Trustpilot customer reviews
I've been using Rentguard for over a decade. They are always helpful. Their reminders always arrive in plenty of time. On the phone, their agents are always helpful & positive, and know their products and suppliers well. Over the years, each one has been able to find lower priced deals, whilst still maintaining the required levels of coverage.
I have used Rentguard for a number of years- the renewal process is always very straight forward and it is always very easy to talk to the team on the phone. The people who answer the phone have always been able to quickly resolve my queries.
Rentguard are so quick and efficient when I am using their online quoting system. If the online system cannot quote I will be called promptly and the member of staff will check if any insurers are able to quote.
