Swift and painless claim

L&G paid me the insurance for a damaged camera very quickly and I was able to have it repaired and back in use on. next to no time. Reviewed on: 5th September 2025

Very straightforward service and competitive costs.

Very straightforward service and competitive costs. Only once have I put in a claim and it was dealt with really well, although I decided to not go ahead with the claim based on the customer services conclusions. Reviewed on: 4th September 2024

A fantastic switch to great value home insurance

Excellence

Not the cheapest but perfect results when we had to claim. You hear so many stories from customers who had claims denied for trivial reasons...not if you are with L&G Reviewed on: 9th August 2023

If I Could Give Lower Than a Zero Star. I would.

I tried to get a life insurance policy with L&G and was turned down based on one letter from my GP. If they had an AHMP employed in their company, they would see no pattern of behaviour. There aren't multiple letters/reports from SABP, no SCARF reports, and nothing from SECamb and yet, they felt its okay to discriminate someone based on one incident that was not serious. This is why mental health is continuing to be shunned. Companies like L&G ensure that this discrimination continues. Do not use their "company". They are absolutely horrid.

Disgrace of a company

Had a water leak ten months ago and still awaiting any building work to commence. Broken sharp tiles, nails sticking out of walls and mold on walls. We have a just turned four year old child. No reply from legal and general. Reviewed on: 30th May 2022

Don't Recognise No Claims Bonus

Was with them for several years before switching to Direct Line but for this year's home insurance renewal thought I'd contact them for a comparative quote. Their system fails to recognise my no claims bonus with Direct Line re a claim I initially made but then withdrew after the tiny water leak I initially reported turned out to be a bit of incorrectly applied silicone to my shower enclosure with no settlement therefore required as a result. Direct Line even called them to confirm that no payment was made to me and that I withdrew the claim, however their computer fails to recognise this and they asked me to tell Direct Line to change the wording from 'settled to incident'. I tried calling back to see if the centralised computer which all insurance companies share, has been updated to reflect the wording they require but as I cannot take being cut off and repeatedly put on hold half an hour each time since yesterday, have decided to stick with Direct Line as dealing with this company is too stressful.

Nightmare company

Had storm damage claim and they are trying to wriggle out of it by saying it’s wear and tear . Other reviewers have had the same experience. Two months on and water is flooding into my home and barn and they are not interested. I am now forced to take them to court. Do not deal with this company if you do you probably won’t be insured !!
