Great service - competitive, responsive and everything is digital

Very competitive, very straightforward and easy to work with, and very responsive. No question or ask was too difficult and they always responded promptly with the needed information. Everything is digital too, which made the whole process so much easier.
Definitely recommend BeatTheBank to others - they are excellent!

By far the easiest and hassle free experience ever! The guys here are top notch, no messing around. They got me an identical policy for €10 cheaper per month with the same insurer. Super quick too. Would highly recommend them.

Highly recommend!

Can’t recommend BTB and Niall highly enough. I used them for mortgage protection and Niall was so friendly and efficient to deal with. I was in the states while trying to get everything sorted and Niall was always straight back to any query I had regardless of the time difference. I also saved around 40% on the quote from my bank!

Easy and quick

Easy application process. Reassuring to get quick response via email and felt like I was dealing with a real person rather than automated responses.

Would highly recommend

Would 100% recommend Beat the bank to anyone. Niall was very helpful and super quick to reply to any questions we had in the live chat. Was so glad I came across their blog post on cohabiting couples (info that wasn't readily available anywhere else) and opted for "Life of another" cover with them as a result. Really great prices too.

Really Helpful & Quick Support

We used Beat the Bank for our Mortgage Protection with Royal London. The whole application process was extremely smooth. Following the establishment of our policy though, found an error in the cover amount and some of the screening criteria (we had answered yes, but the online questionnaire copy said no).
We quickly contacted support and they were amaizngly helpful in liasing with Royal London and getting everything ammended for us.
Really appreciate and would recommend this service to anyone!

Excellent

Can not recommend this company highly enough. Whole process was simple and straightforward. Unfortunately we created our own problems by not having the exact same name as what was on our loan offer (Tim Vs Timothy), but Niall and his team at Beat The Bank went out of their way to rectify it once highlighted by the bank to us.
They are one of only a handful of companies I can recommend after going through the whole process of buying a house.
