My first experience with HomeProtect was disastrous. I signed insurance Policy Ref: C28/0673726 on March 18, 2022. What happened: I decided to change direct debit bank. I called and notified HomeProtect. On June 24, I received an official confirmation from HomeProtect about the change of bank details. However, when the time came for the next month payment (£78.39) the company used the old details (I was notified by the bank where I closed the account) and HomeProtect, of course, did not receive money. On June 30 HomeProtect notified me that my most recent instalment of £78.39 hasn't been paid, due to insufficient funds. I have been fined (£20) and I was informed that a loan agreement (at a rate of 12%) should come into effect. I called HomeProtect and begged them to use new payment details that I had previously informed them off and which they officially confirmed. In vain. They kept claiming that they used the new details. I contacted the new bank and got confirmation that HomeProtect has not made any attempt to collect the payment. What I did: I realized that I was in a dangerous situation. Having money, I could make a payment because of unprofessional and incomprehensible actions of HomeProtect. I called HomeProtect again and said I didn't want to make monthly payments. I want to pay the entire balance before the end of the contract in a lump sum. This conversation took place on June 30. My new bank confirmed that HomeProtect received the amount (£655.02) on July 1. Until now (today is the 10th of July 2022) I do not have official confirmation from HomeProtect that my financial obligations to HomeProtect have been repaid in full. My calls with inquiries to HomeProtect did not lead to any results. As a result: 1. I have already suffered financial losses (I paid a fine (£20) for HomeProtect mistake in the client's payment details). 2. I am in a state of uncertainty. The company refuses to acknowledge receipt of my money in the amount of £655.02. 3. All I hope is they don't try to get more money from me. My advice: NEVER USE HomeProtect! IT IS DANGEROUS!

Did online quote with homeprotect coming out as top 3. Looked at what is included in the policy and purchased as this was the o e best suited to me. A great price and great after sales with a key fob to add to my keys as a info tag if anyone finds them there is a reward for the return and thought a great idea. Happy customer.

Home Protect state they cover legal issues. However, these are all outsourced to third party DAS Legal. Google them to see what an atrocious company. Home Protect explain they represent DAS Legal as their sellers only, but have no authority over them. Further, our policy makes no mention of DAS Legal nor that Home Protect purely sell on their behalf. In fact, the opposite: The insurance policy states Home Protect would "administer insurance working with reputable providers," and DAS Legal is not mentioned. This to be settled via Ombudsman and courts as Home Protect neither administer third parties listed in their policy, nor reputable ones, and have no control. The "resolve" email to Angela is a farse.

I had a underground burst pipe back in september. This soaked my carpet and base of 1 of my cabinets. The walls and floorboards were repaired. I have messaged on numerous occasions re the carpet and cabinet. Only to be ignored. Last email in April. Have not been able to use this room all this time. Not impressed at all. Don't seem to care.

Second home was sold. Informed them via their Contact Us form I would be cancelling next premium. They ignored this. Replied to first email saying they could not collect saying I had informed them. Second threatening email said they would be taking £136.12 to cover cancellation fee, arrangement fee and unpaid premiums, yet website only mentions an (unknown to me) £50 cancellation fee. Other fees are buried. Tone on email quite threatening. So, beware if you don't think you need the policy for a whole year or cancelling mid term because you will get slapped with about 6 months premiums to pay.

Appalling customer service. After waiting 15 months for our house to be restored after a flood the new kitchen pipework their OWN contractor installed failed and flooded the house and caused more damage than the initial flood. Home Protect don't want to know. It's not covered because it's the pipework that failed... 12 month guarantee from the contractor is worthless. So we're left with an uninhabitable house yet again, this time caused by the insurer's own contractor, and we're back to square one, but with worse damage than we started with. It would have been better to never insure our home, save ourselves money, go through the flood and repair the damage ourselves much more quickly and to a considerably higher standard than the contractor did. The amount of financial hardship and stress this company, its underwriters, loss adjusters and contractors have put us through is unbearable. Avoid like the plague and use an insurance company that stands by its customers and uses contractors that know what they are doing.
