Great service

Rich Flintoft was incredible with the way he guided me through the entire process of taking out my polices. It is something I have always found very overwhelming, however he explained everything so well to me and took the time to answer any questions I had. He really took the fear out of it for me and made me feel at ease during the whole process. I can not recommend him enough. Thank you for your time

Richard Flintoft reached out to me…

Richard Flintoft reached out to me after I initially enquired online and he has been nothing but helpful since we initially spoke.

If this is the standard for employs at life search than I highly recommend working with them.

Hi Michael,

LifeSearch works in partnership with various insurers and comparison sites and only contacts customers where a telephone number has been provided as part of an enquiry, as signposted on those sites. Based on your comments, we'd like to better understand what has happened here.

I appreciate that our contact approach may not be suitable for everyone. As your review was left anonymously, I'd be grateful if you could email us at customercare@lifesearch.co.uk so that we can locate your record and update your contact preferences.

Have a lovely day,

Julie – Customer Care Team
