Does Quote Me Happy offer the best home insurance?
Quote Me Happy
Two of Quote Me Happy’s policies boast Best Buy buildings cover.

‘Impressive buildings cover'
Dean Sobers, Which? home insurance expert, says:
Quote Me Happy’s Premier buildings policy was in the top fifth of those we examined – scoring 75%. It’s one of our Best Buys.
It didn’t quite pull off the same feat with its contents cover, though. It scored a more-than-respectable 70%, but we didn't make it a Best Buy due to its cover limit for valuables and its underwriter's claims acceptance rate.
It’s one of the few policies that offer no-claims discount protection as an add-on, which means that if you make a claim, your premium won’t go up as steeply as it otherwise would. It also covers guests’ and carers’ belongings for up to £2,000.
We were less keen on a comparatively low £1,500 claims limit per item. Its contents cover also doesn’t cover credit cards or digital downloads, which lost it some points in our analysis.
Trying it on for size
If you decide to part company with your insurer within the cooling-off period, you may still face an early cancellation fee reflecting the insurer’s admin costs of setting up the policy.
This isn’t the case with Quote Me Happy, which won’t charge if you decide it isn’t for you and leave in the first 14 days. However, if you leave following the cooling-off period, a £34 charge will apply.
Essentials and Essentials Plus
The alternatives to Quote Me Happy’s Premier cover are Essentials and Essentials Plus. Essentials Plus – with buildings and contents scores of 74% and 68% – is also a Best Buy for buildings cover.
Essentials wasn’t, but still earned a middling buildings score of 71%. Its contents cover was in the bottom fifth of policies we looked at with 59%.
How good is Quote Me Happy at handling claims?
Quote Me Happy's underwriter Aviva Insurance Limited accepted 65-70% of claims on buildings-only policies – slightly above the industry average of 62%. Some 5-10% of claimants on these policies lodged a complaint, which is below average (13%).
Meanwhile, the underwriter accepted 60-65% of claims on contents-only policies – slightly below the average of 71%. Some 5-10% of claimants complained, which is in line with the 7% average.
When it came to claims on combined policies, the underwriter accepted 70-75% of claims – in line with the 71% average. Some 10-15% of claimants complained, which is also in line with the 12% industry average.

How we rate home insurance
To be a Which? Recommended Provider, an insurer must:
Be regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)
Be available to the general public
Have received responses from 40 or more customers in our survey
Achieve high scores in our customer satisfaction survey
Achieve an average or higher policy score
Achieve an average or higher claims satisfaction score
Policy analysis
We analyse and rate 177 aspects of cover across insurers' policies, including their key buildings and contents features, and elements applicable to both kinds of cover (such as admin fees). We use this data to award each provider policy scores for its buildings and contents cover.
Initially, we score all of the product elements out of five, reflecting how competitive each policy is in this area compared with other insurance products. We also assess how important different policy elements are to consumers when choosing and using their home insurance, and factor this in when calculating our policy scores. More important features (such as alternative accommodation cover) will have more of an effect on the score than some other features (such as cover for the contents of your freezer).
Customer survey
We also surveyed 3,419 members of the public who had made a claim in the past two years. The survey was conducted in May-June 2026.
Our customer score reflects the general satisfaction of customers with their current insurer and their likelihood of recommending it. The claims score reflects how satisfied they were with how their most recent claim was handled and their likelihood of recommending the insurer for claims.
We review a lot of policies – and being a Best Buy recognises the individual products that stood out as being the most comprehensive in our analysis. It doesn't reflect customer service. However, we won't give a provider a Best Buy where there's evidence – from our surveys or from Financial Conduct Authority data – of poor service or a poorer-than-average record of paying claims.
Buildings Best Buy policies must have a minimum buildings policy score of 73%
Contents Best Buy policies must have a contents score of at least 70%
Additionally, we look at how consistently good the cover is in policies. To make the cut, a policy needs to have scored at least three out of five points in two thirds of the areas we've rated (find out more: how we rate policies).
Lastly, all Best Buy policies must have – or make available – the following levels of cover as a minimum:
Buildings
Flood, storm, subsidence and accidental damage cover; Cover for burst or blocked pipes; Trace and access cover (£5,000); Alternative accommodation (£50,000) with no time limit; Property owner liability (£1m); Replacement of locks or keys for external doors (£500); Home Emergency Cover (£500 and includes the central heating system).
Contents
Accidental damage cover; Theft and damage of contents in the open; Theft and damage of contents from outbuildings; Business equipment; Alternative accommodation (£15,000); Money in the home (£500); Valuables (unspecified single item limit – £2,000); Personal possessions (unspecified single item limit - £1,000); Replacement of locks or keys for external doors (£500).
