One Call Insurance

Just a warning, do not take out a policy with this company.
You cannot get in touch with them.
They want to do an auto renewal.
It can't be stopped.
Having to resort to going to bank to put a block or changing my card details.

The phone number to opt out of auto renewals is: 01302 565532 OR you can change your preference in the My Policies section of the website portal. I think this option closes once renewal documents are sent out.

Tbf, I've been with them a number of years for my bike insurance, and they were excellent when I had a no fault claim a few years back.
It is difficult to get hold of a 'real person' though for anything other than claims and renewals.

It's like everything else, you have to repeatedly keep shopping about to get the best price. I've just changed my E89 for a G29 (it's about double what I paid for the E89, but that was only £130 for the year). So, I shopped about and the company that came top I was already with, so, I gave them a quick call and said that I was changing the car and they took the details and came back with a quote £100 more than what was quoted on the web :rofl: So, I said I can get a better price than that... they said, who with?.... yourselves! They checked agin and mysteriously the quote came down to what I saw online :headbang:

Yes bike insurance. Managed to find number. Long wait for anyone to answer.
Just annoyed they wanted to auto renew but fully comp. as well.
This auto renew should stop or at least give the option not to accept.
They talk as though they you doing you a favour.
I couldn't get their site to work other than downloading docs.

I accepted auto renew on Zed insurance at 302, which i never do.
Later found could have got it for 225 elsewhere..

Next will be Blackcircle tyres, on my 7th email exchange trying to return tyres. :headbang:

Just cancelled my bike insurrance with Bennetts yesterday as they doubled the price year on year. Just had to log on and untick the "auto-renew box", took me 2 minutes,. Signing up for a new insurrance was like a dozen clicks and credit card information once I left the comparison website I had used. It rarely goes that smooth but it feels great when it does :driving:
