Hedgehog to the rescue

After many problems with online insurance companies who provided quotes to comparison sites but failed to follow up I found Hedgehog who seemed to want my business at a sensible price (I'm 81 with no claims since I started driving in 1961).
Hope all goes well.

This was a good experience from the…

This was a good experience from the beginning. The insurance quote for my elderly car- and equally elderly driver- was fair and realistic. Any questions I had were answered almost immediately by personal email. That was really helpful. Two people stand out- Emily and Rory . Both were polite and helpful as well as happy to explain any questions or worries. I have to stop driving for a while and this was dealt with accurately and helpfully. A refund was made almost immediately with no questions or details asked for. I will be re insuring with Hedgehog as soon as I am able. I have already passed on details to friends looking for a more reasonable personal service

Reassurance!

I was able to quickly chat with a REAL PERSON, who sorted my problem speedily and erased all fears I had of being entangled in one of those on-line 'paper' chase situations. Hedgehog's reputation is enhanced in my eyes due to this.

Any complaints don’t matter to them

Any complaints don’t matter to them. When I bought my car insurance because of the time of purchase my car that was 1 year difference, they increased £100 pounds on my bill. I asked from other insurers and they said that not a good reason to increase. I don’t want to renew with them so when I cancelled the renewal, instead of covering for one full year they deducted 2days, which left my car uninsured.however according to the law my car have to be insured for 1 full year . That the rip off and I hope trading standards do something about them.
