Default MCE Insurance

Is this company any good? Good or bad experinces from others who have been insured with them would be useful...

They have come out with the cheapest insurance that fits my requirements, but before I pay them anything it would be good to know first.

I know that BBC is insured with them. IIRC we sorted it out last year as they were dead cheap. i know that she is having all manner of issues with them after the bike went walkabout!

I always see their name about and have seen plenty of adverts for them. They were also cheapest for my renewal that's coming up shortly. I'll hang fire until I see the responses on this thread.

utter con merchants, stole money from my account without permission using old direct debit details.... took best part of three month, 5 letters and dozens of phones calls to get it back

also the amount of times i had to phone up and change details because they'd put it down wrong was ridiculous and they even wanted to charge me 40 quid for the privilege each time

bunch of ******s if you ask me

I think thats probally a no!

How long have you all waited before you could protect your no claims? I have a good quote from Carol Nash but won't protect until 4 years or more.

I insured my 125cc with them for £200ish, went to cancel it 6 months into the policy (to insure my SV) and they said £79 will be returned which i thought fair enough thts about right, not a problem.

cancelled it and only noticed a £10 refund in my bank, not a happy bunny. So I rang up to have a go and THEN they informed me of all these hidden admin fees ect. That ****ed me off because I would have just kept it running for the sake of a tenner had I known.

Terrible reputation. I was with them, but they wouldn't play ball at renewal. they seem to be cheap to hook you then don't want to play afterwards.

I never had any problems but made sure they got formal notice that I was cancelling at the end of the policy. they have a nasty habit of trying to run things perpetually and the banks let them raid your card without your authority etc.
