### 1/5 — Not happy at all

*2026-02-26, version 14.01.00*

Bad customer service and all system not recommended

### 1/5 — Glitch after glitch

*2026-02-15, version 14.01.00*

Trying to simply create an account however the confirm password button doesn’t work.
Can’t find anywhere for tech support as it just sends you to the main website which doesn’t seem set up for mobile. Tried to log in there and finally entered all my product details and it lead to a page that no longer exists and nothing has saved. Really frustrating when paying £17.50 a month on this.

### 1/5 — Pathetic insurance company

*2026-02-12, version 14.01.00*

I have been paying this company to insure my device for more than a year. I filed a claim because of accident loss. They rejected it on technical basis that I was using other sim in phone. I had one device damaged, repairer didn’t show up after taking payment for it. They cancelled my that claim as well. Pathetic pathetic pathetic

### 1/5 — Lost phone

*2026-07-06, version 14.06.00*

I have been a Tech Insurance customer for over 8 years. When I lost my phone, I submitted all the requested documents, including proof that it was mine. They kept asking for more information, and after making me wait for almost two months, they rejected my claim.

If they had told me from the beginning that the claim would be refused, I wouldn’t have wasted two months waiting. In the end, I had to buy a new phone myself. Very disappointing experience.

### 1/5 — Mak

*2026-06-24, version 14.06.00*

Doesn’t allow me to book an appointment.. rubbish website especially being part of Barclays

### 1/5 — Dreadful process

*2026-06-24, version 14.06.00*

Dreadful process.

### 1/5 — Poor information given

*2026-06-16, version 14.06.00*

Tried to make 2 claims for devices that were damaged in the same accident. Both time both documents were rejected, not much information was given to explain why, it took days of calling and speaking on live chat to finally get through to someone to tell me what I needed to do, but even then it was hard as I had deleted the old emails and they would not accept screen shots from the retailers

### 1/5 — Always problems with passwords

*2026-05-26, version 14.05.00*

Lack of good integration with iOS passwords makes it painful

### 1/5 — Avoid

*2026-05-13, version 14.05.00*

Don’t use it, you waste your money and your time

### 1/5 — Mak

### 1/5 — Adding item

*2026-04-28, version 14.04.01*

So difficult to speak to someone.

### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2026-03-08, version 14.02.00*

I've been waiting for a month to replace my broken device. No information. I'll have it done next week and I won't pay this insurance because it's pointless and a scam.

### 1/5 — App Unfit for purpose

*2026-03-04, version 14.01.00*

### 5/5 — Worst techpak insurance company when it comes to taking your money but not helping you.

*2025-11-12, version 13.08.00*

The worst insurance company when it comes to helping their customers claim insurance. If you try to claim insurance they will take ages to get back to you and ask you for more details that you cannot provide. There are two thief’s in this situation. One that stole my phone and this  insurance that will take money from me on time but cannot help me. Be aware do not take insurance with this company!
