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

Review of the Sainsburys Bank, Home insurance:

Insurance delays

1
After suffering a leak in my home I had to contact Sainsburys insurance 3 times - each time getting a different set of instructions of what to do next. After THREE MONTHS the adjuster came out and told me it was straight forward and that he was going to write up his estimate. Soon after I get an email saying that they are transferring my claim to an investigative adjuster - when asked why, I was told it was because of my Post code which seemingly has a higher number of claims that normal. It is now 8 months since I submitted the claim and the claim is no where near complete. the adjuster has also said that he will only pay for works completed and invoiced which means I am going to have to pay out of pocket and claim the money back. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE Reviewed on: 2nd June 2022

Buying insurance without hassle

Originally buying house insurance online as it worked out cheaper than buying by phone but I had to check a question and contacted by phone. Girl offered to complete the transaction I said it was cheaper online, no problem she let me have it at the online price. Was very pleasant all the way through. Reviewed on: 24th December 2015
