This is one of the worst company ever
This is one of the worst company ever. Do not use this company. I joined last year gave me good price , unlimited call out charges. 1 year renewal was automatic and they put £60 access as I did one call out but never claimed so it’s plenty for that 1 call out even though I didn’t claim it’s still a claim. Premium nearly doubled. Absolute nightmare company. Biggest mistake I did to move from British Gas to them.

Good Afternoon Mrs Nackvi,
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with your recent renewal experience.
We’d like to clarify that renewal terms, including premium changes and any applicable excess, are reviewed each year and can vary based on factors such as introductory discounts, previous claims history, and wider market conditions. In your case, the initial price included a significant introductory discount which no longer applied at renewal.
We also sent a renewal invitation in advance, which outlined the updated terms, giving you the opportunity to review or make changes before the policy renewed.
We appreciate that you raised your concerns with us directly, and we’re pleased we were able to reach a resolution by removing the excess, applying a loyalty discount, and agreeing a revised premium that you were happy to proceed with. We also ensured auto-renewal was switched off in line with your request.
We’re always happy to review policies and discuss options to suit individual needs, and we’re glad we could find a suitable outcome in this instance.
If there’s anything further you’d like to discuss, please don’t hesitate to contact our team.
Kind Regards,
Customer Relations.

This company is not even worth a rating…
This company is not even worth a rating but I cannot go lower than 1 star. I bought the highest insurance cover (supercharged complete cover) with this company on the 1st Oct. 2025 paying £297. Today I made the first claim due to my kitchen sink was blocked. They sent in a very young engineer, who admitted himself he is not a qualified drainage engineer. The engineer spent 5 minutes altogether,sucking out the water in the sink with a Wetvac, but the issue was not resolved and said it needs drainage engineer to be in. However, he reported back that he suspected the issue of the blockage is oil and fat caused. Now hea customer support saying to me that as the engineer reported it was oil and fat it is a maintenance issue and I am not covered. That is scandalous as in a kitchen sink, what else do you expect to drain if not some oil and fat from washing up dishes. secondly, the engineer they sent in was not qualified drainage engineer and has not looked anything inside the drainage system, how can his assumed opinion be used as the final diagnosis and conclusion? I will have to take this to FCA for complaint and possibly further if I have to. Lesson to existing and prospective customers: Be aware of what you are paying for with this company and stay clear!

Dear Dr Yuan,
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry for the experience you had when making your claim.
Following a full review of your case, we identified that a drainage specialist was not initially assigned, which meant the cause of the blockage was not properly established before the claim decision was made. As a result, the claim was incorrectly declined at that stage.
We have upheld your complaint and arranged a full reimbursement of £195 for the independent drainage work you arranged. Our team will be in touch to finalise the payment.
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as it has helped us address an issue in our process.
Kind Regards,
Customer Relations.

I have been in touch with customer…
I have been in touch with customer services.The so called service comprises of a few safety checks only,taking around just ten minutes!The engineer told me he was not allowed to open up the boiler cover and that he did not do a service,reconfirmed on his report he left with me and which your customer service has since confirmed as received.The contract clearly shows that a boiler service is due at a cost of £90 so that either this should be honoured or the cost rebates as I have requested on 31 March!.The engineer did say a number of customers he had visited were equally unimpressed. I suggest you need to change your contact terms of you do not intend to properly service boilers configure as this should be carried potentially addition to any other safety checks.

Good morning Mr Mattinson,
Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed with your service.
As outlined in our terms and conditions, the annual boiler service included in your plan is a safety and performance check, not a full strip-down service. During the visit, the engineer carries out a range of checks (such as gas pressure, flue, safety devices, and combustion performance) to ensure the boiler is operating safely and efficiently.
This type of service does not require removing the boiler casing unless necessary, and any additional repairs or maintenance fall outside the scope of the service.
We appreciate your comments and are sorry if expectations differed. Please contact our customer service team if you’d like us to review this further.
Kind Regards,
Customer Relations.

Steer clear useless
I'm a vulnerable person with a 10 yr old daughter and wife, me and my daughter are vulnerable. They are aware of this it's on my record. We've been with them a few years never a need to use. Rang them a few wks ago because the boiler is making a funny noise it's only 5yrs old and told as heating is working it's fine on the phone. Were told not to worry claims are 24/7 yeah right. We sat up till 3am awaiting a call from an engineer as told by the emergency helpline. Noone got in touch. We rang back this morning, paid our excess which for some reason wasn't requested last night. Again got an apology and told they will look into and get someone to get in touch that was 930 this morning. It's 6pm and still nothing been back in touch same said again and an apology which sorts nothing. Not even an acknowledgement which would of gone a long way by the engineer. So I'm sat in a freezing cold house awaiting 2 operations my daught waiting on one, I'm on crutches with several disabilities left to struggle with noone giving a damn. You know how good a company is when your in this situation and they are dire. If I cancelled my direct debit they'd be in touch quicker. I dunno what's gunna go on. I very much doubt they even care other than money but I won't be making the same mistake a year steer clear because they are rubbish. I'm patient and I don't expect to click my fingers and something to be done. More engineers should be on hand and an acknowledgement call is literally two minutes. 😡. Just read the reply and it's the first I've heard from it however am grateful of how you have dealt with that so thank you for the refund. I haven't received as I write this but I'm sure you will be in touch. Thank you for dealing with so fast and putting a bit of trust back there again.

We understand this fell below the standard of service you should expect from us, and we are truly sorry for the distress and inconvenience caused.
If you would like to discuss this further, please contact us directly and we will be happy to assist.

Good Morning Mark,
Thank you for your feedback.
We understand your concern regarding the renewal of your policy. We do have a process in place for customers who have opted out of auto-renewal, which prevents the policy from renewing automatically.
By default, our policies are set to renew automatically unless the auto-renewal option has been deselected. If this setting remains active, the policy will follow the standard renewal process. We also send renewal notifications approximately 26 days prior to the renewal date to ensure customers have plenty of notice and time to make any changes.
We appreciate you choosing to continue your policy with us, and we will of course be happy to assist if you would like us to review or confirm your auto-renewal preferences for next year.
Kind Regards,
Customer Relations.
Not the best engineer
The engineer left the boiler turned off so I had no hot water next morning, I don't think he had even seen the boiler I had as he didn't even know how to light up the display

Hi Gladys,
Thanks for your feedback, and we’re really sorry for the inconvenience caused.
We’ve looked into this with the engineer’s company, and there were no issues noted on their end. However, we understand from speaking with you that the boiler had been switched off and you had to turn it back on the following morning when you noticed there was no hot water.
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and apologise again for the disruption. Your feedback is really important to us, and we’ll make sure this is followed up internally to help prevent this happening again.
Kind regards,
Nazeera.
