Checked a few before going with them

Looked at a few sites before settling on this one, and the quote was the cheapest for my van cover by a decent margin. Took maybe twenty minutes to set it up on the laptop. Documents came through the same day and everything looked right.

Been with them since uni

Been with them since I was at uni, so going on about fifteen years now. First policy was for my flat contents and I've just kept renewing it as my life's changed, the house, a baby, now the kids. Never had to claim so can't speak to that side of it, but every year the renewal email turns up on time and the cover's still what I need. Quick to update details online when something changes.

compared a few before picking them

Compared them against a couple of the big comparison sites before I went with these, and they came out a fair bit cheaper for my van cover than the others I'd looked at. The quote page was clear about what was included and what wasn't, which I liked. Signing up took about ten minutes on my laptop. Documents came through to my email straight away and I had cover that afternoon. Nothing I'd change.

Got my student cover

Got my contents cover for uni sorted on my phone during a break between lectures, dead easy. Put in my flat details, picked the level of cover I wanted and paid, and the docs were in my inbox before I'd got back to my desk. The price was mega cheap for a student so I'm well chuffed.

Got my travel cover

Got travel insurance through the site for a week in Spain. Bought it the night before I flew, the app let me add my details quick and the certificate popped up in my emails before I'd even left the flat. Really easy, would do again.

quick and sorted

Got my home insurance sorted from my phone while waiting for the kids to finish their tea. The quote tool remembered my postcode and the price came out sensible. Documents were in my email within a couple of minutes and I could download them straight to my phone. Really happy with it, very quick.

needed cover for a new job

Started a new job that needed me to have my own cover for the van, so I sorted it on my lunch break. Quote was quick and the payment went through first time. Policy docs arrived by email while I was still eating my sandwich. Done.

Stayed with them for years

Been with these people for a good few years now and I've had no cause to move. My motor cover renews each spring without fuss and the reminders come with plenty of notice. When I had a windscreen crack last year the claim was handled properly and the replacement was booked quickly.

sound and simple

They are the only insurer I have stayed with for a long stretch, and I have no reason to look elsewhere. Pet cover for our dog has been reliable and the vet bills were reimbursed within the week. Plain and simple, which is how I like it.

Better than comparison sites

Compared this against a couple of the comparison sites and the quote came out cheaper on here for the same cover, which surprised me. Setting up the policy took about ten minutes and the email with my documents arrived right away. Nothing to complain about so far.

cheapest for what I needed

The quote for my caravan cover was the lowest I could find once I'd checked a few, and the cover itself does what I need. Renewal reminder came a month before the date so I didn't end up without it. I paid monthly which spreads the cost. Good value for an older caravan that doesn't get used much.

Way better than my last one

Switched to them from my old insurer and honestly the difference is wild, my old provider kept hiking the price every year while this one has stayed the same. The app shows my policy and my no claims in one place which is so handy. I've not had to actually claim yet but the chat support answered my questions in about two minutes when I asked about adding a named driver. Feel like I finally found the one.

really pleased with them

Would definitely go back to them, it was my first time buying cover through them and it went smoothly. I got a quote in a few minutes, the policy documents landed in my inbox straight after I paid, and the cover started the day I wanted. Easy.

Took out my travel cover online

I took out a single trip policy for my sister's wedding in Portugal, and I must admit I was rather nervous about doing it online. The process was straightforward and the policy documents arrived in my inbox within minutes. Should I ever need to make a claim I'm told the team is very helpful, though I hope I shan't have to find out.

needed cover for my caravan

I needed cover for my caravan after the old policy lapsed, and I was grateful for a clear quote that explained the terms properly. The sign-up was simple enough to manage on my own, and the paperwork came through by post within the week as I'd asked. I'm content with the arrangement.
