Each year the Insurance Choice Awards set out on a quest to find the UK’s best insurance providers, brokers and partners. And last night, Smart Money People announced its 2019 winners in London.
Based on the feedback of over 26,000 customers, it’s fair to say that the 2019 voting period delivered a few surprises, with a wide cross section of insurance firms competing to be crowned a customer favourite, from household names through to start-ups launched in the last few years.
To catch-up on all the action from the ceremony, you can relive the night over on our Twitter page. You can also follow our LinkedIn page which will today be updated with official pictures from the night.
And so, without any further ado, here are our 2019 winners:

Michael Fotis, the Founder of Smart Money People said, “The voting process has once again demonstrated that many insurance firms have made the jump from viewing their customers simply as policy numbers. It’s also particularly pleasing to see that innovative new propositions are starting to filter through and delight customers, with firms like By Miles, Laka, Digital Risks and FloodFlash representing this new wave of insurance firms.”
The awards ceremony featured live musicians and a stunning aerial performance, helping to make the Insurance Choice Awards 2019 a hit with attendees. The comedian Lucy Porter assumed the role of host and delivered a laugh out loud comedy set before revealing the winners.
Congratulations once again to all our 2019 Winners and Finalists.
