Not great

Freuatrating that changing your details results in such high admin costs Reviewed on: 23rd August 2017

Good but not the best

My renewal was a lot more, even though I'd made no claims and been with them for yours. However after looking on comparison sites, my renewal was still cheapest. Reviewed on: 1st August 2017

Laptop not covered due to insufficient damage

1
Knocked my laptop of the table and it died. Had it insured specifically cos its expensive. They took it away and after a few days i was told it wasn't covered as it was "wear and tear, deterioration over time mechanical failure." This happened at the same time the laptop hit the ground.....which was convenient for them. If it had physical damage then maybe they could say it was a result from that but unfortunately for me it landed on its bottom and whatever broke inside was undetectable by them so basically tough luck. Though I should feel free to pay someone else to look at it and then esure will have the same people who looked at it the first time check it again. If i had the money to pay other people to look at it then I would have rather than rely on them. So glad I paid for the extra cover. No wonder the forums online say "if its broken, make sure if you send it to them with enough damaged so they cant weasel out of it." Honesty gets you nothing. Reviewed on: 29th July 2017

Great customer service if you need it. Very competitive prices Reviewed on: 26th July 2017

Great service at an emotional time

I was devastated earlier this year to have lost my diamond solitaire engagement ring. I wore this ring every day for 20 years and was beside myself that I lost it. It was insured this year with Esure and I cannot fault how compassionately they dealt with my claim. They were helpful and patient every step of the way from notifying them of the loss, to the time they gave me to try and search high and low for the ring. When ultimately I had looked everywhere I could and had to acknowledge it had gone the staff at Esure made the process of claiming for and replacing the ring as painless as it could be. I would wholeheartedly recommend them. Reviewed on: 15th July 2017

Friendly but...

Received our renewal notice the other day and it had gone up loads. I rang to see if there was any scope for negotiation but although the chap was very friendly, wouldn't be budged on the price. I did renew as I like the cover but thought they might make a little more effort to retain my custom. Reviewed on: 15th July 2017

good company

Good service

We have used Esure several times in the past for home and car insurance. They often come up as one of the cheapest on comparison websites and we have found their customer service to be very friendly and helpful. The documents are always clearly worded and they keep us informed as to when our policy is due for renewal. Reviewed on: 4th July 2017

Just don't try to claim even with emergency cover

1
I went with them for home and contents due to the price, even have emergency home cover. It might be the same with all insurance companies but it seems I have to get the problem fully assessed before they will send an assessor. So have to pay for a plumber/builder to come in to assess the issue. Not happy. Reviewed on: 27th January 2017
