I called Hastings Direct to update some details on my car insurance, but ended up being charged £7 for the call. Bit annoying, really.

I am extremely disappointed and shocked by the poor customer service experience I am currently having with Hastings Direct. Can someone please advise me on how to proceed with reclaiming my money from them? It seems that they are very inconsiderate and careless in their approach towards customers.

noticed a £1.50 charge for a missed call and called back since i couldnt recall making the call but seeing it on my phone bill means i must’ve dialed it at some point

I received a phone call from them, but I missed it. So, I decided to call them back, but unfortunately, no one answered. The problem is, I was still charged £1.50 for the call. I'm about to get a new car and I am dreading the process of adjusting my insurance because of what others here have been charged. But I really need to sort it out.

It's not the number I dialed that concerns me, but the number I'm being billed for. I was instructed to provide this number while I was being transferred.

I noticed a weird charge of £10.54 from this number on my bill. Don’t even recall dialing it or anything. Strange!

Hastings Direct has debited over £600 from my bank account without any explanation. It turns out they did this because I made a one-time payment for my daughter's car insurance last year, and assumed they could repeat the same procedure this year. This is quite unbelievable, especially because my daughter has already negotiated a new quote for a different amount this year. Calling their customer service helpline cost me £20, and when I reached out via email, they claimed that the phone number I dialed didn't belong to them. Throughout the call, I repeatedly asked them to investigate the issue and call me back, but all they said was that it wouldn't take long. This level of customer service is truly appalling, and I am determined to take this matter further. I urge you not to call their number, but instead fight for your money back by sending them emails, as it is a more cost-effective option.

Hastings insurance, what a bunch of idiots for charging such exorbitant prices for phone calls?

I'm extremely angry with Hastings Direct. They haven't provided any assistance during my supposed claim, and on top of that, they charged me more than £30 to resolve the issue. As soon as my policy expires, I will definitely switch from them. I'm thoroughly disgusted.

I also used the same number and ended up being charged £22.73 for a forty-minute call. Throughout the entire call, I had to wait and repeatedly heard the message saying "your call will be answered shortly" as they claimed to be extremely busy. After waiting for 41 minutes, I decided to hang up. I am currently a customer with them, but I will not be using their services again once my policy expires. It's such a rip-off, and I believe they should be reported to the watchdog or a similar organization to expose their unfair practices. This is coming from an unhappy customer.

I wasn't informed by Hastings Direct about the cost of £70 that I incurred during a single day phone call when making a claim.

I need to report this telephone number; I've been invoiced more than £35.00 for making two calls to Hastings Direct. It's absolutely appalling that they are imposing charges for utilizing their insurance services.

We were instructed to contact a specified number in order to make inquiries about my daughter's car insurance policy. However, it is highly disappointing that no information was provided regarding the charges associated with using that number. The notification only indicated that it should be used for proceeding with the policy, cancelling it, or making changes. This cunning tactic essentially forces us to use the number, especially since our intention was to renew the policy. It's truly disheartening :-(

I'm appalled by the way Hastings Direct car insurance helpline charged me on two different levels for contacting them. Firstly, I was hit with an access charge, followed by a service charge. Unfortunately, I had to ring them three times when attempting to update my policy for a new car. Despite pointing out their excessive charges, there wasn't an option for existing policy holders to request a call back. To make matters worse, they haven't provided any explanation for these additional costs on my phone bill. On top of all this, there's also an administration fee applied when changing the policy. The call lasted a frustrating 44 minutes, most of which was spent dealing with an unhelpful representative who struggled to ask basic questions about whether my car was a coupe or a tailgate hatchback. It's incredibly annoying and I believe these charges are being sneaked in through the back door - truly shameful behavior from Hastings Direct.

I've been charged £8.00, but the confusing part is that one call lasts for 10 hours! Strangely, there is no trace of me dialing this number on my phone's call log.

I've just noticed a charge of £26 on my phone bill linked to this number. It claims the call lasted for an astonishing 1 hour and 46 minutes! I'm baffled, as I can't think of any conversation that would have gone on for that long. Can't seem to find out who this number even belongs to, either!

Just received my mobile phone invoice.

Unfortunately, I am unable to locate any information about the identity of this number on the internet.

Steer clear of picking up that call, unless you're keen on racking up a hefty phone bill!
