Changed my address twice so im not covered

1
These lot have automatically changed my address twice in a row. Now I have to call them again and get it sorted. poor service and will be cancelling all my products as they dont care. when it happend 1st I was passed pillar to post and knowone would take ownership. for e.g if my tv or home appliace broke or something went wrong I was told I would not have been covered. They only appologised. now I am waiting for them to contact me. This comoany is a Disgrace and I am so frustrated with them Reviewed on: 4th October 2022

Very Poor Service

Originally took out policy on appliances on 8/4/22. Was supposed to receive email that day or next with the policy info. Also, policy info would be provided by regular mail in 7-10 days. Did not receive email and called again. Email address had been input incorrectly. Was told that I would receive email the next day. I did finally receive an email that allowed me to create an on-line account; but still no information pertaining to the policy. When I attempted to create an account, based on the received email, their system wouldn't allow it. System kept indicating that the zip code I was inputting was not valid. As of 9/8/22 I still had not received policy in mail. I called and was told that the original email that is sent out is only sent once. If it goes to the wrong address -- tough!! No way to resend it. (What a hell of a way to run a business.) I asked the representative I was speaking with about the inability to create an account due to the zip code issue. She suggested it was possibly a system error and I could try again tomorrow. This was at least my third attempt at creating an account, on different days, with all attempts failing due to the same issue -- invalid zip code. The representative went on to say that there was nothing she could do about not being able to create an account -- no referral to someone else, nothing!!! At this point, I decided to cancel this plan. Now, I'll wait to see if I actually receive my refund and no future charges are placed on my card. Reviewed on: 8th September 2022

Appalling cover and company

1
Appalling cover. You pay whilst appliances in warranty period, it turns out for accidental damage only. Once out of warranty they bump up prices (& say told me in email that probably went to junk). Then phone up to complain and complains dept wont take phone calls (I wonder why?!!) and I ask about claiming for accidental damage and they say that accidental dints etc not covered! Treatment disgraceful, my advice is avoid D&G, dont waste your money. Reviewed on: 26th August 2022

Best Home Appliance Insurance

Just recently had an unbelievably great experience with Domestic and General. They sent an engineer to check on my washing machine which I earlier reported as it wasn't working. The engineer checked it and found out that it was unrepairable. Domestic and General kept their word that if they can't repair, they will replace. After 4 days we were a happy family with a brand new washing machine delivered and installed totally free of charge. Reviewed on: 13th August 2022

Very good Company

Fantastic service

White line appeared on my TV. Booked repair online. Was booked for 2 days later. The engineers called me the next day asking for pics. Once sent, received a text that they'd be replacing. Not long later got an email with an argos voucher. Managed to get a bigger TV and only had to add £5 plus delivery. To confirm, booked repair online on the Monday, by weds night, around 8:45pm, new TV was in my bedroom. Reviewed on: 9th June 2022
