Insurance policy was cancelled

Insurance policy was cancelled , no way to contact them to find out why as the only way seems to be an online portal which I can’t access as I don’t have a policy . Had been with them for many years and they did this after many years of auto renewals . Would not recommend at all .

Hi Robert

You can contact us via our live chat facility on our website. One of our agents would be able to run through the reason as to why your policy was cancelled. We can see that a cancellation notice was sent out via email, and a SMS followed that. As we had no response, the policy was then cancelled down.

Hi Nigel

We have looked into your query about your cancellation. The policy was taken out online in February 2026. Before purchasing the policy you agree to the terms of business, which lay out the basic cancellations costs. We can see that you have been in touch via our live chat facility where the agent offered to give you a breakdown of the cancellation figures, but had no reply back. If you would like us to run through those with you, please contact us again via the live chat facility.

Many thanks

Frustrating and Dissmisive.

Disappointing!!
I requested my document pack be sent through the post. After two months, I'm still waiting. Several phone calls later, all I get is welcome letters instead of my certificate etc. I was assured that three copies had been posted to me in response to my calls, and yet none materialised. It's odd that i can receive duplicate welcome letters, but no insurance certificate.
Blaming the postal service is no excuse, and the overreliance on the `Customer Portal` is limiting and seemingly impossible to access.

Hi Michael

We are sorry that you have not received your documents via post . We can see that a copy was initially posted on 20.05.2026.

Once the post is collected from the office, we have to rely on it getting delivered. We hope that you have received the documents that were posted out on 23.06.2026. You will also be able to access all your policy documents via the portal. If you need assistant with the portal, please don't hesitate to give us a call or contact us via live chat.

Process was so easy start to finish. The website was very clear and provided all the information I needed to allow me to make an informed decision. Obviously the price was a major factor but not the only factor. Good reputation clear pricing and choice were also major considerations. Instant access to my documents. Couldn’t be happier.

Shocking rip off

Shocking, found MD using a comparison website. Looking for 50cc scooter insurance, only option is bike. Changed details to full car all good. Received documents, I suddenly had full bike insurance. Contacted MD using their chat. Got put on hold for ages to talk to a person.
The person was totally unknowledgeable about bike insurance. Was requoted twice the price, so I cancelled. Got charged £60 admin fee. RIP OF COMPANY.

No and No to the reply.
If you READ the review, it explains. Further the agent did not really have a clue.
And again I changed the settings on the compare website to moped........
I had allready paid the price of the insurance, then received the paperwork, when I read this it stated full licence.
I would have been driving around uninsured and illegally. So don't talk rubbish, look at YOUR systems. Bye-bye.

Hi Pieter

Looking at the numerous quotes that you did online via the aggregator site, we can see that on each one you have confirmed that you had a full bike license. These quotes that were generated were based on that information. By amending that to the correct type of licence, it does change the risk on the policy. We have reviewed the chat, and the agent explained the reason for the increase in price clearly, which you accepted, gave you a breakdown of the additional cost, and an alternative to making the change. We are sorry that you feel that this did not met your expectations, and if you would like to contact us via our live chat facility we can run through this with you again.

Many thanks

Do not use!

After trying to proceed with the original quote, the payment was not processing, so I spoke with the chat, who advised me their system doesn’t like safari and to move to chrome. After doing this, and putting the web reference in, it did not find my details or any record of the quote. I did it all again and had the same issue. 2 soft searches, no policy and the most unhelpful chat service, who ignored me after I said I wanted to make a complaint. Stay well away. I have screenshots of the chat to compliment the above.

Hi Matt


That is certainly not the level of service we strive to achieve. As this has come through a third party site, we are unable to locate a quote or policy for you to investigate. If you could contact us via our live chat facility, we would be happy to investigate this further for you, and make sure that a complaint is logged on your behalf if it was not done previously.

Many thanks

Rip off merchants

Got insurance from this company changed bike after 2 weeks the company would not give me a quote for new b8ke then wanted the years balance to cancel then went into my bank account and took money without my permission claiming they had to pay for breakdown up front which was included in the policy stay away from this company charlatans.
They also use a company called premiere credit who does a hard credit search for the price off a 100 pounds which hits your credit report hard any other company uses a soft search for such a small amount so for 110pound premium they charged me 95 pound cancellation which was there fault not giving me a new quote and it has hit my credit score which was worth more than there premium even speaking to someone didn't help they took the money anyway so if I've paid for a breakdown service for a year where are the details no can't get that information either so save your money your credit score stay away from this company because if anything should happen while your insured don't expect any assistance seeing i paid for breakdown cover for the year give me the details to contact the company so I can transfer to my new bike

HI Mr. Graham

We are sorry that you feel we did not meet your expectations. We have looked at your policy that you had with us that started on 20.05.2026. You were looking to make the change on 17.06.2026, which was outside the cooling off period of 14 days. You had done various quotes and selected the one with the Diamond package, which includes some optional extras. In the terms of business which you need to agree to before buying the policy, it states that the optional extras are non refundable outside the cooling off period, and provides a breakdown of our fees and charges. It also confirms that the credit checks will be done by Premium Credit Limited if you chose to pay for your policy via direct debit. We did send out a change of bike form for you to complete, but did not receive that back, and you choose to cancel the policy when dealing with an agent over our live chat facility. Please contact us again via our live chat facility if we can run through anything further with you.

Many thanks

0344 800 966
Took them three days to come back from a query and trebled the price. Still the details were inaccurate and my details have not changed, except no points on licence. Was impossible to correct online.
If you want to call them 0344 800 966 this is the number they don't want you to know.
Used MCN comparison and got a way better deal.
DO NOT USE THEM

Dreadful

Dreadful, appalling, shocking, con artists, rip off merchants...AVOID ! filled in the online quote, all good . Checked the documents that arrived by email, found a couple of discrepancies so had to use the live chat to amend the details. Was told that I had filled it in wrong on the online form ( bull shit !) charged me £48 to amend the quote and then a £20 admin fee ! Now I've been told I've not admitted to a insurance claim (that I had no knowledge of) and now they want another £48 plus a £50 fee... Absolutely shocking, and that on line chat, f. me ! Awful... Had my pants pulled down with these , they reel you in with a good quote then continue to rob you. Great way to start with a new customer.

1 hour 10 minutes waiting in a ‘chat’ queue after not being able to advise of change of bike online due to newly registered bike not appearing in the database
70 minutes in effect ‘on hold’…
Absolutely unacceptable.
Accordingly cancelled insurance despite the admin fee of £50.
Very poor customer service.

Absolutely shocking insurance company, sky high renewals and then show up on comparison sites half the price for the same cover. Their emails always go through to your junk and they are very difficult to speak to. Overall terrible don’t use
