Review of the Laka, Cycle Insurance:

They will take your money and dismiss claims

1
I was with laka for years, at some point I decided to pause my policy because I wasn't cycling and thought my bicycle was safe enough in my building. the same week I paused it it got stolen. Since I was still insured as that month was gonna be paid for I went on the website to resume my policy and obviously started a claim. They discharged me to another company called Zurich which then arranged a video call with me to basically get all the facts as laka found it suspicious. They tried to claim that I was not insured but if I still paid two months of cover after that pause so the entire time I was covered. then Zurich said they are still waiting for police to confirm my report. It has been about 6 months! I am seriously considering making a complain to ombudsman as this is not ethical at all and I feel robbed after paying my insurance for so long and then being dismissed like this.

Transparent and flexible bike insurance

I’ve used Laka since it started to insure my bike and is a highly transparent and flexible service. I had to pause cycling for a couple months and was very easy to downgrade my cover to save on costs. Reviewed on: 16th October 2023
