Horrible service

I have home insurance and home emergency cover with Esure and their response is very disappointing. After raising an emergency case for plumbing through the home emergency cover channels in the morning, they quickly took payment of the excess (something which I haven't had to pay for any previous home emergency cover) but then lost interest. Having been told to wait for a call from a plumber, it never came so three hours later we called Esure back and was told they would put it through again and to wait for a call. Two further hours later with no response I called the plumbing company that Esure supposedly assigned to our case and they told me they had no record of it. So yet another call to Esure and they inform us that they never sent the case through and that they won't be able to get anyone out today anymore. So after a full day and many repeated calls to Esure, we still don't have any idea if they are sending anyone out and will have to continue struggling with the situation tomorrow. Horrendous service in response to an emergency, the only thing they have managed to do was take payment of the excess and waste a lot of time. Reviewed on: 10th July 2021

Esure

Ensure home insurance police its not worth the paper it's written on Reviewed on: 2nd March 2020

Poor terms and conditions Rejection and unfairly treated.

When you take out insurances gives you peace of mind right! well this company is not honorable one, the terms and conditions said underground services covered nice big green tick, accidental damage terms suddenly changes dependant on your claim. We had a blockage and as a reasonable home owner got a company in to clear the block, he advised a CCTV survey that revealed a scaled pipe made of cast and would need cleaning well they broke it accidently but you guessed it wont pay out due to wear and tear, what constitutes wear and tear and accidental damage as the definition of accident is a cause! they made up their mind on first contact feel very let down. I had two car insurances and home insurance that all had gone up on renewals every year, but beware this company also owns other companies under the same umbrella. A blocket toilet ended up costing us £2000 :( Reviewed on: 25th October 2019

Problematic

They mucked up my payments after I called to change my name. When I called to complain I was told that because they were due to close in 5 minutes there was no team leader or manager available and they didn’t have a complaints process! I emailed my complaint (turns out they did have a process) and everything was sorted and I was compensated. Unlikely to use them when I renew. Reviewed on: 5th September 2019

Good cover

Great cover, good prices and good customer service Reviewed on: 16th July 2019

Stay well clear of esure

Please beware of this insurance company! You will be hugely disappointed by their claims process for the most ridiculous and minor technicality. I recently made a claim for accidentally losing my wedding ring whilst on holiday. My wedding ring was valued slightly over the policy’s single article limit (only £20) and I thought there was cover in place to at least that single article limit. As a result, Esure has rejected my claim and I am now at a loss as they will not pay out on anything as I was penalised for not itemising this ring. It’s a very expensive mistake as Esure showed no sensitivity or compassion at all for my unfortunate circumstance. It’s very upsetting and stressful losing something of great sentimental value and this was made worse by Esure’s rigid and unforgiving claims process. Hard lessons:- Don’t go for the cheapest insurance, always check your cover thoroughly and stay well clear of this insurance company! Reviewed on: 6th October 2018

So far so good

No complaints. Great service and very helpful on the phone Reviewed on: 22nd September 2018

A friend in an emergency

Had a water leak through the ceiling from a pipe, called emergency line at Esure. Plumber was round in 1-2 hrs, pipe patched up in no time at all with minimum damage. It could have been a lot worse, but Esure made the process easy. Reviewed on: 29th July 2018
