My house is non traditional so not many insurers will even consider it. It was an easy process - straight forward questions and came away with a price about £100 less than my previous company. I made a call as I was unsure about something and was answered quickly - friendly, helpful advice.

I paid my full annual insurance of £1300 on the 28th June, 2023. When my documents didn't come through a week later I contacted them and they said that they had no record of my payment but that there finance department would be in touch. After a further week there was no correspondence and my home was not insured. I phoned them again. They said I had two option. First to repay the £1300 or secondly they would send an email to finance and hope they picked it up soon. I put a complaint forward which was upheld and the case was closed. They said that they would honour any claim I made but still no documents sent to me. The following day I got an email saying that I wasn't insured because they hadn't had any payment. I'm back on the phone now and they are saying they have received my payment and I will be insured, but they cannot send me my documents for 30 days. I have demanded to speak to a manager. Its not good enough!

She said soneone would be in touch and got an email, so I phone back again to get it sorted out again, I got gentleman which we sorted it out and it went through,then when I got the email to confirm everything, my husband noticed something did look right so I rang back and I spoke to the young girl again and she confirmed and the policy was right and made me so at ease that everything was right and not to worry so i felt so much better with her confirmation. So very pleased with the out come.

I am writing to warn other potential customers about my experience with Homeprotect. I recently sold my house and emailed to cancel my home insurance. I was told there would be charges for cancelling, which I accepted. However, two days later I received a letter threatening a default notice against my credit rating. I find this behavior to be completely unacceptable. If a company is going to charge me for cancelling my insurance, they should at least send me a settlement amount instead of threatening me. I have contacted Homeprotect to dispute the charges, but I have not yet received a response. If I do not receive a satisfactory response within 14 days, I will be forced to take this matter to the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). I urge other potential customers to avoid Homeprotect. They are a company that does not care about their customers and is willing to use threats to get what they want. I hope this helps!

Sorry to read of your disappointment. We do send your renewal documents 30 days prior, which state that your policy will automatically renew. I can see from the notes that you have spoken to someone and are happy to keep your policy running. If this isn't the case, please send your concerns to resolve@homeprotect.co.uk and I will arrange for an agent to contact you. Thanks Angela at The Homeprotect Team.

Upon making a claim, their loss adjusters are part of AXA. They call you to change your policy without giving you a right to answer so they don’t have to pay for the claim. Worst insurance ever

Buying policy from home protect online was the worse nightmare I bought home insurance policy C09/0777949 on March and I cancel it few days after and send email to cancel it and cancel the direct debit they waited two months to cancel the policy and maximise admin fee so policy of 177 pound I cancel end paying 183.26 in cancelation and admin fees if that not fraud what it’s . I have never come across company who are so fraud like home protect find different way to Maximise fees and charges so you end losing leaving them

Not a good experience. I took out buildings cover on unoccupied home while awaiting sale. I thought £18/month was good. However, on sale of house and cancelling the policy as it was no longer needed they charged me £123.76 which apparently is a £50 admin fee (for what?) and the rest as 'the shortfall of any premium up to the date of cancellation' whatever that means. No other breakdown of the charges were given. They have lost out on insurance on my new property. I would give zero stars if I could.
