Very helpful customer service

Spoke to customer service administrator Filipa. She was clearly spoken, polite and very helpful in resolving my enquiry to cancel a newly begun protection plan during the cooling off period, plus reviewing other plans I currently hold.

James was very friendly

The call was great and the representative was lovely but I thought this was an update for a policy I already have which covers my appliances so I have cancelled the policy James was lovely but the line was also a little delayed when answering questions
Also the call started with my warranty has run out but then was asked when I bought my washer so I am unsure how you would know the warranty has run out which is why I assumed it was on another policy I had.

Terrible company

Terrible company. Avoid at all costs. When our washing machine was out of warranty we took a policy out with homesheild and was told we would get a like for like replacement and what we got was a machine that was not even half as good. Now they keep setting up direct debits with out my permission.
Honestly the worst company ever and very un helpful staff.
