I am now insured with Cowens

I am now insured with Cowens. Mollie was extremely helpful and the quote I received was not extortionate. Obviously right now I am reviewing the experience of a new customer, but I found them helpful and they went out of their way to make sure I had the policy I required for my business.

Really helpful

I obtained many quotes from all different companies, which were all extortionate prices and I wasn't sure if they were even what I needed.
Then I found Cowens! I completed the contact form online, and not long after had an email asking if they could call. I spoke with Owen, and he asked me questions, listened to exactly what I needed, explained lots of things I wasn't sure about, and then he went away and researched which policy would be best for me. A couple of days later, he sent me a quote that was so clear, and perfect for my needs, at a fraction of the cost of any others. I am so grateful for the help and the amazing service that both Owen and Cowens have provided. Thankyou.

Selling an unoccupied let property and needed cover

I was selling a let property which was unoccupied and I was referred to Will Dowd at Cowens as my current insurer wouldn't offer cover for an unoccupied property. Will was very helpful and arranged cover without any fuss explaining all the ins and outs very clearly. Everything was made very easy and I would definitely recommend them in future

Thank you for helping us solve problematic Home Insurance cover

We have been through a terrible time with the death of our mum, and because we were left the house but arent living in it, no-one would help us. It was very stressful. Thank God, i heard about Cowens. Nathan Mee, your a life saver. Thank you so so much for absolutely brilliant service and everlasting patience. We now have cover, and are very relieved.

Beat my previous insurers quote by miles.

From the outset I told Will that my preferred method of contact was by phone as I rarely look at my emails and he was brilliant about it, it was a complicated insurance quote I needed, and he rang me every single time he sent an email to let me know that I had something that needed my attention in my inbox. He came back with different options for me to choose from in the end and the quote I settled on was significantly cheaper than my current insurers. The level of service I got coupled with the fantastic quote ensures that I'll definitely be going with Cowens again next year. I highly recommend them.

Nathan Mee was extremely helpful

Nathan Mee was extremely helpful. Kind, patient, eager to help, and put my worries at rest. As someone who hasn't dealt with insurance before let alone understand it was something I dreaded but Nathan supported me in my choice, and gave me the best outcome for my situation. Gave regular check ins but not to over bearing as some companies can be. If I were calling again I'd hope the rest of the companies employees had this standard. 5 stars.

First class service, from start to finish.

My Son needed public liability insurance and as usual asked me to sort it out.
My own insurance company advised me to contact
Cowens.
I spoke to a young lady called Emma.
10 star rating would not cover her professional knowledge, politeness, patience and kindness to an elderly lady. You are such an asset to the company.

Would definitely recommend

I am very happy with the service provided by the Cowens Group.
I spoke to Will when I made my initial enquiry. Will was polite, informative, and extremely helpful.
When compared to speaking to larger insurance companies, this was much more relaxed and personable.
Will worked his magic and came back with a very reasonable price for my business insurance.
Thank you very much guys.
