Why use an insurance broker?

4th April, 2017

It’s not just about price!

We are often asked why people should use a broker when most insurance policies can be purchased online. We always give the same answer: it’s always about personal service, personal circumstances and knowing your customer to ensure optimum cover is provided.

Whilst discussing renewal terms with a long-standing client on the insurance for their main home, it was brought to our attention that the client also had two holiday homes which were insured separately. We suggested that it might be possible to obtain a better policy suited to the client’s needs by combining the insurance for the main home and holiday homes under one policy.

Using our wealth of knowledge and experience, we approached the appropriate markets in order to obtain the best possible quotations which would provide accurate cover for the client. A service which is not available when using the internet, since it is simply a machine.

Subsequently, all three properties were covered under the one policy at a significant premium reduction for the client, whilst providing excellent cover on all properties.
