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 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.

Took out learner driver insurance for…
Took out learner driver insurance for my son paid the 12month premium instead of monthly. My son passed his test within 7months of taking out this policy so had 5month remaining. Collingwood representatives said that 90% of my premium was used 7/12 🤦 and that the remaining 10% wasn’t enough to cover the cancellation fee so I received a bill which they kindly automatically charged my card with…..
Absolute scam of a company!!!!
We also had problems with login on my son’s portal and when we tried to contact them to rectify they kept on assuring me that I was logging in wrong or using the wrong device or inputting the wrong information, none of there instructions resolved the issue.
All we wanted was the insurance certificate as my son was taking the test in his own car, they refused to email it and said I needed to pay an admin fee to receive.
bearing in mind this was the morning of my son’s test which added to the stress he was already in.
I wouldn’t recommend this company ever to anyone, please look elsewhere, save yourself the headache.

Total rip off insurer
Total rip off insurer, I took out a 12 month learner policy for my son, paid in full. The insurer wrote to me last week highlighting the policy needs to be cancelled when the learner passes their test. As my son had passed on the Friday before, I cancelled the policy, I then received an email for a £40 cancellation fee! Despite the fact I had paid in full and only had 2 months left of the policy, IF I had let the policy expire without renewing I would have had no cancellation fee and my son had already taken out full insurance out elsewhere on his car so would not or could not have claimed on the policy as he was no longer a learner. When Collingwood email to ask you to cancel 'if you have passed' they make no mention of the cancellation fee buried in the small print, BECAUSE they want to sting you with a charge you will have forgotten about when you took the policy out, nor do they mention it when you cancel on line until after you have cancelled. Total rip off insurance for learner drivers
