'More than one policy…

They say I have 'More than one policy holder with my email address'. This is probably two slightly different versions of my name, e.g. with/without an initial or something. The error is at their end but they expect me to sort it out... but no clues as to how I should do this.

Hi Jack, thanks for taking the time to leave us a review.

We’re sorry to hear you feel we’re no longer the best value. Insurance premiums can change over time due to factors such as market conditions, claims trends, and insurer underwriting criteria, all of which are outside our direct control.

We always aim to provide competitive cover along with strong service and support, and we regularly review our insurer panel to ensure we’re offering fair value.

If you’d like us to review your policy or discuss alternative options, please feel free to get in touch on customersupport@craftinsure.com and we’d be happy to help.

Kind regards,
The Craftinsure Team
