HML Holdings Plc

We have been using Centor Insurance Services for over six years and cannot speak highly enough about the level of service we get from their staff. Insurance is a vital part of our business and having happy satisfied clients confident that the broking and claims handlers within Centor are consistently providing excellent service is very reassuring for us. Like us, they believe that it is the quality of service that counts, not always the cheapest but always the best value for money.

Blackfriars Investments Ltd

We have been involved with Centor for a number of years now and from the beginning they have been friendly and efficient. We are involved in a number of areas of risk and in each case Centor have provided very sound advice, and have come up with very good cover which reduced our exposure to a minimum. If we have had the misfortune to make claims they have always dealt with them very swiftly and efficiently. I would have no problem recommending Centor to other business contacts.

Models 1 Ltd

Centor has provided us with insurance over a great number of years. They always give a personal service which means one deals with a person and a machine and, thus, easily understands the details of policies, making the small print acceptable for once! The modelling is not properly understood by most insurers and Centor have ensured that this is addressed and our insurance costs, which otherwise would have been higher, are now extremely competitive.

On a different note, one of our directors operates a charity in a so-called, “war zone”. Centor managed to obtain personal cover for 30 people. Not everyone can do this!

Teachers Housing Association Ltd

We have worked with the team at Centor for several years. Throughout that time they have never let us down - on the contrary they have provided a consistent and high level of service to us.

Things we particularly value about working with them include their attention to the detail of our business. They undertake a comprehensive annual review and its risks and take time to get to know our business. When new situations and issues arise they are keen to support us and minimise risks.

The claims team provide an excellent service, which in turn enable us to support our residents. The staff at Centor provide a professional and efficient service- it doesn’t matter who you speak to, you always get a good response. We are confident that when problems do arise Centor will work with us to achieve the best possible outcome.

Insurance is a very important aspect of block management. In this respect we are hugely assisted by Centor who give fast and accurate advice, and whose claim handling must be second-to-none.

We have not had reason to raise any concerns of them in all the years that they have acted as our appointed Brokers. Well done Centor!

Next Fifteen Communications Group

Having grown quite rapidly on a global basis, we decided to take a fresh look at our insurance programme in 2014. We chose to tender our insurances and were pleased to ultimately appoint Centor, who we felt fully understood our needs and were able to design a programme around exactly what was required within each territory, using their in depth local knowledge.

Centor took a lot of time to meet with our business heads and other key advisors and it was rewarding to see just how hard their team worked to truly understand Next 15 and, through that exercise, our precise insurance and risk management needs.

We are now implementing a robust, flexible and truly Global Insurance programme that not only provides wider cover and has already made considerable savings across the group by avoiding duplication; it is also managed here from the UK, making administration far easier. Their award-winning broking and claims service also gives us reassurance that we are in very safe hands.

David Phillips

As an experienced CFO in the London based PE backed space, I first came across Centor having approached several insurance brokers to tender cover for a global SME. Centor made the tender list because of their multiple industry awards.

Richard Grainger and his team stood out through the tender process.

Since our first contact, the Centor team have demonstrated the service mentality of a true business partner rather than insurance sales team. This included proactive on-site quarterly risk reviews where they took the time to understand each business unit and opened discussions around alternative approaches to wider cover from staff benefits to credit risk.

Perhaps the greatest compliment to Richard’s team is that I have appointed Centor to three different businesses and would actively consider them for all my future assignments. In each case Centor’s market leading service has led to improved cover at a lower cost. This is a win-win-win, which is a CFO’s dream.

Emwood

We run a fleet of over 500 vans and following an insurance tender a number of years ago we decided to move our insurance arrangements to Centor, previously we had been reporting all claims direct to the insurer and costs were spiralling out of control, having a massive impact on the premiums we were paying.

Centor offered a total claims management solution as part of their offering which meant each claim payment was closely scrutinised and any non-fault or disputed claims were defended rigorously.

Since moving to Centor we have seen a significant reduction on our annual claims cost across our fleet which in turn has had big impact on the rate we pay per vehicle.

I have to say Centor have been the only broker to deliver on everything they said they would and now I see them as an integral part of my team.
