TrustpilotWould give zero stars if I could
Terrible. Would give them zero stars if I could! Recently received a letter telling me that my monthly premiums for income protection insurance are being increased from £27 per month, to more than double- £57! I’ve been paying this since long before anybody even knew about a Covid outbreak and I’ve never claimed. For an insurance company to take advantage of vulnerable people who are scared to death to lose their jobs in this current climate, is simply disgusting. Go with a reputable and trustworthy insurer instead!

TrustpilotDisappointing, avoid, your on your own!
Really disappointing experience leaving us completely overwhelmed. Reported the bath waste failed sending an entire bath of water down into the living room........there response is that they dont cover the plumbing costs!!!.....only the damage to the living room. Offered no assistance with fixing the problem, we now have to sort the issue ourselves and cover the costs of all plumbing!! What is the point of insurance if it doesnt cover the cost? Really upset at being left with the problem when we are so busy and the cost now is my problem too.Avoid!

I have been waiting for my car to be fixed, claiming on my own insurance since 7th of July 2020 - this was due to a theft of the vehicle. The company keep trying to stall the process by saying they will get the person dealing with this to call back or email. This has been since July. They have been out to take pictures but the cars not in a state to be driven. The company also cancelled my insurance in august for an unknown reason. They also have all the documents for my car including the car receipts and v5 documents. The car is a £14,500 car and they are stalling the claim as much as they can. I will be taking legal advice about this - especially having a email from the company asking for sensitive infomation including national insurance numbers.

TrustpilotUpdate on prior post
Update - Adil did a good job but the promised phone call from the garage never materialised. Not so sure that the garage understands Customer service in the same way that Covea / Saga do… might be time to review the list of repair centres as that is 9 days now with no direct contact from the garage to explain what is happening.

TrustpilotPoor Communication
I am disappointed with the lack of communication I have received surrounding my claim that was made over 3 weeks ago as there is still no resolution and I have followed up twice in that time with no response. Whilst making my claim it became apparent that the policy was approved incorrectly so they changed it without telling me. It has been changed back but still no phone call to confirm anything. I am not happy about writing this review as I working customer service but I have to be honest about my experience.

TrustpilotNo star treatment, Covea.
No star treatment.My Daughter bought her first insurance policy which I paid for on my credit card as a one off, due to the cost. she insured with Covea. While insured she wrote her car off in an accident and her car was transferred after payout to Covea. About 4 months later my credit card was debited without either myself or daughter having any pre notice, for a renewal of the policy on the car which was previously written off and transferred to Covea, in other words Covea had allowed me to fund an insurance policy with them on a car they owned. Iam now attempting to get a refund. They insure a car with a policy that no longer can provide cover and does it in my daughters name and makes me pay for it. This is gross cheek and failure to check their own records.

These people are thieves. They are in the process of refusing my claim on a Provident Insurance policy. My wife was on my insurance and claimed on a third party driver who hit her car a year before I took out insurance with them. My claim is also on a third party as I wasn't even in the car and the driver who hit me was insured. Thanks a bunch Covea and Provident insurance.

Had no problems with covea insurance after my car was hit when parked. They dealt with courtesy car, and third party insurers on my behalf. Any query I had during this time was dealt with swiftly. As third party insurers of the other vehicle did not admit liability, even although the accident was no fault on my part, covea settled very soon afterwards. Only criticism would be it's unfair I have to wait for excess to be paid back when I had to purchase another vehicle. My vehicle was parked outside unnocupied , they drove into my bonnet, reversed off , drove away and was later arrested. Yet still I'm at a loss for this. Truly not fair at all.

They deliberately did not send letters until too late, I got a letter dated the 17th from them saying if they didn't hear from me in 7days then they'd suspend the claim. I got the letter on the 25th, exactly one day too late, far too convenient and I believe on purpose.

TrustpilotCovea - complete shambles
What a complete disaster this company are. Worst customer experience i have ever had.I had my landlord insurance with them. Previous tenants caused quite a bit of damage before leaving. Advised Covea in March. After repeated chasing, they finally attended the property.The loss adjuster advised me to claim for loss of rent as the property was uninhabitable.Sent photos, tenancy agreement and lots of other info in support of the claim as requested. Kept chasing them for an answer for months. Nobody would come back to me. They eventually asked me to send the majority of this information again. I did this and again had to chase them repeatedly. They then sent another loss adjuster out. Months later they have said they will only pay a tiny fraction of the claim and not pay any loss of rent (despite them advising me originally to include this)In total they have taken 8 months to arrive at this conclusion. Why could they have not told me this months ago and I would have got on with the repair works (albeit begrudgingly with only minimal support from the insurers) but at least I would have tried to get the property back to a habitable state and re-let.As it is, I am left with minimal support towards the costs and no support for 8 months loss of rent.I have complained to them and they have acknowledged there is validity in my complaint but not offered any compensation. I am now faced with legal costs to challenge this disaster of a company.Please, do not go near them. Complete shambles.
