Cancelation, Fee upon Fees..... Feel Like ive Been Scammed

so, insured my vehicle Monthly as the vehicle was up for sale. Sold within 7 weeks of taking out the new policy. Total policy cost was around £185 for a year, paid monthly. After paying what I have used, I was expecting a £55 cancelation fee but with other charges I ended up paying a total of £145....... for 7 weeks cover with the yearly policy being £185... How these companies can add all these fees on is beyond me. Be careful!

Great cover and great price

Easy to set up and the app makes policy information easy to view.
And the premium was over £100 less than my current renewal price. Highly recommended.
