Tesco Bank Home Insurance reviews (112)

Review of the Tesco Bank, Home Insurance:

Good renewal price

4
As it's my first renewal for home insurance I thought I might have to play the renewal price game, but Tesco gave me a fair renewal price in line with any other company, and the renewal was painless. I've knocked a point off as last year's payment credit card had expired, and I have to call to update to a new one as opposed to just entering online which is mildly annoying.

Thiefs

Was offered £3,500 for damage to my home didn’t accept as I knew it would cost me double this. I sent estimate of costs which was actually double the offer then was told because my parquet was glued it’ll cause damage to the building (I’m on ground floor) and I’m not entitled to a penny. How can you offer £3,500 then say no you’re not covered. Glue will cause damage to building!!!!!!! Tesco home insurance should be investigated, I’m taking this to the media.

Emergency cover useless

1
The phones are not answered in an emergency . The 3rd party repairs are not friendly .my gas was cut off out of spite rarther than spend 10mins to fix the problem. Cannot get my heating back on as no one answers the phone . Avoid at all costs Reviewed on: 1st November 2023

Awful

1
Worst customer service I have ever experienced from a financial institute / supplier / insurance company. Everytime you phone up expect to be on hold for at least 45 mins. Expect to be transferred, and put on hold again, during every call. The emergency cover they sell is provided through another party - took 3 months to fix and emergency leak in my home. Staff do not listen and are intent on talking over you resulting in false information / actions. Do not touch! Reviewed on: 18th October 2023

Value for money

5
The right price for the right cover Reviewed on: 12th October 2023

Renewal notification and pricing

1
Zero reminder of impending renewal. Premium had doubled. No explanation. Clearly seeking to exploit laziness or otherwise of customers. I know all insurance firms do this, but the brazen attempt to quietly rip me (and I presume plenty of others) off is enough to warrant this review Reviewed on: 12th October 2023

When you have a claim Tesco pushed the claim to SBS claim management

1
SBS is useless. Know nothing much except talking down on customer. We are Tesco's customer NOT YOUR ENERMY! Reviewed on: 28th September 2023

Read the email. Answer the phone.

2
Still waiting for them to respond to my email which I sent because I couldn't get through on the phone! Reviewed on: 6th September 2023

great provider

5
My home insurence quote came up to £43.74 per year which is a bargain price for £85K cover (75K content & 10K valuables). Application process was simple and straightforward. Took less than 5 minutes to get a quote, complete the application and receive a confirmation. Great experience. Reviewed on: 23rd August 2023

Great Cover, Value & Service

5
