Avoid this company

Barclays Home Insurance will do all in their power to undercut a claim. Basically they refuse to replace an item like for like. Their policy booklet states that - ‘Replacement will be on a like for like basis or based on the nearest equivalent available in the current market.’ Don't believe this. All they offer is a cash settlement well below the current value of what is available. Furthermore their customer care is appalling. They don't ring back when they say they will and when they eventually do, there is no hint of an apology. All you get is a load of dribble - anything to avoid paying up.

Disappointed with cover when needed and how claim dealt with.

Have learnt more from my experience when making a claim on my insurance to find out they dont cover it on that wind speed or bad weather condition. Plus no empathy expressed when finding this out just matter of fact other than the first person l spoke to who actually asked if l wished to make a complaint and put that in motion. But to no avail it was not accepted as lots of assumption made on their before of why not even though l was in the house when it happened. Felt me as a claiment was dealt with more like a number and not as a person on the end of the phone or by letter. Disappointing customer care. Reviewed on: 10th September 2020

easy to set up, was discussed step by step so i understood what everything meant etc. No hard selling or what i call over selling, listened exactly to what i wanted and the man sorted it all out for me. Customer service has been amazing so far Reviewed on: 2nd August 2020

Why pay when you can never make a claim

1
If I could I’d have put minus stars. Absolute joke. We had a roof that leaked, couldn’t claim. We’ve now had a leak through the conservatory, can’t claim as the winds aren’t more the 50 miles per hour?? Happy to take the money ( not the cheapest either) but don’t want to pay. Absolute joke of a company. Will not be renewing with them and will advise as many people as I know not to go with them. Disgraceful., Reviewed on: 14th November 2019
