Hastings Direct

Never ever use this company. Rip off merchants. My car has been scrapped but instead of a piddly £20 ish refund no....they charge me a £45 cancellation fee and I owe them to cancel! Team leader was a waste of space. Would have got more help from talking to my dog that him!! Registered a complaint but looking at these reviews don't expect much! Car drivers don't use the company. Then they may have to become more customer centric!

    You will have agreed to this when accepting their ts and cs when buying the policy.

    They do have a rep who gets alerted whenever they get mentioned here so expect him to pop in on a damage limitation visit soon.

    You will be able to escalate your complaint to the FOS for their adjudication if you are unhappy with their reply or they ignore you for 8 weeks.

    But if you did agree to their fees originally don't hold your breath this will have a happy ending
