Home Emergency Insurance-Smart Cover

I have been with Homeserve for the past 10 years. On the whole have provided a good service, but recent price increase has made me look elsewhere. Only need Plumbing and Drainage cover.

Looking elsewhere the only alternative seems to be Smart Cover-Home Emergency. There seem to be mixed reviews online and it doesn't seem to as big a set up as Homeserve.

Can anyone share there experiences?

    Sorry this is a money saving site?

    You have been with Homeserve for 10 years and paid what? claimed what?

    Put your payments into an account and pay local plumber when required.:)

    Had approximately 1.5 claims per year. Mainly blocked drains. Had a water pipe leak under drive, Homeserve paid for repair. Probaly paid £600 in premiums and would have cost near £1k in callouts without this

    Have saved me money!

    No wonder they want to increase premiums. Drains are terrible where I live so need cover.

    I'll ask again. Can anyone share thoughts on Smart Cover. Their premium is less than Homeserve
