Hippo sends out your information to Carfin without your consent
<p>Unfortunately I used Hippo for the first time.</p> <p> </p> <p>I was just browsing all their quotes and thought I'd check out their vehicle finance section. Upon submitting all my info I was greeted by a page stating my info had been sent to Carfin and they would be in contact with me regarding my application. Come on guys, you brand yourself on comparing quotes, you state in the beginning of your website that you will not share our personal info so then why? Why? Why?</p> <p> </p> <p>I think, for your best interests, give users an option to send their stuff through to Carfin. Alternatively do not brand yourselves as being a sort of 'quote' specialist. Rather change your theme song to 'We need the hippo.. We need the hippo to send details without consent..'!!!!!</p>
