My policy schedule had a specific cover item missing which was on other documentation. I emailed RIAS via their online portal and the matter was resolved within 24 hours. Happy with the service and price. Reviewed on: 7th September 2017

Gouging Pensioners by charging over 3 times the average - AVOID!!

1
I just found out my 88 year old mother is paying £459.93 per year for home insurance. I only pay Admiral £135.64 for a holiday home of very similar value and property type which is unoccupied for 3 weeks of the month. I called Rias and spoke to a guy called George in Customer Service who offered no explanations or anything as to why they are taking advantage of a lady who is nearly 90. A quick look on the web reveals that RIAS is bad news I recommend anyone using them and especially if there are elderly family members check the price VERY, VERY, CAREFULLY!!

Home insurance

I found Rias helpful and the house insurance was reasonable, they are a reputable company and are easy to deal with, when I needed to make a claim the lady helped me all of the way, no pressure or difficulties, I have always trusted this insurer for my needs. Reviewed on: 1st August 2017

Stunning revelation on follow up!

1
I have made the most extraordinary discovery re my 90 year old mother's claim. So exasperated have i been by my perception of the contempt that RIAS appear to have displayed to the elderly and vulnerable, I decided to request a copy of my file and all related notes under Data Protection legislation. There were many pieces of information that confirmed my previous views but one which did stand out was that the team leader handling my mother's claim, in writing made a recommendation that my mother's insurance renewal not be permitted as i had Twittered my complaints! Luckily he was advised by compliance and PR not to proceed down this route but it does astonish me that a 90 year-old lady would have been penalised because her son, looking after her affairs, had the audacity to publicly complain! Incidentally this same team leader just a few days later was making a final judgement on the compensation issues. Reviewed on: 21st November 2016
