Good for insuarnce but terrible for actually letting you know about cancelation fee for when PASSING YOUR TEST. Passing your test shlukd feel like a reward but instead it felt like a punishment for it. A very unexplained £40 fee for canceling iw reidiclous and to pay premmiums aswell is ridiclous. Terrible woukdnt recommend.

DO NOT BUY LEARNER INS. IF YOU PLAN PASSING YOUR TEST QUICKLY
I am annoyed I have to even give this company 1 star!
Do not buy learner insurance from this company if you had any intention of passing your test quickly.
I have been charged in total £140.25 for learner driver insurance from 23rd March to 18th April, a total of 26 days!!!!!

Disappointed
£120 for 24 weeks cover, full comprehensive, which I thought was excellent, sadly my son's car fell foul of requiring expensive repairs, so the car was sold on to a garage. Cover was just over 17 days - outside of the 14 day cooling off period. Today, I was advised that "sadly" you are due no refund as the policy you purchased does not offer a refund. No £40 cancellation fee just, no refund. Now, don't get me wrong this is my fault for not reading the small print in more detail, BUT come on Collingwood £120 for 17 days. Final thoughts to those who read this review. Try somewhere else first. On the upside, the two gentleman I spoke with (Callum and Scott) were essentially helpful.

Absolutely shocking experience
Absolutely shocking experience with Collingwood Insurance Services UK Ltd.
I paid £473 in full (£256 monthly payments and the rest as a deposit) for a policy that was supposed to start on 15/04 Everything went smoothly during the application, and they had all my details available to check at the time , but clearly, they chose not to.
The next morning, I found out my insurance was not even active. When I tried to log in, my account had been blocked without any explanation.
After calling them to find out what’s the problem I was told my policy had been cancelled due to “incorrect information” about something that had already expired a year ago. Instead of handling this fairly or even giving me a chance to clarify, they cancelled everything and kept the full £473 just imagine 473£ without me ever using the insurance, not even for a single moment.
This is not just bad service — it feels like they are taking advantage of customers and assuming people won’t understand or challenge what’s happening, as if we are living in the stone age and have no awareness of our rights.
I have been driving for 15 years and have never experienced anything like this. Even when there is an issue, other insurers give you time to resolve it. Here, I was blocked out of my account and denied any fair process.
Keeping someone’s full payment without providing any service is completely unacceptable.
I strongly warn others: stay away from this company unless you want to risk losing your money without receiving any insurance in return.

HIDDEN COSTS - DO NOT USE!
HIDDEN COSTS - BEWARE, DO NOT USE!
They insure learner drivers, but do not insure once passed and if they pass within 12 months, which most young drives do, you have to cancel the policy and pay a further premium (ours was a further £40, but others may differ), and in addition to that they threaten to report you to debt collection agencies - fuming is an understatement - I will be reporting them to the FCA too.
They hide behind the fact their customer journey is transparent, but it really isn't - Absolutely shocking company with zero professional integrity and preying on new young drivers.

Collingwood learner driver insurance (Con)
Collingwood learner insurance Like so many I’ve been caught!!!
Collingwood learner driver insurance. Took out for our son Max, passed in the 12th month and got a message that they couldn’t renew. Called to tell them he had passed and wanted to see if they did normal insurance for a full license, said to the guy on the phone not to bother with the 20days refund only to be told ,no you owe us £40 to cancel the policy. Such a total joke, my fault for not reading the small print, such a con company hiding behind “ it’s written in the small print”. Anyway I have Max’s brother Jack who I need learners insurance now, will we use Collingwood, don’t think so, or their other companies like”My First” insurance , avoid . So if they were upfront they may have continued to have Max’s custom and his brothers, but instead they will no doubt charge my card to get their dirty £40 quid earned by ill means, just avoid, we don’t need companies like this anymore in this country, don’t use them and hopefully they will disappear. Like to add that I can’t remember Compare the Market listing on their extra charges that Collingwood make these that they must know!

This insurance provider is great UNTIL…
This insurance provider is great UNTIL the policyholder passes their driving test - and they then hit you with a ridiculous cancellation fee. If you’re expecting to pass your driving test within the term of the policy, THEN LOOK ELSEWHERE. DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE.
(CIS - don’t bother yourselves to reply to this with some feeble justification regarding terms and conditions. The existence of a legally binding contract is no justification for unreasonable commercial behaviour)

Hi Catalin,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and we’re sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the service we provided.
The information provided on the website does advise that the No Claims Bonus must be in your name, and must be from a policy which ended within the last 12 months- we're sorry if you missed this important information when purchasing your policy.
If you would like to discuss this further, please don't hesitate to contact us.
