Insurance for a vacant property…

I was needing insurance for a property that is empty and I found the advisor at Towergate to be knowledgeable, helpful, polite and patient as he guided me through the process. If you find yourself in this position Towergate will guide you through the process.

The worst company I have ever dealt…

The worst company I have ever dealt with.
Customer service was poor I was waiting for a quote for over a week, I spoke to a lovely lady after having had one male agent cut the call on me and she had told me that the person who was dealing with my quote had been dismissed. Clearly management doesn’t know how to allocate work load.
I spoke to two team leaders who were no help in sorting my issue and they were dismissive.
In my opinion if you don’t have enough staff don’t get rid of them.

I will be taking my business elsewhere.

Email change seem to be an insurmountable problem

Just a simple request to change an e mail address on my account seemed too much for this company to get right. Still waiting for my renewal documents supposedly sent over a week ago.

Using Towergate for empty home insurance

Using Towergate for insurance of an empty home. I'm a complete technophobe and dread these kinds of dealings. Last year when discussed all my needs they made if simple and easy, giving me exactly what I needed.

Today had to do a renewal over the phone. Lucy was the customer service person I dealt with. So nice to deal with people who are clear, friendly and able to clarify everything step by step.

Very pleased with Towergate and would highly recommend them!

Poor experience

Went to renew my static caravan insurance with Towergate on Monday 30/09/24. My initial credit card payment of £148 was declined so I tried it again and got declined a second time. I then tried my debit card and this was also declined. When I checked balances of these accounts I could see 3 pending transactions for £148 for Towergate, meaning that I was unable to access nearly £450 of funds should I have needed to. I contacted Towergate who offered me no explanation as to how their system allowed this payment to be held on 3 occasions and seemed more interested in me paying for my renewal over the phone! I then reinsured my caravan with a different company. It is now Friday 4th October and these transactions are still showing as pending on my accounts which is extremely frustrating! Will not use this company again in the future.

Genuine and Caring

They were very helpful and friendly. My advisor genuinely seemed to care. Unfortunately, just a bit too expensive

Hi Maz, thank you for your review. Great to hear that you had a good experience when speaking to us and it's unfortunate that you found the insurance expensive. As a broker, we are restricted by the premium quoted by insurers and as much as we'd like to be, we can't always be the most competitive in the market. Please don't let the premium quoted this year deter you from getting a quote with us in the future. Many thanks, Towergate Insurance

I’ve had a fantastic experience with Towergate Insurance, specifically with Daniel Cleverdon, who has always gone above and beyond in helping me with my enquiries. Every time I reach out, Daniel is prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful. He ensures that all my questions are addressed and that I receive the best possible service.

The level of care and attention Daniel provides is truly outstanding, and it's the reason I continue to trust Towergate for my insurance needs. Highly recommend both Towergate Insurance and Daniel for their excellent customer service!
