Small print peril You better read carefully the small print in the policy of this company. I claimed for a stolen phone and duly ticked the box for "refurbished" in the form. It took me ages to gather all the information about the incident and upload many supporting documents. However, my claim was declined because I did not buy the phone from Samsung but from a reputable third-party seller. This was the reason why Taurus rejected my claim. I don't understand why the company did not "red flag" this stipulation when I ticked the relevant box in the claim form and went through the tedious process without any avail. Taurus's policy flies in the face of environmental responsibility because it excludes recycled gadgets. All in all, the experience with this insurance company was more frustrating than the phone theft.

Cooperation is key Cooperation, honesty, and providing all the necessary details are essential for the approval of any insurance claims. Although additional information may be required, ensuring that you provide it will increase your chances of approval. If you're purchasing an item off eBay, always request the seller to provide proof of purchase and write a small document to transfer ownership to you. This will be required for any third-party buying. I was able to get my claim approved after providing all the necessary information. People who say these are scam company take a look in the mirror it's you are not being honest with the insurance company they never ignore emails or phone calls they answer honestly. I would recommend this company.

Terrible run away Terrible. It's been over a month now and I'm still waiting for my lost camera to be reimbursed. Nothing happens unless you call you them and then whoever answers will just tell you to wait 2-3 working days and then when you call again someone else will say the same. Can't believe how this is I've got a camera business to run. My claim was even accepted last week and I still no acknowledgement or indication that I'll receive my settlement anytime soon.

Being difficult They are currently dealing with my claim for a lost/stolen mobile phone while I was on holiday they are taking for ever. wanting so much evidence which I have provided and taking days to respond what is the actual point of having this insurance?? I’ve never made a claim before and have no idea why they are being so difficult Duel validation what even is that They want pictures of the box I got with the phone when I first purchased it This insurance is a joke

For claim regarding a theft of a mobile… DO NOT USE TAURUS INSURANCE. IT IS NOW MORE THAN 4 WORKING DAYS SINCE MY CLAIM WAS APPROVED AND THERE IS STILL NO NOTIFICATION OF REPLACEMENT DEVICE BEING DISPATCHED. I HAVE TO CALL THEM EVERY DAY TO GET UPDATES, AND EVERY DAY THEY MAKE EMPTY USELESS PROMISES THAT 'SOMEONE WILL BE IN TOUCH TOMORROW'. Edit 18th April: 8 working days since submitting claim. Have called Taurus yet again to be told that replacement device has not yet been dispatched from their 'repair partners'. For claim regarding a theft of a mobile phone: - Taurus took more than 3 days to approve (despite extensive evidence). Advertised response of 1-2 days not met. - Only offered a replacement phone and no cash payout. This was approved on day 4, but they failed to order the replacement until the 5th day. Told delivery of replacement would be 2-4 working days. - Its now 5 working days since original claim submitted, after further chasing them, I am told that the replacement device is sent to them, before being sent to me (???) and it is unlikely to be delivered until 11 days after original claim. - This is far beyond the response times advertised when taking out the policy - Taurus staff seem very confused as to why replacement devices may be needed with short turnaround time - I would have been more than happy with compensation, and procuring a replacement device myself, and this would have been far quicker
