THE WORST SERVICE EVER!!!!

In early August , I accepted a quotation for insurance covering three vehicles with the policy scheduled to commence on 25 August. Mid-August, I sold one of the vehicles and requested a revised quotation for only two vehicles. The updated quote was agreed upon, and a revised policy schedule was sent to me—still with the same commencement date. Then, on 25 August, a debit order was processed—charging me for three vehicles. I tried contacting your office multiple times with no success. Eventually, someone got back to me, and I explained the situation clearly. I was told I would be refunded for the third vehicle, as your system reflected only two vehicles on the policy. Instead of processing the refund, I’m now being asked to provide proof of sale for the third vehicle—which is completely absurd. The request to remove the vehicle was made before the policy even started. Why am I being forced to insure a car I no longer own? I regret the day I agreed to speak to you for a quotation. What a complete waste of time—I could’ve spent that time doing something far more productive. No one in my circle will ever use this useless thing you call insurance. Getting hold of your team has been a nightmare. I’ve since cancelled the policy, and yet I’ve received no response, no refund, and no resolution. This level of service is unacceptable, and I expect this matter to be resolved immediately.

Reviewer Update
I am writing to formally lodge a complaint regarding the unacceptable handling of my insurance policy and the unresolved refund issue. In early August, I accepted a quotation for insurance covering three vehicles, with the policy scheduled to commence on 25 August. However, in mid-August, I sold one of the vehicles and promptly requested a revised quotation for only two vehicles. This updated quote was agreed upon, and I received a revised policy schedule reflecting the change—still with the same commencement date. Despite this, on 25 August, a debit order was processed charging me for three vehicles. I attempted to contact your office multiple times without success. Eventually, I was able to speak to someone and explained the situation clearly. I was assured that I would be refunded for the third vehicle, as your system reflected only two vehicles on the policy. Instead of receiving the promised refund, I was later asked to provide proof of sale for the third vehicle—an unreasonable request considering the vehicle was removed from the policy before it commenced. I should not be forced to insure a vehicle I no longer own, especially when the change was made and acknowledged in advance. I was told the refund would be processed within 14 working days, yet to date, I have received no refund, no resolution, and no further communication. I have since cancelled the policy due to the poor service and lack of accountability, but even that has not been acknowledged. This experience has been deeply frustrating and a complete waste of time. I expect this matter to be resolved immediately, with the full refund for the third vehicle processed without further delay. Please treat this as a formal complaint and escalate it to the appropriate department. I also request written confirmation of the resolution and refund timeline.
