Halifax レビュー 

Putting in claim over 4 weeks ago. Had 1 email requesting more info. The online form won’t work, live chat not working. Finally got thru to someone who told me to ignore email the claim was being processed. Still heard nothing. I have now employed someone to fix problem but can’t get in touch with anyone to cancel claim. It’s atrocious . If my house had burned down I would have to source everything myself as Halifax haven’t a clue

Each year they put the premium up by 50% nothing changes. I look online and they have the exact same policy for £40 less. I just hate renewing the policy each year, the wasted time, the pointless conversations. Next year I will leave them.

Jade sutcliffe was looking after our claim
Do not fall for this company.made a claim of water leaking through the ceiling.escape of water.denied after providing evidence and all the things were in order.will change the provider as soon as it comes for renewal ..my advice pay little extra and have a peace of mind

Called re plumbing leak. Home Insurance Ultimate Policy says it covers damage/leaks. Called and they said it doesn't cover leaks. Need to contact Emergency Plumbing. Called them but they refused saying it had to be claimed within 48 hrs, but we didn't know where the leak was coming from. Quoted £1200 excess but this not on Policy. We pay £700 a year for a worthless policy.I reported a plumbing leak to our home insurance, which is under the Ultimate Policy that claims to cover damage and leaks. However, I was informed that it does not cover leaks. I then reached out to an emergency plumbing service, but they refused to assist because they said the claim needed to be made within 48 hours. Unfortunately, we weren't able to identify the source of the leak in that time. They quoted an excess of £1,200, but this amount is not stated in our policy. We pay £700 a year for a policy that feels worthless.

I’m giving one star as there is no option for zero stars. Unhelpful staff who blatantly said that the policy document was incorrectly written, meaning that I wasn’t covered. My issue was clearly covered. Awful!!!!

Absolutely disgusting send people from over 2 hours away to then go back to put a quote in came and made the leak worse by over tightening ripped the seal inside. That was the words of the other plumber who works for them and now to be told we did a temporary fix now deal with it yourself 10 years I have wasted my money and not once made a claim till now to be told that send you booklets with false information stating you have the cover but when you come to use it they just keep making excuses after excuses very rude told me not to use the water and will slow the leak

Truly awful, diabolical, had drain collapse under house, required a pipe diversion, took a FULL year to fully complete the work. Customer service does not exist, not ONCE was l called during this time, l had to chase everything, no updates, left without a kitchen or loos in my home for 7 months, definitely would NOT recommend, stress of dealing with Halifax is still causing issues today. Truly truly terrible beyond words.

What went wrong - smashed kitchen work service and glass AEG hob - claim went through on line- but no one fixing or replacement in site 4 weeks later we still can not use the cooker hob or seem to get anyone out to fix the kitchen work service - Halifax are not good home insurance company - what a disappointing experience- still can not talk to anybody - poor show

My experience making a claim with Halifax has been challenging to say the least as per my previous post. After waiting five months, I wrote'a formal complaint and I have to say the guy I dealt with was amazing he looked into my case and eventually I received a settlement. I know the loss adjusters have a job to do and are probably stretched but I believe they were the ones at fault as the communication was dreadful . Whilst I would like to thank halifax for finally reviewing and resolving my complaint i do feel it is important to raise serious concerns regarding the performance and communication of the loss adjusters involved in my case. The lack of response, delays, poor communication caused unnecessary stress during an already difficult situation. Just a word to anyone making a claim. Take pictures of everything even when its challenging. This will help speed up your case .

When you need to make a claim on your insurance policy you will find that for everything it states your covered for it’s a caveat non covered policy clause so it is almost impossible to make a claim. You may as well not have a policy then pay them any money.

After a claim in 2023 & issues re work by contractors Halifax have just left me with all issues raised unresolved . I recently wrote a review on the innovation group which Halifax contracted to work on my claim , now think they’ve enlisted Halifax to pretend to be addressing my concerns .I’m getting text messages from Halifax claiming they’re looking into my complaints 2.5 years too late !!!! No action after all their ignoring emailed complaints,constant calls re poor work from Innovation group etc . They’re a pathetic excuse . Don’t get cover from Halifax they’re a total sham company!!!

How bad are they? So bad. I wouldn't touch this company again if my life depended on it. 38 mins on hold in all parts of the world, and finally spoke to someone who, having spent all that time waiting for, couldn't help me but could sell me another policy. The first person mis gendered me too.

Went with Halifax as felt it was important to be with a reputable company for such a vital policy. How wrong was I !!! the service has been appalling and the settlement offer an embarrassment. No communication without me chasing, avoid at all costs.

I had damage to my roof from a bad storm and high winds, they eventually sent an assessor round to look at it and refused the claim because they said it was wear and tear. The assessor wrote about a problem with a leak on my kitchen ceiling which I don't even have and he never went into the kitchen. He also reported back they I was self employed and they are asking me lots of questions about what I do at home and that my insurance may not be valid. I do have separate business insurance but at no point did he ask me about what I did or the insurance not being valid and I honesty feel like he was obviously snooping and prying into my private affairs. The roof damage has absolutely nothing to do with what i do for a living. I am very upset and feel like my privacy has been violated letting him into my home. I feel the insurance policy is a total waste of time

Paid premiums on home insurance for 5 years. Only claim I put in for storm damage this year. Company walked away and refused the claim. They are no better than scammers. Avoid at all costs as you are wasting your money. If I could give zero stars I would.

The human factor when making a claim is left out of the policy so the technical wording will be used to avoid payment to you

You assume going with a known strong branded company would be the wise choice! you couldn't be any more wrong!! Avoid this sham of a company! will instruct arrogant, rude, poor time keeping third party contractors to pick fault with any claim . Like for like clearly isnt what you assume when taking out a product. Matching items is the one they get you on! absolute joke.

We have been waiting over 4 months for a bathroom leak which destroyed our downstairs bathroom..the halifax staff are always lovely when you speak to them but apparently in our case, its the loss adjuster who should be completing the claim. We have sent emails , telephoned, left messages . Its an absolute disgrace to treat people like this, just leaving us in limbo. I cannot believe how bad the reviews are on this site. Would be interested to hear a halifax response

Don't turn up when they say they will. All done through sub-contractors. Disorganised and chaotic service. Do not recommend.

If I could rate Halifax less than one star I would.
I received a Home insurance renewal letter on 4th January saying my insurance would automatically renew on 6th February unless I contacted them to cancel.
I renewed my insurance online but received absolutely no confirmation by email or post since then. The only thing I did see was that my monthly payments increased in line with the figures they quoted on their renewal notification.
I called them today to try to get my certificate of insurance, having first tried to chat/message Halifax online which was “not available.”
During my call the agent was quite dry and unfriendly and she stated that they do not issue a certificate of insurance. It appears Halifax want to push ALL customers to manage their insurance online and offer no obvious alternative if this is not the customer’s preference or if they cannot access their policy online.
I will make every effort to get a better rated insurance company at next renewal and only hope I do not have any claims or problems with my home during the current year as I have so far had an unsatisfactory experience and read from other reviews on Trustpilot that Halifax customer service is very poorly rated.
