Review of the Home Protect, Home Insurance:

Do not go with home protect

Please do not solicit this company's services. You would be left deeply disheartened and upset. I had my bag stolen next to me while having a post work drink with a colleague, all recorded on CCTV and reported to the police. It has been 3 months so far waiting for compensation for my Mac which was inside the bag. I was told the company was waiting for the police report, only to find months later that the company did not consider this as a theft only after giving them a call. ...

They have their own rules - you say your house will cost x to rebuild, they randomly add value to that (in case building costs go up). But if it costs more (based on their EXPERT opinion), they only pay a % of the total claim. Then I am having some building work done, and they refuse to cover all sorts of things - all they will cover is if something drops from a plane or an earthquake. Even the gentleman I spoke to was surprised and said it made no sense. I won't be touching the... Reviewed on: 9th April 2025

Absolutely Awful Service had Storm Damage and advised I could get the repair done myself. No Physical Damage IE Tiles blown off but all loosened so had replaced with New Panelling. Now told me I need to have a Damage Report which wasnt stipulated when I was told i could get the repairs done myself. AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL experience avoid like the plague. Anything to not to pay a small claim Photograohic Evidence Sent but still not enough, Reporting to the Ombudsman !! Reviewed on: 19th February 2025

DO NOT USE HOMEPROTECT

Don't waste your money, you'll never get a pay out if you claim. They work incredibly hard to provide evidence the claim can't progress due to you not giving them the right information. I've spent the last 4 months jumping through hoops; pictures, quotes, videos and they are still looking for an excuse to stop the claim despite being initially told it was fine and was offered a cash settlement, but before I could receive it they passed it on to a loss adjustor who started asking...

THE MARK OF A GOOD INSURER IS WHEN YOU TRY TO CLAIM!

In January 2024, during a cold snap, the water main supply pipe for our property burst. We were relieved to discover that our insurance with Home Protect covers the repair of the pipe, but the relief was short lived. Nearly nine months later and our burst pipe still hasn't been fixed, and there has been hundreds of litres of water leeching into the ground daily during this period. My wife and I have spent hours on the phone trying to get this issue resolved, without success. To ... Reviewed on: 17th September 2024

Beyond Awful Service

Came out to fix a water leak on my toilet, so turned water off and left me without a Toilet. Recalling my money and using a proper Insurance company. Dont waste your time despite me being disabled just fluff you off on the phone. Call has been expedited they say will have an answer in 24 hours. Yes you are an awesome service provider !!

Excellent insurance - Home Protect

Good policy coverage - eg on prior convictions and full legal expenses. Helpful staff. Easy to read the documentation. Competitively priced. Reviewed on: 24th August 2024

Huge renewal increase and poor account management.

I received two emails from Home Protect regarding the renewal of my home insurance. The first said that they had tried to take a payment for auto-renewal but the payment request had been refused. The second said, correctly, that I didn't have auto renewal set. Neither mentioned the renewal amount. When I contacted the company I realised why they had tried to auto-renew without telling me for how much. The premium increase was an enormous 60%. I was easily able to find another (...

I became a customer 11 years ago with specific coverage requirements. I compare every renewal but remain with them. Competitive pricing every time too. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Tried to take unauthorised payment

Home protect couldn't decide whether I had automatic renewal or not. So they sent me an email telling me that I had, but that their attempt to take a payment had been declined. The sent me a second email saying that I did not have automatic renewal and that I had to pay manually. At no time did they tell me the renewal amount. When I telephoned to find the cost it became clear why they had been reluctant to tell me. The increase was enormous. I learnt my lesson and moved to a di... Reviewed on: 14th August 2024
