How hard is it to cancel esure?
esure scores 64/100 (grade C) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the GB — a partially documented cancellation policy with notable gaps. Cancellation is available via phone.
esure car insurance is cancelled by phone (0345 045 1000); online self-service cancellation is not offered, only self-service policy changes. There is a 14-day cooling-off period from policy start or receipt of documents. Cancelling within cooling-off costs a £29 fee (plus a charge for time on cover); cancelling after cooling-off costs £67 during the first period of cover and £36 in subsequent periods, with a pro-rata refund of unused premium minus those fees. No refund if a claim has been made. Fees shown apply to policies bought or renewed on or after 28 February 2025. Policies auto-renew unless opted out.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
