Given the choice, I'd never claim on my insurance, ever. It's one of those annoying things that I see sucking up cash from my bank account every month, but really I don't want to give it any further thought. This year however, it's been at the forefront of my mind. After 3 claims in twelve months, I'm glad 'm with Royal & SunAlliance (RSA). I didn't select them myself, I'd gone through brokers chasing the best deal. Cheap doesn't always equal good, but RSA were very competitive for the cover I wanted. Back in the spring my garage was broken into and my bikes stolen. One phone call to RSA to ... more

Call me lucky or jammy or whatever, but before last year I had never made a claim on any type of insurance.

My husband and I bought our house in October 2001 and whilst applying for our mortgage we decided to take out our buildings and contents insurance with HSBC so that we had payments going to one company rather than several. We were told that Royal & Sun Alliance ... more

We have had our Car, House and Contents insurance with Royal and Sun Alliance for some years now (originally with The Insurance Service). During this time all the paperwork has always been correct and arrived on time and the staff have always been very polite and helpful when we have spoke to any of them on the telephone. The real test for any insurance company is when a claim is made. We were recently unfortunate enough to have our youngest son’s BMX bike stolen from our garden shed in the early hours of a Tuesday morning. Later in the morning I informed both the Police and the ... more
