Fantastic Customer Service

I recently moved home and as I rent needed to arrange just contents insurance and my landlord had to arrange cover for tenants,As I had my own items stored in the garage and my landlord had some of his items stored in there we decided to contact Swinton direct.They were fantastic and dealt with us both individually ensuring that we were covered for each of our items and ensured we understood the policy.

v helpful company in finding the best insurance rates through their brokers and will give a discount to match other offers Reviewed on: 28th March 2016

Unbelievable fees

In 2014 Swinton wanted to charge me £50 cancellation fee on a policy that had only cost me £60 and only had 7 days left to run. What a joke. I got it back after arguing with them but I won't ever use them again, even if they are the cheapest. Reviewed on: 6th March 2016

Didn't feel like the person had knowledge of the product

Felt as if she was really literally just reading off a script. She was very nice but it felt really a bit impersonal. It was my first time buying house insurance and just felt a bit like I wasn't getting genuine advice, more like scripted words Reviewed on: 5th March 2016

Great experience with Swinton

I have been a customer with Swinton Home Insurance for the past 15 years. At one point, I had a growing crack on one of my walls and one of their contractors came and fixed the problem to the highest possible standard. Every year, before my cover runs out I receive a friendly call from Swinton offering me a quote. Every time I negotiate them and they reduce the price and offer me £20 cash back if I pay my insurance quickly. Reviewed on: 24th December 2015

Hi I like my local branch as very helpful but not as helpful over the phone

I have had insurance with Swinton for a couple of years all was good. How ever have now changed as found cheaper but the 2 years I was there I had good experience with them all a can say go in branch as help mor face to face Reviewed on: 8th November 2015

Consistently good prices and service

I look after the home insurance for my elderly mother ann we have used Swinton for the past 5 years. Their renewal quotes are competitive, and their customer service excellent, which we had to find out the hard way after a burglary in 2012. The way it was handled was superb, and we received a pay-out within a fortnight. Reviewed on: 7th November 2015

Very Helpful

I find my local Swintons branch to be very helpful. It's nice to be able to talk to someone face to face about my insurance needs rather than dealing with a call centre. It's also nice to be able to speak to the same person every time and develop a relationship with them rather than speaking to someone different every time. Each year they always find me the best quote and cover. I'm very happy to use them and I can't see myself switching away from them. Reviewed on: 25th August 2015

HSBC

I find my local HSBC branch to be very good. The staff always let me know about knew offers that I can take advantage of and I always receive a warm welcome in branch. The queues in the branch are never horrendous like they are in some banks. They've got some good deals on at the moment with their Advance account. I've been with them for 25 years and I can't ever see myself switching away from them. Reviewed on: 25th August 2015

helpful and affordable

having been with them a couple of years for home and contents they constantly make sure you get the best price and if their price is over other competitors they will generally give you a discount to match it one way or another. Reviewed on: 10th August 2015
