Exceptional brokerage!

I received exceptional service from the very beginning. The broker was clearly dedicated to finding the best options for me, taking the time to explore all available terms and possibilities. They were personable and responded swiftly to my inquiries.

Ji Yang

Our firm is a small boutique firm which has been set up 3 years ago and was struggling to renew our PII. Fortunately, our firm got in touch with Mark Addis and was able to renew PII with a good and reasonable premium. Mark was extremely helpful and kind and showed his professionalism throughout the negotiation process. We highly recommend Mark Addis and all Birchin team members.

I approached them for PI insurance

I needed PI insurance - they led me a merry dance suggesting thet could knock over £11K off my quoted premium - then when asked ot confirm this quote would not change stated they couldn't be sure and then emailed - I am going to gracefully withdraw and ALLOW you to pick up discussions with Hera to finalise your renewal - why did they get involved - why did they interfere if they could not actually achieve what they said they could - do not go near them

Excellent service from Toby Reeves at Birchin…

Excellent service from Toby Reeves at Birchin. All queries during the renewal process were dealt with promptly and was always available to speak to.
Decided to move insurers after many years with the same insurer and was pleased with the outcome. Would recommend Birchin to others.

I was extremely pleased with the ease…

I was extremely pleased with the ease of the renewal of our PI Insurance. Mark Addis was excellent and provided guidance throughout. This really made the difference. I cannot recommend him and Birchin highly enough.

Great experience - Would recommend

Very smooth experience with arranging my first year of PII for my business. As a sole trader, the ease of the process made things much easier with already having plenty of other tasks to juggle whilst setting everything up in readiness for trading. I dealt with Mark Addis and Toby Reeves; both were pleasant to deal and professional throughout. Also sourced for me the most competitive cost-effective rate of insurance.

IFA PI Renewal

I am delighted with the renewal of my IFA renewal organised through Toby Reeves at Birchin.
I previously felt that we were being over charged by our previous broker and insurer and so I contacted several other brokers as well as my original broker at the same time. Toby organised a zoom call with the insurer and this better enabled the insurer to understand our business and for me to be more confident in make the switch to a new insurer and broker. We have saved a substantial amount of cost without increasing excesses.

Insurance renewal

Very pleased with service. I changed insurers and I think that Toby Reeves thinks outside the box which is very refreshing as opposed to just ticking the boxes.

We are very pleased with the service…

We are very pleased with the service provided to us by Birchin. There is nothing we could complain about. Not a single telephone call to any named person or the switch board has remained unanswered. Thanks Birchin for getting it right. Regards Vassant
