They treat their customers poorly. When you want to make a claim, it's handled by a third party company that doesn't have any information about the policy. What makes it even worse that you have to agree to new terms and conditions with the claims company when you want to make a claim.

My terrace House in Fulham burnt down… My terrace House in Fulham burnt down in July 2022. Insurer: Policy Expert (Subsiduary of QMetric Group) Claims Handler: Trinity Claims Damage has been estimated by chartered surveyors @ £350,000/£500,000 The insurance company is duty bound to either re-instate or provide cash equivalent. They are also duty bound to find alternative accommodation or at least pay for alternative accommodation. I had a 4 bedroom, 1,400 sq ft house and had to move to a 500 sq ft, one bedroom flat with two growing children, a cat and a dog. Trinity Claims have been stonewalling for 20 months. Insurance Company has, through Trinity Claims: - 1. Carried out sub-standard repairs to the roof 2. Offered £26,595.19 in final settlement 3. Not paid the last 9 months of rent for alternative (inferior standard accommodation) t 4. I have spent over £60,000.00 in legal fees trying to negóciate with them and it’s just impossible I can no longer afford to be out of my house and paying really expensive rent. My children having recently lost their father, now lost their home. Please could the press or someone out there help me to expose this sad story.

Took 5 weeks to repair my car during which time no courtesy car was provided despite having paid extra for it. Rude staff, incompetence galore throughout BUT extremely good at passing the buck. Worst company ever! Stay well clear.

TELEPHONED POLICY EXPERT A WEEK BEFORE MY RENEWAL AND EXPLAINED MY HUSBAND HAD A CCJ WOULD THIS MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND THEY SAID WE CANT RENEW ON THOSE TERMS, SO I ASKED THE POLICY TO BE LAPSED OFF AND THE LADY SAID OK. A WEEK LATER THEY TOOK MY MONEY OUT OF THE BANK EVEN THOUGH THEY WOULD NOT INSURE ME AND HAVING SENT THEM LETTERS AND SPOKE TO THEM ON LIVE CHAT HAVE STILL NOT GAVE ME MY MONEY BACK. SO BEWARE ONCE THEY HAVE GOT YOUR BANK DETAILS WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AT RENEWAL EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE ASKED THEM NOT TOO.

Worst company I ever know. My toile cistern cracked on their own in the middle of the night, I made the claim, they say I need to wait 2 weeks for someone to come and see it, that means 2 weeks without toilet or repair myself. I said repair myself and send the invoice and now they said they not paying because the toilet just crack on his own!!! To be paid you need to broke it yourself?To many years with this company and when you have a genuine claim don't pay you. Disgusting I will cancel my policy tomorrow

Hello Patricia, Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review. After speaking with our claims team, we understand that you logged a claim for accidental damage to your toilet. However, as you were unsure of what caused the crack, there was no identifiable cause so we were unable to cover this. We understand that a claim decline can be disappointing, however, we're only able to cover claims that fall within the limits of your policy.

Home insurance. Never use this insurance. I have a home insurance policy. Building and contents. In July this year watter dropping to my bed room from ceiling. Upon tracing the leakage i found there are some dent on my valley this caused water fall on my loft insulation from there to my bed room. there were bad wind and rain on July this happened on period. I contacted policy expert. Policy expert is not dealing the claim but some other company called Trinity doing for them. Upin making the claim trinity rejected the claim saying they can't realise this is happened due to the wind. Who climb on the top of the roof to make a dent on the Valley if it is not storm? Dent is not a wear and tear. Most funny thing is that they declined my claim before their survivor visiting the house. When their survivor visited he did not climbed in the roof to see the damage. He too said the same what Policy expert said prior. My advise is to not buy this policy. Go for a reputed company like LV, Halifax etc. Ok to buy if you want an insurance for name sake. But when have to make a claim, they will reject all way. Other concern, looking on to the google reviews, many people mentioned that they are forcing for to write positive reviews. Have to doubt of all these ****s Date of experience: 14 October 2023

Hello Regi, Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review. After speaking with Trinity, we understand that you contacted our Home Emergency team in September about an incident from July. Unfortunately, they couldn't approve it because your policy didn't have cover for roof damage. There was a delay in arranging a surveyor to attend your property as you could only do weekends. However, when the surveyor attended on November 14th, they found water damage in the loft area, worn-out roof felt, and possibly porous tiles. Your roofer confirmed these issues and suggested replacing the whole valley to fix them. He also mentioned that these problems are from regular wear and tear, not a one-time incident. We understand that you've disputed the decline, and our claims team are currently reviewing your case. They'll be in touch with their final position on this matter in due course. If there's anything else we can help you with in the meantime, please get in touch at homereviews@policyexpert.co.uk. Thanks, Nisha

Dear Manger, I have home emergency cover with a policy expert. My Policy Number is : TRN-354-1282-002024729 My boiler is not working, the thermostat has a fault. I called customer service on Friday 1st Dec. at 6pm to report the claim. Advisor told me that she is going to open the portal and email me to send my boiler service copy. She has not done any of them. I waited till 11pm. I Called back after a 60 min wait and spoke with the advisor and sent my boiler service copy twice and confirmed with the advisor that they have received it. He advised me that a gas safe engineer or contractor will call you in the morning. Saturday 2nd Dec. morning no one called. I called again after a 40 min wait, and the advisor told me that my boiler service copy is not attached and the job is not put forward. Night staff has not attached correctly. He said he is going to attach it and send a message to the engineer and the engineer will call. Another lack of training.No one called. After calling 2 times again on Saturday, the gas engineer attended the property at 12 midnight and told me that he needed to order a part and come back on Sunday to fix it. He put emergency heating that only works for 20 min and set a timer but it didn't work. I called Sunday 3rd Dec. morning at 7.55am to report that the heating was not working on the timer that the engineer set it up and requested to send it again to fix it. Your advisor emailed and called them but no one turned up. Waited all day I called again on Monday 4th Dec. morning and spoke to the advisor, they told me engineers are going to come in a few hours. No one came. Another lie. I called again at 3pm after a long wait and the same story. I called again at 7pm and 11pm. Every time they said that Engineer will be with you shortly with part. I called Tuesday 5th Dec. twice after a long wait and your advisor said that they will call an engineer and sent an email to them to come ASAP. Not happened. No reply. I received a voicemail at 3pm saying that my part is not covered and the quote has been declined. I was shocked and tried to call straight away but after 56 min wait the call disconnected by your advisor. I received a call from the policy expert customer service Manager and she said she is going to speak with the contractor and sort out and call me back. No one called. I called at 7pm and your advisor told me that someone is coming soon. On 6th Dec. I have received another voicemail that my part is not covered and they cant do anything. I called straight away after 1 hr wait and spoke with the team, they told me that in the system it says it's not covered and she gave me another number 0330 0600 681 to speak to. I have called that number and spoken with your advisor for nearly 1 hr and 28 min. After she called the internal team she said she can't do anything. Part is not covered and cant be replaced but in policy it doesn't say anything. Thermostat is part of the boiler and that needs to be replaced asap. I am really stressed and broken by the service you provided and I have been receiving from the last 6 days. Few Points: Why the engineer lied and said that heating is working on Saturday night. Your advisor is telling me lies and false promises. I have got all the call records and timing which I have made from the last 6 days. My house has been freezing cold for the last 6 days. No heating at all I am using an electrical heater and my bill is going high. If it's not resolved soon, I am going to take legal action. Thanks Hasit Shah 07868711435

i have a claim going through. the only way you can make any contact to discuss any issues is through the portal. it is really irritating. There is no sense of urgency you just get fobbed off with a lowball cash settlement or put into the hands of their own surveyors and contractors with lead times in excess of 6/8 weeks and that's just to get something moving. customer services is absolutely diabolical. put through on the phone got told they couldn't hear me and to ring back,hey presto they've all gone home, how convenient. i definitely won't be recommending or renewing ever again. oh and be aware people what you pay this year they will double and some next year. avoid this company

Hello Kevin, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. Having spoken with the claims team, they have confirmed that a contractor has attended the property, and we are waiting for their report so that the works can be authorised and begun. We aim to have contractors out to the property as swiftly as possible but lead times can be affected by multiple factors. Your case has been escalated for approval and if there is anything else we can help with, we are available at homereviews@policyexpert.co.uk. Thanks, Jessica

Hello Martin, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. Having reached out to our claims team at Trinity, they confirmed a claim was logged for storm damage. When the surveyor attended, their report advised the visible damage was consistent with an ongoing failure due to material fatigue and failure of the fixings which was not consistent with a one-off event. As a result, there was no insured peril, and the claim was declined. Trinity also confirmed that you disputed the outcome and submitted a formal complaint. This complaint was not upheld, and a response letter was issued. We appreciate this may not have been the desired outcome, however we hope you can understand we are only able to cover claims that fall within the policy limits.

Hello, Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. When it comes to your policy documents, your schedule contains an outline of the cover provided. This outline will state what level of cover you have chosen, it will state if you have chosen to add an element of accidental damage cover, it will show named policyholders, and so on. Your policy wording document, however, specifically goes through your policy in far more detail. Having listened to your recent call with us, you asked to check if a certain event was covered. You also confirmed you weren't aware of how the event happened. The agent you spoke to outlined the level of cover you had chosen when taking out the policy and that, unfortunately, there was no cover in place for the event you mentioned. Should you require any further assistance, please don't hesitate to get back in touch with us at homereviews@policyexpert.co.uk or via any of the channels displayed under the 'contact us' section of our website.

It's true that Policy Expert are quite easy and inexpensive when paying for their Insurance Policy as I have done for three years but don't have an accident claim My computer was damaged in February this year and following details of evidence by email almost too many to count I was met by nothing but excuses to meet my modest claim After five months of complaint by phone and email I called on the assistance of the Financial and Insurance Ombudsman Service Within a few days this had the desired effect and a week later a cheque to meet part of the claim However to date although they had agreed to pay £46 "goodwill money" this has not been paid Running true to form there is an excuse. Take my advice don't touch this Company it's nothing but trouble

Hello David, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. Having spoken to our claims team at Trinity about your case, they confirmed a claim was logged on February 13th relating to a damaged computer that you had already gotten replaced. The relevant documents were posted to, and received by our claims team. After this, they began discussing the claim with you. As you preferred not to use the portal for communicating, emails and calls were the only other options. As you had already replaced the computer, Trinity asked for you to provide images and a report from the company that you had taken it to. This request was made on the 03rd of March but Trinity confirmed they have not yet received this information. Trinity advised us they settled the claim based on a like-for-like replacement plus a gesture of goodwill. This was discussed, and accepted by you, over the phone. As you have raised a complaint with the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) we can confirm that any final decision rests with them and we will fully co-operate with their review or decision. Should you require any further assistance, please don't hesitate to get back in touch with us at homereviews@policyexpert.co.uk or via any of the channels displayed under the 'contact us' section of our website.

Never have I had such a disappointing experience with an insurance company ever in my life! I had my car insured with them and on this one occasion, a lady backed into my car in a car park. She admitted full responsibility and was very apologetic. We reported the claim to PE and after a long 4 months of the lady then retracting her claims of responsibility, my supposed insurance company concluded it was my fault and made me pay £350 excess and then had the audacity to terminate my policy!! I feel completely let down by a company that is supposed to have your interests in hand. My husband and I were witnesses to the incident and she was alone yet her insurance company was obviously much more competent and able to run rings around Policy (not so) expert. If I were to give you any sound advice, AVOID at all costs unless you want to be screwed over.
