I sent 20 kg

I sent 20 kg. parcel, which was packed carton in carton and between the device and the carton foam, as well as between the two cartons 5cm. foamy I didn't expect any problems in transit, but I was surprised when the recipient informed me that the item was broken. The courier company refused my payment after a long wait. Secursus examined the case in detail with all necessary documents and photographs. I am satisfied with Secursus' communication and solution.
My insurance claim has been processed successfully.
I highly recommend this company to insure a parcel.

OUTRIGHT FRAUD

I insured a package with these scammers, when I tried to make a claim they listed multiple reasons why they wouldn't pay.

THEY WERE AWARE OF THESE CONDITIONS WHEN I MADE THE CONTRACT YET THEY ACCEPTED IT ANYWAY.

Nowhere on their website do they mention these absolute showstoppers, in fact they make it sound like they do service them.

Do not do business with these lying, thieving, [REDACTED]

I have used Secursus twice to insure fine watches which were shipped to delivery in Mexico and Switzerland. The website was easy to use and I took pictures prior to shipment as requested. The buyers were satisfied with the service. Luckily, no issues arose with delivery. Secursus enabled me to secure twice reasonably priced third party insurance.

A high value item disappeared without…

A high value item disappeared without trace in September and it took all too long to get Percelforce to confirm that it was indeed nowhere to be seen so I could pass that info onto Secursus. To keep this brief ultimately Securuss did indeed pay and my comms with them were straightforward.
Something to watch though.. I entered my claim in £GBP but my payout was some 10% down. Maybe [as it seems the Securus's site defaults to Euros] that perhaps I should have made my claim in Euros.. but then would I get paid out in £GBP or Euros? Either that was the case or their conversion rate is poor. In any case it was a massive relief to be paid out the vast majority of my loss and I will be using Secursus again possibly this week for another high value consignment.
One last thing, don't forget to take and upload images of what you are sending as per the small print.

Scam website- DO NOT USE

Scam website - have used for multiple deliveries and each time I had an issue they introduced a new rule that was not mentioned upfront so my claim was deemed invalid each time for a different reason despite documenting as they mentioned when I sent it.

Hello Davin,

Your review contains false information and is defamatory.

Here are the specific details:

1/ You insured four shipments with our company and filed two claims.

For the initial claim, we discover that you insured your shipment more than seven days after it was shipped, when it was already reported as lost.

Comparable to insuring your car after crashing it.
This is known as insurance fraud or extreme carelessness (we hope it’s the latest).

You opened the second claim past our 14-day deadline.

Each time your spoke with our team you seemed to not be aware of our Terms and Conditions and Shipping Instructions. By insuring your shipments, you attested to having read and followed our Terms and Instructions.

Evidently, you have not read anything, as you are unfamiliar with our most fundamental terms.

You state in your review, "I have used them for multiple deliveries, and each time I had a problem, they introduced a new rule."

Your sentence made it abundantly clear to the reader that we would introduce new rules solely to avoid paying your claim, which is, of course, a complete fabrication and utterly defamatory.

We do not introduce "new rules"; the T&CS are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week on our website, and they have not changed while you were using the service.

We take defamation very seriously, so please update your review and remove the false statements within seven days or we will take legal action against you.

Had a parcel that got damaged in transit. They paid the claim in full and whilst there is quite a bit of paperwork to submit. Its all understandable and I was shocked they actually honoured their commitment to pay out a claim! Most insurance companies look for any way out they can but I'm happy to say they sorted this out perfectly

Highly recommended when shipping musical instruments

Guitar tailpiece on a jazz guitar was damaged in transit.

Submitted claim to courier (Parcel Force) who rejected it because the said they don't insure musical instruments against damage (I was expecting this if anything happened to it, which is why I took out the extra insurance with Secursus.

Glad I did.

Submitted required info (make sure you package it up in line with their T&Cs and take plenty of photos during packing up for shipping - and at the receiving end) if the item gets damaged.

Secursus dealt with the claim for the replacement part & repair very quickly and I was pleasantly surprised that there was none of that nonsense where the insurance company tries every trick in the book to get out of settling a genuine claim.

All in all, I was very satisfied and impressed with this company. I will definitely be using then again for every shipment I make concerning musical instruments.

Based on this sole experience I wholeheartedly recommend them. And their rates are far better than increasing the insured level with the courier, who, if you read their small print will state that musical instruments are claims exempt anyway (they don't make this clear when offering higher levels of cover), so you would be wasting your money increasing the courier's level of cover.

Very good.

I have just found out all insurance is invalid without photos of the package. So you have no right to say "your package is insured" at the end of the online process, without requiring photos to be uploaded during the online insurance process. No photos, no insurance, otherwise this is a false statement. The package is 100% NOT INSURED without photos, therefore you must require photos to be uploaded to make this statement.

Hello Tom!

Thank you for taking the time to write a review.

When insuring with us, you must always read and accept our Terms and Conditions + read our shipping instructions that clearly say you have to take a photo of the package before shipping.
Once you have checked the box, we display the message "Your shipment is insured" because you have declared that you have read and applied our conditions and our instructions.

On top of that, once your package is insured, you receive an email that reminds you once again to take photos.

The photograph requiement can be bypassed if you are a business and you always pack your items the same way.

Please reach out to us if you need any more help.

Kind regards,

The Secursus Team

First of all

First of all, Secursus fills an absolute void with regard to the possibility for private individuals to send sensitive objects such as watches or jewelery with insurance.

All society exclude these objects from insurance and even exclude them from objects to be sent simply. So thank you.

Then the service is very responsive, no artificial intelligence or badly put together FAQs, a person answers you, and they know their subject. All this is very professional, diplomatic and alerts you to the procedure to follow so that in the event of a dispute, everything is in order.

I recommend Secursus 200%, thank you again for this service which allows me to reduce my trips for personal delivery and to send to the other side of the world (literally) in complete safety and serenity.

With love

Scam! unreliable company they won't refund you

Every insurance company looks good until it comes the time to apply for a claim because you are package has been missing or stolen.
I have purchased multiple insurance policies with secursus until in July a high value package was lost then found re-packed and the item inside stolen.
After providing every possible document required by the company, endless waits, replying to any kind of specific and detailed question about the situation.. The claim was rejected because the package was picked up from a ups point (where i work) instead of a private address or a ups center which does not even exist in the city i shipped from.
This company will try everything in their power to get away without refunding you, avoid at any cost purchasing insurance policy because its a waste of money and time, but most of all you risk losing everything as i did when a real problem shows up with your parcel.

Hello Andrea,

We are surprised by your review.

As explained during our discussions, we need a proof of value between the sender (you) and the receiver. We asked for the document several times and you later said that the shipment (worth €6500) was a gift, so you have no valid proof of value.
You have uploaded the purchase invoice for the goods, which is not the document we need to settle your claim.

As you are a seller of luxury sneakers, we need the invoice between you and the buyer.

Unfortunately we do not insure parcels sent as gifts, only commercial transactions are covered.

We also inform you that we do not insure packages shipped from UPS access points.
Your package must be picked up by the carrier or dropped off at an official UPS office.

The access point exclusion is clearly explained in our T&Cs and a pop-up message also shows when you select the carrier "UPS". This Pop-up message is showing since last year.

We remain available should you need to discuss the T&Cs in more details.

Kind regards,

The Secursus Team

Good Service / Be Aware of the Requirements

Ultimately it's a very good service and saves a lot of money compared to insuring direct with the couriers. I've now made my first claim and it was paid.

I would encourage buyers just to be fully aware of the requirements when using the service. You need to take photos of the items being sent (outside of packaging) as well as photos of the package with the shipping label. I originally sent in photos of boxed items being sent for a 14-day return and it was queried but as soon as I explained that the items were rejected 14-day items it was fine.

My claim was paid in a reasonable time frame, it was in fact the courier that dragged their heels. The courier paid me £20 and this was deducted from my Secursus payment.

Part of me wonders why they won't just pay the insured amount once the parcel is declared lost. However, Parcel to Go asked me for the same info so it seems to be the industry norm.

So in short, it's a great service and saves you a lot of money but make sure you do your homework if you want your claims paid......they will pay!
