Saga - what do you think?

That's the problem with using brokers.
Maybe direct is the best way to go.

Saga are the same as any other insurer, they will massively overcharge on renewals. We just moved my MIL away from them as they offered insurance at over £300 for renewal, whereas the AA were £170, with £38 cashback.
It seems even a company that targets only the elderly, still have no scruples.

Saga is for over 50s. You think that is elderly? uh oh :eek:

No, they've moved their own goalposts in recent years though.
But they have portrayed themselves as a caring company, who would look after the market they targeted.
Now they are abusing their position.

TSx

Saga charge two excesses (as do the AA) even if the policy is with the same insurer, and they now have a £150 escape of water excess, so any claim for an escape of water under buildings and contents would have a £300 excess.

PS: Saga or AA aren't brokers as such, they're intermediaries, there's a subtle difference, but if you go to a broker, they should be making sure you've got a suitable policy, intermediaries are only going to sell your their policy, going through their panel of insurers.
