Good price and easy to buy BUT Good price and easy to buy BUT Sainsbury’s are not doing house insurance in the future (hence why a low “recommend to others” score. Reviewed on: 6th September 2025

Sainsburys Bank Home insurance reviews (102)

Badly organised and incompetant. Avoid them.

1
Took out insurance for home and contents. Never got documentation. Chased it and still didn't. Chased them again and got confirmation but incomplete documents. If they cant get that right how can one have confidence in them if one makes claim. I cancelled and am still waiting for a refund. Reviewed on: 8th September 2017
