Review of the Saga, Home Insurance:

Avoid this company at all costs

My current home insurance cost £384 with Saga. Initially I was pleased. I made no claims at all this year. 4 years ago with another insurer I had had to make a claim when my oil tank split. This was resolved with no problems and was on my record when I joined Saga this year. This year my renewal quote was £3750!! Why? Reviewed on: 10th September 2024

Renewing house insurance

Saga (and their underwriters) should be avoided. They declined to renew our house insurance on the day it expired having previously bombarded us with emails with questions about the property, many of which were repeated and some of which were imposible to answer. Even the Saga agents I spoke to were embarrassed. Reviewed on: 27th November 2024

Avoid Avoid

When making a claim, I was met with an Irish team of arrogant, passive aggressive people who all they done was put up barriers regarding my claim I would not recommend SAGA to anyone. In fact I would say avoid at all cost. Reviewed on: 15th November 2024

Saga by name, Saga by nature.

Saga by name, Saga by nature. If I could give Saga 0 stars, I would. My buildings and car insurance renewal quotes have been absolutely extortionate - the latter being double the previous year, and significantly more than double the nearest quote on a comparison website. In terms of customer service, waiting times to get through by phone are outrageous - on one occasion alone I spent more than an hour only on hold. Having spoken to a customer services advisor about my motor insurance quote, and not receiving a competitive offer, I said I would cancel the policy online. Rather than telling me that was impossible, she let me ring off. Guess what - no means of cancelling online, and the website is not fully functioning, and so I am sitting again on hold, frittering away another hour of my life that I'll never get back, and listening to the repeated message reminding callers to have respect. Frankly, at my age, every hour counts, and, if you are a pensioner - as is Saga's demographic - trust me, you can't afford to insure with them. And life's too short. Reviewed on: 15th August 2024

Very poor customer service and communication.

A simple information request has so far taken 14 days during which time the same information, already provided, has been repeatedly requested by them. Obviously the emails we have sent to them are not being read even though they are responding to them. If you ring customer service you are told the wait time is about 15 minutes but I have waited over 30 minutes on three occasions without receiving a reply. Whilst waiting you are told their staff are ‘very busy’ and ‘hardworking’ which I think is usually called ‘having a job’. You are also requested to treat staff with respect which is quite insulting as a) I always treat people with respect and they have no right to assume otherwise b) no one answers anyway and c) possibly the reason some people are rude to their staff is the company’s fault as people are frustrated by the amount of time they have to wait.
