Not Christian at all

1
I am a pastor of a church in Scotland and went to this insurer because of its church/ Christian connection. They would not give me insurance because I have a criminal conviction from when I was a teenager. I just replied this to them: “Thank you for your reply, for which I am grateful. However, I must admit it is very disappointing that a company which for years would have made a fortune out of church work and church workers will not entertain a church-worker (me) because of my past. It is ironic that God Himself sees it fit to wipe my slate clean, yet a Christian/ church-connected insurer will not. Kind regards…….” Reviewed on: 6th October 2025

Generally good but a bit old fashioned to deal with.

I’ve been with ecclesiastical for a few years. Their advisers are always friendly and helpful. The price generally feels quite high though and I haven’t shopped around in a while so I couldn’t say if they’re good value or not. My only frustration is that they’re not easy to contact or deal with. Every interaction requires a phone call and response times are slow. Reviewed on: 28th August 2023
