Leisuredays - Royal and Sun Alliance Insurance plc broker

Advantages: Very easy to apply, friendly and efficient staff
Disadvantages: None so far

...This company specialises in insurance for static caravans, lodges and chalets and caravan holiday insurance cover from Royal and Sun Alliance Insurance plc. The company provides extensive cover for all sorts of holiday homes and personal needs. I first heard of this company when the insurance on my caravan was due for renewal. When I first purchased my caravan, the site owners had recommended a company and we had taken out insurance with them the previous year for £213.96. This company had sent us a renewal quote of £254.16. At the same time I had a letter from the caravan park telling us of Leisuredays. Before I could do anything I was contacted by Leisuredays to tell me about the services they could offer and gave me a quote of £134.75. Obviously a lot cheaper! They then sent me a brochure outlining all that we had...

Cheap life insurance

Advantages: Cheap insurance
Disadvantages: None as yet

...I have recently taken out a mortgage on a house and therefore needed to take out life insurance. Having never done this before I decided to shop around. Taking the advice of friends I asked for quotes from Norwich Union as I had been told they were reasonably cheap. Having amassed a collection of quotes I found that yes they were able to offer the cheapest service for me. That is until I read that Tesco had started offering Life Insurance services too. Their Life Insurance is underwritten by Norwich Union and offers a 16 per cent discount on the Norwich Union prices. So basically you get the same product but cheaper. The lowest monthly charge is 5 pounds so if you can find cheaper than that then you are doing well but I found that this was a pound or so cheaper than the other companies I contacted....

HSBC insurance provided by Royal & Sun Alliance

Advantages: Reasonably priced premiums
Disadvantages: Long time to settle claim

...Having read other reviews about this company it seems I'm the only one who's had difficulty with them but we all take the rough with the smooth so here goes!! Royal & Sun Alliance are a well known insurance provider, they are probably best known for their home and car insurance but if anything is 'insurable' I'm told they insure it. 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 were the providers and the premium was £28 pcm, having recently shopped around for quotes we knew that this was a competitive quote and our bank set everything up for us. In October 2002 I went on a trip to Belgium with my family. I returned...

Get Insured For Free

Advantages: No action needed once signed up
Disadvantages: Extra family members need to be paid for

...Royal & Sun Alliance Travel Insurance for free? Yes, it's true (sort of). I'll explain. If you are a Natwest Bank account holder earning more than £20,000 p.a. (I think), then you qualify for a NatWest Advantage Gold account (including Gold Visa card). Initially, when the £6/month account charge is explained, you might think that you've got better things to do with £72 p.a. than pay a bank any extra. However, there are several benefits which the regular traveller might like to consider:- Free travel insurance for self and partner, underwritten by Royal & Sun Alliance. This pays the account charge in itself. Extra family members can be tacked on as and when for a reasonable fee Then you get commission-free foreign currency transactions. Coupled with other benefits like credit card cover, this starts to cost in for the regular...

The Royal Wee

Advantages: Easy toclean
Disadvantages: My son removes wee defender

...My son?s Royal Throne I bought my son a royal potty from Argos after visiting a friend when he was one year old and Although I considered him to be to young to consider potty training I did want him to have a potty around so that it was a familiar item. What is the Royal Potty? It is a potty that appears to be more comfortable than a normal potty as it is shaped liked a throne with arms and a back. It also has a splash protector at the front designed for little boys more than girls. It also has an additional function that is a fanfare sound when the child passes urine that is activated by the sensor. It is made with plastic that is easy to wipe. It also came with a sticker reward chart My experience First experience When I first bought the potty we were living in temporary accommodation so I...

Pet insurance

Advantages: Peace of mind
Disadvantages: none so far

...the best thing to do was have him castrated at the vets. After spending money on his injections when he was younger and worming tablets and his regular check ups at the vets, she decided to buy pet insurance. I have a car policy with Endsleigh and have been happy with them for a few years so we checked out the pet insurance with them. It?s a costly thing to have a dog as vet fees are not cheap. The castration of a dog costs £180 at our local vets, add this to the worming tablets, regular check ups of weight and health when they are growing up and their injections and your looking at more than £ 400. This is without including any ailments that they might have in their life to come. We bought a policy from Endsleigh for £112.09 a year. You may think this sounds a lot but it is broken down into monthly payments which can be paid by...

Review of Endsleigh Pet Insurance

Royal Sun Alliance really earned their premium

Advantages: Very friendly and organised claims advisor
Disadvantages: Too many menu options when phoning the claims centre

...Call me lucky or jammy or whatever, but before last year I had never made a claim on any type of insurance. Unfortunately, we had a MAJOR flood in our house last year when the mains feed into our header tank suddenly burst without warning. My husband and I were both out of work at the time and I was the first one home...... It was like a scene out of some nightmare film! There was water coming out of the windows, the front door, back door.....I will spare you the details, but basically, it was bad! Every room in our 4 bedroomed house except one was totally devastated. Once the house had been made safe (by the local fire brigade), they advised me to phone my insurance company. We were insured with RSA for buildings and MMA through the AA for our contents. And this forms the basis of the main problem - having two different...

Sweet life at Royal Palm Suite!

Advantages: Close to shopping centre/ city centre
Disadvantages: Shops close early, rooms slightly pricey

...One one of my many visits to beautiful Trinidad, I decided to try the Royal Palm Suite Hotel in Maraval. Having stayed in quite a few hotels and having heard positive reviews from family members, I decided to give it a shot and hopefully have an enjoyable stay. The hotel is mid sized with 70 or so rooms or suites, and is a family run local hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly and always had a smile or a kind word. *LOCATION* The hotel is a 20 minute drive from the Piarco International airport and taxis are readily availabe at the airport at a cost of around £15 (guests can make prior arrangements to be met at the airport by the hotel's in-house taxi service as well). Maraval is a fairly affluent area in the city with some very beautifu, large and expensive houses nearby. Nestled between the Maraval hills, the hotel is...

Better than life insurance!

Advantages: Detangles, leaves hair soft and shiny, smells divine!
Disadvantages: There must be one!

...As you probably know if you've read any of my other reviews, my shelves are bowing under the weight of Aussie hair products. Miracle hair insurance is one of my true faves. I recently had my hair streaked with blonde which I think looks fab! However the coloured treatment combined with the fact that I have really fine hair means my hair is a nightmare to comb through after Ive washed it. Miracle hair insurance is my saviour! You just spritz it through your hair after youve washed and towel dried it. This will work great for you if you have normal hair, but as mine is so tangly I use a regular conditioner first in the shower and spritz this on as well after Ive towel dried it. It seems to make the individual starnds of hair really slippy so combing wet hair becomes a dream! It doesn't leave a build up so you can use as much as...
