Review of the Saga, Home Insurance:

all ok. good service

all ok. good service. prefab house insurance is specialised and expensive, best price was found with Saga Reviewed on: 23rd August 2024

Frustrating

They made you waiting hours, with music. The claims does not want to give what the write in the contract. Imposible to get in coctat with the company. Always making mistakes. I will never make any insurence with them. Naither trips. They ignore you. Reviewed on: 6th December 2023

Exorbitant Renewal Quote

£134 year one-Year 2 quote £371. Ludicrous. Many providers quoting same as first year price. absolute joke. Reviewed on: 6th December 2023

Awful customer service

tried 9 times to cancel my fathers home insurance due to the huge increase in premium, could never get through. They sent a letter saying they couldnt take premium due to outdated bank details then took it anyway!! as the bank allowed them to do so. Kept trying to contact them still couldnt get through so raised a complaint and it has currently taken nearly 2 months to get anywhere close to getting a refund and now they are demanding further details. They use confusing and bu... Reviewed on: 16th November 2023

Absolutely rubbish when making a claim

Absolutely rubbish when making a claim. I phoned 3rd October 23, to make a claim about a leak as I had the accidental cover, a plumber came round and said he will order the parts and fix it the following week. Almost 4 weeks have gone by and many calls later to complain about the service and no fix. They sent a plumber in 26/10/23 and "stated its a new job and not authorised to fix it! What is going on with Saga!! need help please- totally rubbish service for the over 50's!! ... Reviewed on: 26th October 2023

Unjustified increase in premium

Renewal premium more than double. Rang and said I have just one question. The call handler clearly knew what I was about to say. Could not give me and reasonable answer about such a massive increase. Found it cheaper elsewhere BUT the real joke was that they used the same insurer as Saga! This was for landlord insurance and early this year Saga did the same with my car renewal! Reviewed on: 26th October 2023

Day three of Home Emergency and still not fixed.

My kitchen sink was blocked and I phoned Saga Home Emergency. I got through to the number listed but was then put on hold for ages to report problem. Within six hours a plumber arrived, but despite working on the sink for 3 hours, he could not resolve the problem. Day 2: hearing nothing from Saga, phoned, 45 mns wait to speak to someone. They said they would send plumber back and asked me to hold on whilst they checked something. Call cut off. I phoned back three hours later: 54... Reviewed on: 25th October 2023

Incompetent

Horrendous increase + 3 times increase. Customer service - polite but less than helpful. I paid outright but they still set up a renewed DD. ( fuming). Cancelled. But dubious they have implemented the cancellation! I do NOT recommend Saga! Reviewed on: 18th October 2023

Massively overpriced

Renewal 64% increase to £1200 . ‘Compare the market’ had several quotes of around £200 for similar cover levels. Customer for 13 years and have clearly allowed myself to be ripped off by not changing insurer Reviewed on: 14th October 2023

Appalling service

We had a burst pipe in the roof space 15 December 2022. We told driers needed before any repair work. . No driers installed until 15 March. No plasterers or decorators were able to come until 25 May, after that it 6 weeks before light fittings replaced. Arranged to get carpet quote ourselves and saga to reimburse us 15 July. Work all finished August. Total of 50 phone calls, numerous emails, many unreturned phone calls. Had a letter of apology from Saga for long delay, and overa... Reviewed on: 11th October 2023
