Tips & Things to Know

  • You have 14 days from purchase for a full refund with no penalty. After that, refunds are prorated and not guaranteed.
  • Check your home insurance policy - many already cover boiler and plumbing emergencies, so you may have duplicate protection.
  • HomeServe has no pause option, so cancellation is permanent. You can rejoin later but will face new terms and waiting periods.

Your Consumer Rights

  • You have a 14-day cooling-off period under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 for distance contracts like phone-based policies.
  • Under GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your personal data held by HomeServe.
