    Cheap – but pray to god you do not get burgled as Cunningham Lindsay deal with your claim. 6 months and 40 phone calls on and I have still not received any of my items – although the claim has been approved by Tesco. CL use carrier pigeon as main form of communication as reports are neither received by them or from them and unhelpful, rude staff who do not listen to a word you say leave you frustrated. I am sure they hear from so many unhappy people they are in emotionless unsympathetic autopilot mode no matter what you are calling about. Tesco good. Cunningham Lindsay terrible.

    Tesco home insurance is great until you need to claim! Buyer beware, their claims call handlers will provide contradictory information regarding their insurance claims process and will try and avoid paying out at all costs. Thank god we only had our trailer stolen and our house hadn’t burn down. Do not use Tesco Home Insurance.

      Outhouse roof collapsed, put claim in on 8th jan, since then nothing, 12 letters 4 replies all say investigating and use omdubsman. Tesco insurance are rubbish no worse then that.

    Do not insure with Tesco (Home/Contents) unless you have endless patience, and time to do all work and chasing yourself. Customer Services useless and misleading; Loss Adjusters (Cunningham Lindsey) fail to respond to any communications or take any action without endless chasing first; Sub-Contractors appointed were shoddy and Inexperienced; and even Tesco’s own complaints process is not getting me anywhere. Ombudsman here I come… Save yourself the stress and insure somewhere else… Tesco may be a few pence cheaper, but at a stressful time when you need to make a claim, all they do is add to your stress levels.

    In April we had a major water leak and the damage was extensive. Tesco insurance, and Cunningham Lindsey were brilliant, I cant praise them enough, and have just renewed my insurance with Tesco.

    Do not Insure with Tesco their complaining procedure is rubbish, I just issued a County Court Summon in Northampton against Tesco Home insurance and a sister company UK Insurance Limited, ignored all my complaint and never returned my phone call, is bad enough we suffered a loss water damaged to our clothing, all carpets, rugs, bedding and mattress.

    I have just taken out a Tesco Home Insurance policy and unfortunately have also had to make my first claim with them. Everything was sorted out extremely quickly and I received a cheque for my stolen property within a couple of weeks. I received the full amount for my replacement glasses and the full amount for a replacement GPS based on the RRP.

    I’ve been insured with tescos home ins for nearly 6 yrs. I’ve telephoned since December and still no success. Wee came home from Benidorm in December and freezer had broken down with my xmas and new year and meat to do until the end of January in it. I phoned them, the prove was there plus freezer which is still here, with still no success. I work full time and work hard 2 pay my bills, they take the money from my account every month without fail, this is a honest and genuine claim. Twice they said they would phone me after me making 4 phone calls but they never did. I’m contacting law society and whoever else I need to as this is a 9 apartment and they definitely don’t live up to their name. I’m giving them to Friday then I will do everything I can to prove this is a genuine claim.

    The above comments have put me off. I was about to get a quote from Tesco but I think I will stick with my present insurere, Frizzell who are generally very good at dealing with ones queries.

  9. House suffered severe water damage from burst pipes 17 months ago. Repair work still not completed. Complained to Tesco’s Customer Relations Dept 2 months ago, despite a reminder, still no response. Advice- avoid Tesco Insurance like the plague.

    18 months ago i asked for help from tesco insurance who ive been with donkeys years, regarding a possible escape of water, the companies they sent caused so much damage all over my property in investigating this that we have been left to live in an unnacceptable unhygeinic bombsite. The extent of damage all over my house that they have caused has ended up escaling out of control and none of this was neccessary to original my queery. to see how we are living is shocking. This has made us ill. Cunningham and lindsey are the ones leaving us to live like this, while they argue with all the companies tesco sent. Do not insure with tesco, they are only interested in taking your money. I have never ever claimed on house insurance before, none of this was our fault but because of tesco i cant get insured with anyone else till they resolve it and also this could cost a fortune monthly in the future. i’ll fight them tooth and nail.

    Avoid at all costs!

    I echo everything said by Charlotte above – the whole chain of parties involved (Cunningham Lindsay, SDM Builders, & some scaffolding firm) are useless beyond belief. Ineptitude doesn’t cover it – they are bare faced liars. And Tesco expect me to coordinate between them! Already have my Ombudsman reference and just waiting for the date to pursue…
