Review of the Nationwide, Home Insurance:

I paid a premium but service was poor

I paid a premium as I expected good service and well rounded cover. tried to make two claims - one for legal cover and another for broken window. Both rejected due to poor t&cs Reviewed on: 13th October 2024

Water claim

My experience is based on my claims experience. I claimed for a flood in my house. It was devastating . Because of the size of the claim a claims manager was allocated to my case. I have had an almost total lack of communication and assistance. Nearly 4 months later I am still being asked questions about the claim. My helpful advice would be to engage your own assessor. You may have to pay a fee but it will save you much heart ache and they will navigate the process for you. ... Reviewed on: 16th March 2025

Avoid at all costs! Shocking service

Due to the high winds/storm our roof came off, leaving our house exposed to the elements. Not only were the phone lines down for an entire day, I was then told a surveyor can’t come out for two weeks. I have then been told that if I take the matter into my own hands to at least make my house watertight I might not be covered. Since then there’s now a significant amount of damage to my bedroom, with water pouring down the walls, carpets/lights damaged. An absolute joke of a servi... Reviewed on: 22nd December 2024

Nationwide insurance the most expensive i received

our family home has been with Nationwide building society for many years, around a decade i think, however this year the premium quote nearly doubled and upon getting other quotes, most of the other quotes were around their previous year's quotes or if more, they were significantly below Nationwide building society home insurance. You really should check around before accepting near 100% premium increases. Reviewed on: 18th November 2024

UK insurance failed to cover a small claim for dental care (even though that have in the past …we pay a reasonably high premium to cover our trip and disappointed that this claim was rejected for a T&C that I have no record of! wasn’t like this in the past …looking elsewhere for 2025 Reviewed on: 25th October 2024

The best price.

The best price for complete cover. Easy to understand insurance. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Finally, my own home.

I recently moved home and one of the legal requirements of purchasing my property, and before being able to exchange contracts, involved purchasing buildings/home insurance. This enables one party to be covered before actually taking ownership of a property should anything wrong. I did a lot of homework online and by asking friends and found likely potentials but at rather a high cost. As I already had a savings account with Nationwide it was easy to enquire in one of their high... Reviewed on: 31st July 2024

Home insurance claim August 23 for water damage from water tank. Substantial damage to property. Found out that policy was underwritten by RSA. Nationwide completely disinterested and passed to RSA. Diabolical company to deal with. Uninhabitable home and provided no alternative accommodation for 7 weeks, have been obstructive throughout and I have severe health condition and a 3 year old with Autism. They really don’t care. Still have not settled completely and have never sent a... Reviewed on: 23rd July 2024

Awful Ordeal Whilst Being 7 Months Pregnant

We called yourselves on the 07/01/24 at 6.45am morning needing a plumber to come and fix our blocked pipe as the pipe had leaked all over our bathroom floor, however we was told we couldn’t have anyone attend until Monday AM. Leaving us unable to use our toilet. At this point we had buckets and towels full of water. It had blew our electrics as this had leaked into our kitchen, but again you still didn't send anyone to fix the issue. You sent an electrician to fix the electric i...
