Domestic and General Warranty reviews (98)

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

Run away from this company as fast as possible. Between D&G, Whirlpool and Hotpoint, they can't arrange an engineer revisit to save their lives. I got passed from call centre to call centre saying they can't help, just kept getting asked to try calling a different number. The icing on the cake was the last number they gave me was no longer in use. It's Frankensteins monster of insurance companies. Will definitely leave before my next renewal and I won't look back. They are not worth the money I'm paying. Tldr: avoid at all costs, I beg you. Reviewed on: 28th April 2022

Worry free Appliance insurance

Most of my Appliances are protected by domestic and General, it’s Easy to deal with customer services and user friendly app, I would definitely recommend them to all family and friends Reviewed on: 31st March 2022

Damages your products instead of repairing it!

When I purchased my £999 Macbook Air via the John Lewis website I also purchased Domestic & General insurance for accidental damage. I had spilled a liquid over my laptop and I sent my MacBook Air in for repair, and after three weeks, I received my laptop in a flimsy paper envelope with dents all over it. I had received the laptop in WORSE condition than when I had shipped it. Even worse, the laptop had not been repaired. There were no indications that the laptop had been repaired at all. It's been more than two months since I sent my laptop in for repair, and it still hasn't been fixed. After filing a complaint about my broken laptop, I contacted Domestic & General support (nearly 3 weeks after filing the complaint), and they had the audacity to lie to me over the phone. They claimed that the laptop repair company had made "several attempts to reach me." This is a blatant lie because I read my emails on a daily basis, including the junk folder. They then lied to me on the phone, claiming that they had "called me earlier" and that I had told them that I was "unavailable”. I had never had a call from them before, and I had informed the support representative of this, who was quick to deny it and tried to shrug it off. They further claimed the flimsy envelope was "Apple approved packing." I've had many repairs done in the past, and this was NOTHING LIKE the packaging my laptop is typically packed in. This packaging would never be approved by Apple, as there is no bubble wrap to protect the laptop. They had requested that I forward images of the dents on my laptop which I have done so and it has been 18 days and I have not got any update. I purchased insurance for peace of mind but the service I have experienced has been the complete opposite. Instead I have been without a laptop for over 2 months and I have had lies fed to me the entire time. My feedback to Domestic and General: Please assist me in resolving my issue; I want a fair and timely resolution that will satisfy me. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Appalling service

Avoid like the plague. Their warranty offers are beyond disappointing and their customer service is even worse. Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Dont buy their policies, they are worthless

Do not buy their appliance cover its a scam I had all my kitchen appliances on your cover. Called you because my dishwasher wasnt operating correctly and damaged. engineer visits on a number of occasions, still waiting for parts, I make a complaint and you write to tell me the machine functions correctly and I am satisfied with the repair. If I was satisfied I wouldnt have called you...no time scale for the parts or repair and currently 30 minutes on hold time to your laughable customer service team....I have an appliance currently held together with insulating tape and the company tell me its fine.

WORSE COMPANY EVER!! BEWARE

1
WORSE COMPANY EVER!! BEWARE Been with this company for years but when called out for a radiator leak, the engineer came out but refused to repair the leak as he said the condition wasn’t good in the property. There was a baby in the house with no heating for a couple of days but the engineer will not show any sympathy. It was only a five minutes repair I’ve done myself. After paying this company for years. Tried to ring the Domestic & General a few times and was put on hold for hours and then put my phone down. After trying for weeks finally got through to a complaint department then they refuse to refund me and disconnect my phone and cancel my policy too. Now I’m writing to the directors of the company to make them aware of the situation I hope they will help. Please stay away from this company the worst company ever once you need to call them out.

Shocking service!!

Domestic and general think a 3x week time frame is fine for a repair. It will be 3x weeks to the day before they will repair our appliance shocking service. I will like to see those who say this is acceptable try and manage with a family with no washer dryer. Try else where for a repair plan!! After many years with them we certainly will!!
