Halifax Home insurance reviews (93)

Fixed the problem with little fuss

5
From start to finish I have nothing but praise for the electrician called Cameron...I have 3very loud dogs and he kept calm and resolved the issue. It was a relief coz I'd already had 2other engineers and they were faffing about for ages but didn't fix my lighting... and that was after I'd paid £250 call out charge. I hadn't even realised that I was covered on my rewards account from the Halifax. But I would definitely recommend anyone to get cover with the Halifax Reviewed on: 16th October 2023

Good value.

Very good price with excellent cover, including higher value items. I would give full scores if I had experienced their claims, although I'd prefer not to, but if I need to make a claim, I expect full excellent service and resolution. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Decent prices and handle claims really well

The test of an insurance company for me is how they handle claims and respond to queries. Halifax have been excellent and prices are pretty good too. Reviewed on: 22nd August 2023

Horrible company,waste of money

1
The claim was being dealt with slowly.They then closed down my claim because they couldn't reach me on the phone once. They obviously didn't keep track on what was going on. I've tried to restart the claim twice. An automated answer phone told me to only start a claim on the phone,if I'm a vulnerable person. Otherwise I should use the online application form. I did, so far it has been ignored. They obviously do whatever they want to. I'll have to fix the damage myself. Reviewed on: 5th June 2023

Horrible insurance company

The halifax insurance is really a waste of money for a customer by paying monthly payments, thinking that your home is protected. Ones you put a claim they really insult your home by paying you money for damage priced by year 1984. They sent someone to assess my damage and he was really unqualified to assess damage. He had no building experience, he was voice recording as he was walking through my house about the damage and my husband ,a qualified joiner with 38 years experience was listening to him talking nonsense. The assessor Wouldn't even recognise a one tipe of bathroom floor to another. He told us that he is only here to measure the rooms, he was that rude to tell us not to walk with him around our home!! According to his incompetent opinion we got a settlement figure witch would never be enough to repair our damage to a standard we had before the flood. If you read my review and you are thinking to buy their insurance, please be aware that this insurance is not there to be honest with you. My insurance policy with them was a expencive policy and I realised that was a waste of money over the years. At the start they asked to get my own building company to priced the damage witch I did, absolutely a waste of my time. Their professional estimate was absolutely ignored. Terrible company with company policy of receiving monthly payments to become rich, not to protect customers, but insult them instead! What's the point then?! Overall halifax home insurance by my own expenses 3 times over 11 years is a scam. They don't deserve even a start, but it is no option to give them 0 stars Reviewed on: 3rd May 2023
