Deserves your loyalty

I had a life insurance policy for many years. The initial sale and subsequent policy updates were easy, friendly and efficient. I trusted them.
When a change of circumstances meant I had to cancel my policy, Kieran was helpful, understanding and above all honest with me. The company showed great customer service, a customized approach to my needs, sensitive to my circumstances and responses.
I was treated with respect and integrity.

Stress Free Claim after having a stroke

My husband suffered a stroke early last week. It has been most horrific and frightening thing we have ever experienced. I messaged Kieran over the weekend just to ask his advice on what to expect from the critical illness claims process with Royal London. I was not expecting a reply until Monday but Kieran replied to me within an hour. He took over the whole process and dealt directly with RL on our behalf. Our claim has been paid out today. This took 5 working days and was totally stress free. You never think you’ll need to claim on your policy but knowing that Insurance Helpline really are there to help you, just takes that bit pressure off.

Life/ Health insurance

I have had really good experience with Insurance helpline so far . From the first time I was contacted from Jacqui, she was very helpful and kind on the phone and passed my details to Kieran who from the beginning has been really professional and respectful to my expectations from life Insurance. There has been clear communication, I have felt comfortable to choose what I need
from all the different policies with no pressure at all to go for a higher quote . Emails and messages are clear and easy to understand and each step of the process has been sent to me on time. Overall ,really good experience and I would definitely recommend this Insurance company to anyone I know .

Natalie

Natalie has looked after my insurance needs for around 6 years now and I couldnt recommend The Insurance Helpline more. The personal service is top quality, so more personable than big brokers and all advice and arrangements are free. Everything gets explained thoroughly and even claims are dealt with free of charge. I would highly recommend Natalie to anyone.
