Shannons home insurance ratings
Customer reviews
-
The Insurance Company for all my needs.
I've been with Shannons for over 10 years now. I have claims several times and found their customer to be excellent. When claiming I was overwrought with stress and the customer service team took the worry away and made me feel safe and not a fool. They calmed me down and took over my claim , quotes and forms. Thye have easy to lodge online claim forms and have accepted every claim from hail damage to accidential damage. I wouldn't go with no other company.

STAY AWAY, KEEP CLEAR, AVOID AT ALL COSTS
AVOID AT ALL COSTS. We didn't believe the negative reviews given to Shannons before we took out both contents and car insurance with them. Bad mistake. I spent over an hour on the phone - most of which I was so she could converse with her superiors ( now I know why). They were trying to work out a way to get out of paying up for a theft claim. They couldn't deny it. We had a police report, number, statement and follow up police reports for them . then they said they wouldn't put it though as a theft because their system didn't update my address properly - which they apologised and said it wasn't my fault... it was theirs. So they would put it through as an unspecified personal effect.....which they then said because it wasn't a thing that was carried around every single day, it wasn't covered. The are great at sucking the $$$ outof you, but give nothing in return. I am cancelling all policies with them. I'm just glad I haven't had to deal with them with the car..... STAY AWAY FROM THEM

SHANNONS TOTAL DISGRACE
I have had a water pipe burst in the roof, wetting a book shelf containing photo albums, books and computers. I have baby photos completely ruined. After 1 month i have still not spoken to my case manager. Shannons have organized to fix and replace everything that can be done easily. They have totally ignored every request i have made in writing and over the phone to put me in touch with my case manager so i can get my photos looked at and restored. I have spoken with no less than 6 different claims managers and all have told me that they will contact my claims manager via email and phone. WORST COMPANY EVER.

30% more expensive than comparable policies
After being customer for many years without any claims, the premium increased to $3300, we decided ti look around and found a policy with seniors ins that covered the same things, for same value and same excesses, for $1300 cheaper than Shannon's, I contacted Shannon's about this and was told that they cannot adjust or discount the policy Very disappointing Shannon's, no loyalty at all.
