.

When you try to contact by mail you generally don't get any response whatsover. Calling is more effective though.

1. They initially sent me an email detailing that the renewal premium would be automatically collected from my bank. 2. I then received an email detailing that they had not been able to do this and I had to call them to pay the premium, which I did on the same day. 3. I later received a further email detailing that I had not paid and I had to call them again. When I call them they advised that the email had been sent in error. On reflection, 3 stars is over-generous!
