“After being with a large Agricultural insurance company we decided to move insurance companies for several reasons, the main reason being the cost and second main reason ,we wanted to be able to talk to someone that could deal with enquires there and then. After speaking to several companies, we decided to move to Acres Insurance . We have found Kate and her team extremely approachable, thorough and professional. When purchasing a tractor away from home we were able to ring Acres and have the tractor insured with in minutes with ease and no hassle. Since we have moved across to Acres Insurance, four other family members have moved across to Acres and are all extremely pleased with the service they have received. We highly recommend Acres Insurance company.”
“We have insured with Acres since just after their founding and have always found their pricing to be competitive and their service to be first class. Advice from Georgie is always sound, there is no hard selling, just a good level of awareness of the products and services available for different circumstances. And she makes excellent cakes if you see them at shows!!”
“We moved our insurance business to Acres Insurance Brokers at the beginning of 2022. This was because Rollo, Kevin and the staff here in Kent offer good quality insurance advice in person. Their knowledge of farming generally and of my business is excellent. When I call I either get through to the people I want to speak to, or they call me straight back. The claims service is excellent and conducted entirely by Acres, Rollo has attended all meetings with Loss Adjusters following our recent storm claim and Acres have done all of the work for me when it came to interacting with the insurer. I haven’t been asked to call a single “0800” number. Aside from this, I have confidence that the cover is correctly arranged and suited to my requirements. Another pleasing point is the premium is extremely competitive compared with that of my previous insurer. I genuinely feel that Acres insurance brokers are in my corner, fighting my cause.”
“We have insured with Acres from the start, we are delighted with Georgie’s comprehensive knowledge and advice on all things rural. The Acres team are always very professional and make it very easy to setup/review and update our policies, nothing is too much trouble. If unfortunately, a claim is made, Acres deal with it promptly and efficiently guiding us through and dealing with the claim on our behalf allowing us to concentrate on running our business.”
“We operate a fairly complex business supplying recycled wood to a power station, doing green waste composting as well as pig and arable enterprises.Our Insurance requirements are far from straight forward! We have been impressed with the amount of time and effort the Acres staff have taken to ensure that we are fully covered as far as possible. They have taken a lot of time to fully understand our business and tailor insurance requirements to suit it. They have also taken time to point out the areas that are not insured.Acres took far more time to survey and understand the risks facing our businesses than other Brokers/Insurers. We have been very impressed by the service given and the very thorough approach.”
“Our business specialises in livestock transport throughout England specialising in pig transport. We aim to provide a top quality service to our clients. We are also livestock farmers. We have dealt with Nigel Wellings at Acres Insurance for in excess of 20 years for all our insurance requirements and advice. As soon as we were able to move to Acres Insurance we did so. The advice and service we have received over the years and from all the staff at Acres has been exceptional. When claims have come along every time we have been pleased with the outcome due to the fact that we know the Acres staff are always prepared to work tirelessly for us. Highly recommended!”
“We transferred all our insurances to Acres a few years ago after feeling our previous insurance company were not willing to put themselves forward to support us. Recently, we’ve needed some serious help, and we cannot express enough how amazing Acres Insurance has been, especially Georgie who has gone above and beyond to help and support us through a very difficult time. If you need to change your insurers do not hesitate, go straight to Acres you won’t be disappointed.”
