Difficult to contact

Have recently renewed my home insurance with G&D and have never had to make a claim. Was a little put off with their non-response to my attempts to phone them as wanted to discuss my policy. Eventually had to use the Chat who gave a completely different contact number. Try ringing them - see whether you get a response. If I needed to make a claim I do wonder what help they would be.

Beware of no change cancellation!

Beware, cancellation means paying our the full policy + £50 fee.. You can't even roll it over to another vehicle. Hidden in the fine print!
