Avoid this company like the PLAGUE

This is by far the worst insurance company I have dealt with, during my 28 years a driver.
After just three days of the policy starting, and not even receiving their device, they started sending intimidatory emails about cancelling my policy and charges. After 5 days there device never arrived, these emails were sent daily! Once the device arrived, you receive tips of driving, and how to drive!
So I cancelled my policy, and then they sent a whole list of hidden charges including an arrangement fee over 17% cost of the policy, and other charges. After sending 9 emails and 4 telephone calls, still I get no sense from their staff, staff who are desperately under trained and have zero customer service acumen. I am still receiving credit agreement notices and letters, threatening to deduct my bank account, although I cancelled my policy. Save yourself a lot of drama and headache, and avoid this company like the BUBONIC PLAGUE.

I would give zero if it was an option

I would give zero if it was an option, I was only insured for two weeks before I received an email to notify me that my policy is being cancelled and didn't recieve any emails before this to warn me of my driving which wasn't excessive in speed. I paid a £220 deposit and will have to pay £75 policy cancellation charges for only 2 weeks of insurance. This company is a rip off, please keep away they are a disgusting company and shouldn't be operating. I will be taking this to trading standards. Good riddens

We do need you to provide us with a reference number as we can't trace your policy accurately with just the name you have left the review under.

I was quite upset to receive an email on 27 September stating that my car insurance has been cancelled before it even started and that I owed Stella £75 cancellation fee!!! I choose Stella during the last week of September to renewal my insurance commencing with a start date of today, 9th October. Please note that this is a renewal so I obviously had an existing insurance running that’s why I chose 9th October. Please read the small print before upsetting your customers.

Kind regards
Adelle

We are sorry to hear about your less than satisfactory experience with us. We can see your policy has been setup from the 9th of October 2024. A customer service agent will contact you to confirm this and check that you are happy with your policy.

We hope you will allow us this opportunity to put things right.

Very impressed so far

First time i’ve used Stella. Very impressed so far. Easy to set up the black box (with my garage showing me in 30 seconds where it needed to be plugged in!) and the App. Customer service very helpful explaining how they score your driving. The black box is also less sensitive compared to Hastings Direct which I used last year and kept marking me down for minimal braking. And their quote was easily the most competitive.
