I am not comfortable with the you drive policy. It seems that this policy is more about insuring the driver and not the car. I will fully be expecting to receive major reductions in my next years premium due to having to disclose my driving data and be judged everytime I drive my vehicle which I have always done with full compliance with all traffic laws. The reason I opted for this policy was to give my son a chance, a provisional licence holder the chance to drive. With him being a provisional licence holder and learning to drive he will obviously make mistakes in the way he brakes and accelerates for example. This will no doubt increase the average score and therefore already has us started on uphill battle to get the full benefit from this policy. We will review this as we go and if this isn’t the right policy for us then we will cancel the policy.

Hi Christopher,  Thanks for your review, we’re sorry you’re unhappy with the terms of the YouDrive policy.  A YouDrive policy is slightly different to a standard car insurance product, and we appreciate that it’s not for everyone. We do ask that you read the terms before you buy the policy as it is clear what kind of policy tis is and what is required from the customer. If you’d like to check out our other insurance options, head to our website or give us a call on 0333 321 9801. ~Theo, Social Media Team

I took out car insurance for my first car and the policy was easy to buy and very good for value for money. My black box came quickly and the app is great to see how i am driving and helps me to be safe on the road. So far i would i reccomend Hastings direct for car insurance for a first time driver.

Neglects to tell you about extra charges and then say “it’s stated in your policy “ but you don’t get your policy until you make a payment!! Maybe you should be fully transparent with people when you give a quote

Hello Ellis, We’re sorry you’re unhappy about our fees. Like most other insurers, our fees cover some of our business costs, like staffing our contact centres, managing your policy, and maintaining and developing our systems. We try to keep our fees in line with other insurers. We also make these fees as clear as possible in any documents and on our website, as well as explaining that they’re non-refundable. This can be found before the policy is purchased. Please visit https://www.hastingsdirect.com/about-us/our-fees for more information. ~Theo, Social Media Team

If I could rate no stars I would. Made a black box policy very ambiguous online, when I wanted to cancel it (prior to it starting) was made incredibly difficult - no one answers the phone and then spent 3 hours on a live chat just to request to cancel since it takes advisors 40 minutes to respond to each message. Also told they wouldn’t cancel and start processing the refund until the day of the start of the policy??? Makes no sense. Absolute waste of time.

After checking out the policy details I found that Hastings covered more than most as standard, very competitively priced and such an easy process from start to finish, I would highly recommend more people check them out.
