Just received a letter saying my insurance is being canceled through no actual fault of my own. Emails went into my spam box. So now I am 1000 that I haven't got down if they do cancel my policy.

Good Morning, Could you please contact us ASAP as we would not have cancelled your insurance without trying to contact you on the email address(es) and phone number(s) held on your account. As I'm not sure which product you are referring to please visit www.collingwood.co.uk/contact-us

ZERO STARS, My Grandaughter insured with this co for 1,700 on passing her test, 3 months ago, my Grandson passed his test 3 days ago and was quoted 4,120, they both live in the same area, same cars, how can they justify a difference of 22,420 pounds. What a rip off.

Morning Gill, I'd like to thank you for getting a quote to stay with us it's just unfortunate that on this occasion we were unable to give you a competitive quote. There are many variables in insurance underwriting and it is very likely the underwriting criteria changed within the 3 months. Unfortunately, as a broker, this is beyond our control. Hopefully, you managed to get a similar price elsewhere.

Good until you have a claim. They will not accept indemnity and make excuses that you've not reported on time. Record all calls and make a note of names. AVOID at all costs

It's was rubbish as hell they cancelled my policy for no reason of mine only because I never sent my logbook and they basically robbed me as they only refunded me back £10,99

Hi Elijah, We do state that these documents may be required, however without specific details, we are unable to comment further as to your specific review. Generally speaking, we would have sent multiple reminder emails and tried to contact you to get the documents before cancellation. You are more than welcome to contact us to get a more detailed explanation. Thanks Collingwood

Used this company for my learners insurance, had no issues! Recommend using them! Once I passed my test I insured my car with wise drive, worst decision ever!! Rang Collins's wood after being messed about with wise drive, there customer service skills are excellent and couldn't be anymore helpful! The women on the phone was an overall lovely person, after congratulating me with passing! 100% recommend this company!!!

Very good cheap insurance for a learner driver. This company makes it easier for young drivers to get on the road. Good customer service. when i passed i cancelled no problems was congratulated and recieved a part month refund. Have recommended to a few people.

A brilliant company for learners to get insurance and peace of mind at a resonable price. Very easy to set up and if you pass your test half way through a month they refund you your remaking months money back!!! It's brilliant- I've used collingwood for both my sons learners insurance and couldn't fault them at all.

This was a learner driver policy taken out in May15- He passed his test in Nov15 and immediately his car insurance ceased. So cover for that time did not gain any time towards 1 years NCB.. This was not made clear- a new young driver policy was quoted at £5,300 PA- absolutely ridiculous price. So we had to start again from Nov15 with a new plan, even the Collingwood plan wasn't continuous. Disappointed to say the least.

Were happy to take money but when I wanted to cancel they sent a very officious letter which some might have felt intimidating. Utter bell-ends. Look elsewhere.
