To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software.

Written by the company

Thistle My Home Contents insurance is a specialist insurance designed for tenants in social housing. Did you know that your housing provider may not cover your furniture, belongings and other personal items within your home against theft, fire, vandalism, burst pipes and other household risks? That's where we can help. All social housing residents are eligible for cover and we don’t require specific types of lock to get cover. If your external doors can lock, then we can keep you covered.

Hi John,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and I’m sorry to hear about the issues you’ve had with your claim - that’s not the experience we want for our customers.

We’d really like to look into this properly for you and review the details of your policy and the claim decision. As we’ll need to confirm some personal and policy information, please could you contact our Thistle Tenants team using one of the following:

Phone: 0345 450 7288
Email: myhome@thistleinsurance.co.uk

Web form: https://www.thistlemyhome.co.uk/contact-us

If you can include your policy number and a brief outline of what happened when you get in touch, we’ll be able to review this and come back to you with a more detailed response.

Kind regards,
Thistle - Tenants Social Team

James took ownership of my issue and rapidly resolved the problem. He was courteous, professional and responsive. I initially spoke to one of his colleagues who was also courteous, professional and responsive but had some difficulty locating the necessary information for dealing with the issue (in fairness this may not have been her fault).

Anyone can write a Trustpilot review. People who write reviews have ownership to edit or delete them at any time, and they’ll be displayed as long as an account is active.

Companies can ask for reviews via automatic invitations. Labeled Verified, they’re about genuine experiences.
