So far so good

So far so good! I love the concept of Locket and found the onboarding process simple and easy. I very much appreciated the personalised video from Helen welcoming me to locket.

A breath of fresh air

After being ripped off by my previous insurance company and my premium going up 3 fold, Locket was a breath of fresh air - competitively priced and with a simple sign up process which asked simple, relevant questions. Customer service was great too - a question I had about the new Scottish smoke alarm legislation was answered promptly and helpfully.

The true test of an insurance company is what happens when you make a claim and what happens to your premium after making a claim. I haven't had to make a claim with Locket, so I can't speak to this, but I'm cautiously optimistic given the experience so far.

Locket's policies are month by month, so there's no lock in and if they ever fail to live up to expectations it won't be hard to switch straight away. Not that I relish that thought, unless the rest of the industry has caught up with Locket's example.

Hey Chris,

Thanks for taking the time to give us your feedback. Despite the name change, we'd like to think we're the same people now as we were back then. We'd love to receive some background info from you to rectify the situation sharpish.

Would you mind emailing us at hi@locket.insure explaining what's happened, and then one of our team will get on it the moment your message comes through.

We look forward to getting this sorted for you.

All the best,
The Locket Team

You ask a question they answer it

You ask a question they answer it. Even if its not what you want to hear. No BS, upfront, simple and human. OK they dont cater for every single smart device. But just tell them and they look into it. About to get involved with the insiders programme and have every faith it will be great.

I thought it was great

I thought it was great, it was straight forward and easy to do.

I think the insider program could do with moving quicker or letting you know that you can take the insurance out while going through it, I was worried as I cancelled my previous insurance to take part.
But I didn't find out until the end that it was going to take that long and I wasn't informed until I had an email from someone that I could have taken the quote I generated online.
But that was minor other than that it was great.

Great customer service so far

Haven't made a claim yet so I can't speak to that side of things. But so far the customer experience has been excellent. I had some queries on some policy wording changes and it was quickly answered and clarified. All staff seem very responsive and happy to help.
