I applied for appliance cover some 2 weeks ago. I received a call from Callum a week ago and at this stage have still not received any confirmation that my application has been accepted. That is the reason I have scored this so low, but really would like a response one way or another as you have taken my money!!.

AVOID SHOCKING SERVICE - Washer dryer failed and have now waited 3 weeks for replacement. Did not realize in the small print when you do have a claim there are 5 pages of forms, pictures and ID to process a engineer visit. Then there is also a delivery charge for a replacement if required, in our case a item of lesser value was the only offer. Now on 2 occasion Smart Cover have failed to arrange a delivery and had us waiting 7am to 7pm on both days. Waiting for them now to make a part cash settlement of not even the full amount.

Really unprofessional (rather cheating) on part of their boiler repair guys (preferred management). The boiler is only 5 years old and they made the wrong diagnosis. I had to pay for access. The problem reappeared due to the wrong diagnosis. At first, they said they would have to change the pump but later they said it's beyond the economic repair. A new story every time I call them. Useless insurrance.

I just think for a small job it took around 2 weeks to get resolved, which involved numerous phone calls and 3 visits. I’ve been with domestic and general and their service compared to yours is more professional. Once my insurance is up for renewal I will be going back to d&g

I apologise for the delays and inconvenience you experienced. Your claim was approved on 11/03/2019 and an engineer was immediately booked. The engineer visited your property on 13/03/2019 and repaired your fridge, however upon talking to the customer on a follow up call, the ice maker was still broken. The engineer attended your property again but unfortunately new parts were required which caused the delay. As soon as the parts arrived the engineer visited your property to finish the job. It appears the only slight delay was waiting for parts and the engineer not fixing the ice maker on the initial visit.

I called to book in for a new repair and was told I would receive a call back to book the repair. I waited over a week and called Smart Cover yo query this. I was told that the repair had been done when it had not and I had not heard anything back to book the repair either. I am now awaiting a call back again from Smart Cover regarding this repair. Which still has not been done.

Dear Miss Kuser I have reviewed this and I am aware of the problem you encountered. We sent the job to the manufacturer but there was an administration error which led to them providing an update on the wrong case. Unfortunately the confusion escalated and you were misinformed. I apologise profusely for the problem you encountered. Regards, Smart-Cover Customer Services.

The web site did not work properly and the annual fee (£139) was taken out of my bank account prior to any confirmation that you were willing to provide the service to me. Took me 2 phone calls to resolve and your response to the phone calls was in both cases "we'll get someone to call you back". You have not yet provided any physical (boiler service) assistance to me as yet but I do hope this will be more effective/efficient than your website and call handling services.

I'm sorry to hear you experienced problems with the website. The site was recently re-designed and we did experience some minor teething problems. It is now fully functioning.

It was nice talking to Mr.Kevin who explained the policy in detailed and assisted to chose the right appliances to be covered. It was easy and straight forward to sign up but hard if any claims. Loads of things to be submitted unlike the sign up. I would not recommend this cover.

I have paid £131.88 to WWW.SMART-SURE.COM on 12/06/18 for a satellite system insurance policy and I have not received a policy number or any policy documents to confirm that the equipment concerned is now covered. For this, and other reasons I wish to cancel ti within the 14 - day cooling-off period allowed.

When I went to make a claim, i was told there was a 28 day after taking out policy, where I would have to pay a excess of £250. I cancelled my policy and was advised a refund would be issued. THAT WAS 3 MONTHS AGO!!! I am still waiting. I have spoken to numerous customer services who have told me, repeatedly, the refund it with finance, and even sent letters in but still no refund. Disgusting service, a company I would NEVER recommend

Absolute joke of a service! They say they will call you back but never do!! When you call them to lodge a complaint they say all managers are in a meeting and cannot be interrupted. Staff have no customer service skills whatsoever.

I'm sorry you experienced difficulties. It appears that you reported a leak under the bath. The plumber went to the job and found that the issue had already been resolved. The bath required a new washer and was only leaking when the bath was full. This would not have been covered.
