Sterling Insurance

Hi

Has anyone come across Sterling Insurance? We have found this company and got a quote from them which is half of what we are paying and we keep thinking there must be a catch! Does anyone have any experience of using this company please??

Thanks

We had problems with Norwich Union and only had two claims recently but for our sins they upped our policy by 33% almost crippling our finance plans.......so i contacted a broker via the internet called STERLING who hav halfed our premium which is too good to be true!! I've posted a thread to see if anyone has come across them as we hadn't and are concerned they might be iffy - there had to be a catch with the premium!! I agree that NU are getting worse - I used to work for them and they used to be proud to service their customers - seems the acquisition of so many companies they have forgotten their original mission statement to SERVICE the customers not fleece them! I agree that it's good to vent your spleen but I have to say it and if any Norwich Union employees are reading this, you really should be ashamed!

Hi Moonpig, Sterling are a fairly large broker that have been trading for a long time, they have a good reputation amongst other brokers.

Insurance companies and brokers are heavily regulated by the Financial Services Authority (Fortunately much much more strict on us than on the banks!). If you ever need to check whether a company is regulated by the FSA (They should be to trade) you can check on line through their register. This is the link

P.S If you read my answer to your other thread on home working you will probably be able to get Sterling to arrange a quote for you
