Via this experience I found that you cannot insure elsewhere until your previous insurer cancels the auto renewal, apparently it is illegal to have a car insured on more than one policy. Over all I found Hastings to be a very stroppy outfit with more than a whiff of shoddy sharp-practice about it. Auto renewal binds you to outfits like this and prevents you going elsewhere until you can batter down their door and get them to release you from their shackles. I have recently returned to the AA for my car insurance. It is on auto renewal but I trust them to be service orientated as I've always found them to be friendly and helpful over the years. The difference between it and Hastings is like chalk and cheese. No more obstruction or sharp practices like pretending that they could not obtain proof of NCB from your previous insurer when your previous insurer confirms that they haven't even asked for it. All done by Hastings so that they can harass you with threats of we will charge you for this or charge you for that and WE WILL cancel your policy and charge you for doing so if - blah, blah, blah. I'd never had a problem with an insurer in all my years of driving, never seen anything like what I experienced with Hastings Direct. It is a stain on the sector and good riddance to it. |

It’s our annual Xmas awards ceremony next week, I’ve avoided it for the last few years but I’ve got to be there this time, I think I’m being awarded for being there for more than 6 months or something

It's far more pleasurable sitting next to the fire with the dogs, my seasonal adjustment is in full working order
