Another excellent Annual Renewal achieved

Thanks to the initiative of Rachael Bromham we managed to get a very significant reduction in our UK house buildings Insurance as a result of asking the Insurer to carry out a desk top valuation of our property, as well as persuading the Insurer that our house is not in a Flood risk area which they were originally suggesting; carrying on from a similar achievement for our French house insurance last year whereby a new insurer was introduced at a very significant reduction in premium.

Marvellous advice from a truly exceptional broker

I had a really tricky query about an insurance problem I had encountered with another broker.
James listened to my narrative, and asked more questions. He then immediately wrote an incredibly useful resume to help me progress the issue, and my problem is solved. I can't thank him enough and
I will be giving as much of my future business to him as I can as well as directing others his way.

Thanks for leaving us 4 stars which is below what we are used to and perhaps an indication that we didn't do everything we could have done? If there is anything you feel that we could improve on, please do get in touch to let us know. Thank you for your business, it is very much appreciated

Our insurance requirements are complex so it is vital that our broker fully understands our requirements to ensure the correct cover is balanced against the cost.

Top notch service but ………..

5 out of 5 stars

Top notch service, but three things would help to make it world class. 1. Putting out renewal notice a lot earlier. 2. Offering a recommended quote plus an alternative. 3. Tightening up admin so that someone is checking emails and voicemails for staff who are not in the office.

Thank you for your 5 star review and comments to improve further. We always welcome feedback and never like to leave a point unanswered. Unfortunately, as the review is anonymous we can’t respond with specifics but we hope our answers are detailed enough but please get in touch if you’d like to know more.

1. In general, we aim to work to at least one month prior to renewal. For various reasons it can be less than this at times, but we do work hard to avoid any last-minute renewals.

2. An alternative quote is not always presented at renewal as often the holding insurer will continue to be the most competitive and offer the most complete cover. Our focus at renewal is always to ensure your risk is in the best place, not only from a cover and premium perspective, but also from a claims perspective.

3.Internal communication on the whole is pretty good but we accept things can be missed if a voicemail or an out of office isn’t set up correctly and we will review this area in order to ensure any future communications are not missed. A call to our main office number 0118 916 5480, within working hours, will always be answered, as will an email sent to [email protected]. Our webchat function is also a good way of getting hold of a member of the team.

Annual household and travel policy renewal

4 out of 5 stars

We have always had a very good relationship with Macbeth but was a little disappointed when this year's renewal came through on email with no prior phone call. Quotation was fine but would have expected a call given length of relationship and value of business.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review and we are sorry to hear that you were a little disappointed with the communication prior to renewal but do thank you for sharing this. Having checked our system records, it does show that an attempt to call was made to you but as the ring tone appeared to be international we did not pursue - which is usual practice as sometimes clients may be in a different time zone. We are glad however that the quotation provided was to your satisfaction and thank you for your continued business and hope that during the course of the policy year, and at next renewal, you feel you have received a 5 star service which is always our aim.
