FAQs

Your CORGI HomePlan policy starts on the day your application is accepted. However, there is an initial 30-day period where you cannot make a claim. This is to prevent claims on pre-existing problems and to keep premiums low.

You should be able to cancel and switch to CORGI HomePlan. For more information, please call our sales team on 0330 102 8256.

If you cancel the policy within 14 days of the date you receive your policy documents, we will refund the premium paid for the current policy period with no charges. You are free to leave us at any time, however cancellation charges may apply. See Cancellation Rights and Charges in the Policy Terms and Conditions.

If you have selected one of our standard plans without a £60 fixed excess charge, then you will pay no excess charges, with one exception. If you have selected our Complete plan without a £60 fixed excess charge, you will be required to pay excess charges in the following circumstances:

• External drains callouts - £50 excess
• Taps and toilets callouts - £50 excess.

If you choose to take out one of our policies with a fixed £60 excess, then you will be charged £60 for each callout. This charge is not refundable and does not apply to subsequent visits made within 30 days, to fix the fault identified at the initial callout.

There is no callout charge for your annual boiler service.

In the event of an emergency (an uncontrolled water leak), we aim to have someone contact you within two hours.

In the event of a gas leak please call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 (FREEPHONE)

Our boiler services usually take place between March and October. When you sign up to one of our plans, we’ll be in touch to let you know which month you’re scheduled in for. When your service is due, an engineer will be in contact to fix a date and time that suits you.

Sorry, an annual payment option is not available.
