About Us      FAQs
  • I don't want to purchase online, is there a number I can call to buy my policy?

    Not all of us want to make online purchases, but don’t worry if you’d rather speak to someone in order to set up a policy just give our inbound sales team a call on 0808 168 4456. The inbound sales line is open from Monday – Friday from 9am – 6pm.

  • What if I have a manufacturers' guarantee or my appliance is still in warranty?

  • Are there restrictions on the appliances I can cover?

    Unlike most insurance companies we do not place many restrictions on what you can cover.

Home Appliance Guard is unable to cover appliances that are for commercial use.

    If a fault occurs within the first 21 days of the start date of your policy an excess of £100 will be applicable.
