Easy to understand the process. Options available to suit convenience when having work carried out. Payment was very quick once docs all provided and review stages are quick and not left for days. Claims give me anxiety as often more admin that they are worth, not the case here.
I've never had to use gadget insurance before but I was pleasantly surprised by the service from Taurus. Really frustrating to lose my 360 camera whilst on holiday and I wasn't sure how easy or successful a claim would be but actually it was very easy for the initial claim, providing further information and payment. Slightly frustrating that accessories (SD card and selfie stick) aren't included but it does say that on the policy. Overall very pleased with the service.
Edit 5th Feb 2026 - the customer relations team has been nothing but unhelpful. Also you are signing your reply to this off with a completely different company so you’re all just a bunch of LIARS & scammers.
If I could leave zero stars, I would.
I purchased travel/gadget insurance specifically to protect myself in the event of loss; only to be told that my claim was rejected because the item was “left unattended.” By that logic, what exactly is the point of this insurance? Loss is loss, and this was a genuine claim.
I have never made an insurance claim in my life because I’ve never needed to. The one time I do, I’m met with weeks of back-and-forth, over 40 intrusive questions, and an attitude that assumes guilt rather than offering support. The process felt deliberately exhausting, as though the aim was to make me give up.
I understand fraudulent claims exist, but treating legitimate customers like liars is unacceptable. The service throughout was unhelpful, dismissive, and at times outright rude.
I would strongly advise against using this company. They are more than happy to take your money, but when you actually need help, they look for loopholes to avoid paying out. Absolutely shocking experience.
Name of person I dealt with Abigail (Head of Customer Relations) & others but they do not sign off with their names otherwise they would get named too.

I won’t lie after submitting claim then coming to here to read reviews my expectations were not great. After first initial submission I received a follow up email requesting flight details for inbound/ outbound, picture of the box etc so I thought here we go but information what I could provide was sent and claim was accepted and payment received. This process was all completed within 2 weeks, as long as you provide sufficient detail and respond quickly, you should be all good
Submitted a claim for a damaged phone in summer/autumn last year after having been insured for years. Claim is stuck because they want proof that the phone is mine by way of a signed letter from the gifter which I can’t provide after 5 years, although I did supply screenshots of messages sent at the time.
It’s quite clearly my phone, I have had it insured for years with the IMEI number supplied at policy inception. I’ve explained to them that I wasn’t able to get in touch with the gifter and just got an impersonal reply back once again asking for a letter. It’s common sense… Just seems like a way to not pay out, very disappointing after giving them money for so long - had to buy a new phone myself!
I also would give zero stars. Seeing all these reviews has given me some comfort that this isn't just us its happened to. Absolutely appalling company. My 80 year old mother has been trying to make a claim on the gadget insurance ( only for £550) and this has been going on since September with her trying to send them all the documents they require. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY or the company we thought we were buying this insurance through which is STAYSURE
