What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Buildings cover, commercial insurance for a technology firm and policies for a client based outside the UK are among the arrangements handled by Ocean Insurance Brokers, and the broker's work on these draws consistently appreciative comment. Chris, named across the feedback, is repeatedly credited with being efficient, professional and personable, whether the first enquiry comes by telephone or through an online hunt for a smaller regional provider.

One thing mentioned again and again is how swiftly he establishes the type and level of protection needed and sets out the reasoning behind it, unpicking policy language so that clients grasp precisely what they are buying. Speed features in several accounts, with cover put in place at short notice, while others note that questions and requests to amend a policy are dealt with promptly and that help continues once the cover is arranged rather than stopping at placement.

Competitive premiums and fewer conditions attached are mentioned alongside the care taken over the advice, including one case where considerable time went into an unusual set of business activities. Patience and a tailored approach recur, especially from a customer whose situation sat outside the standard market, and several intend to return for future requirements.

Chris was highly professional in helping me obtain insurance for my IT business - despite it's complicated activities! Unlike other Insurance Brokers that I've worked with in the past, Chris doesn't just leave you once the policy is in place, he listens carefully to any amendment requests. I look forward to continue working with Ocean Insurance Brokers in the future.

Exceptional service from Chris at Ocean Insurance! As a non-UK resident and citizen, finding the right insurance policy was a challenge, but Chris went above and beyond to understand my unique situation. His patience, expertise, and dedication made the process seamless and stress-free. I truly felt supported every step of the way - highly recommend his professionalism and personalised approach!

I found Ocean Insurance Brokers via an online search for a smaller, local insurance broker option. Chris was professional and personable on the phone. He quickly found us a suitable buildings insurance policy, that saved us a bit of money and had less conditions. He was quick to reply to any queries. Will use Ocean Insurance Brokers again in the future.

Very easy to deal with. Quickly identified what type and level of cover I required and explained why. Broke down jargon in the policy which was really helpful for my own understanding of what I was getting. Will use again.

I would highly recommend Chris at Ocean Insurance Brokers. He worked quicky when we needed insurance cover arranging at short notice and was extremely knowledgeable about our business sector. Chris provided an excellent, responsive service and we will continue using his services going forward.
