Excellent walk-in shower installed by Handicare
Just had a walk-in shower installed for my mother who is 92 and suffering from Alzheimers. The team from Handicare who designed and installed the shower unit were absolutely superb. The whole experience was excellent. A top job with unbeatable customer care. Thank you Ageco and your partners Handicare for a trouble free experience. We are 100% satisfied.

Looking for new home insurance quote after Saga, who I had been with for years, more than doubled my premium. Got a quote with LV and later tried Age Co. and surprised that Age Co. took you to the LV website. Filled in more or less the same details in the quote, same excess, cover etc and disgracefully was far dearer than if I’d went with LV alone.
Owned by Age UK who should be ashamed to call itself a charity supporting older people.
Response to reply:
Sorry! But not interested in contacting Age.Co. Please just get someone to get a quote directly with LV or via your site and see the difference yourself in the premium.

Good afternoon
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with Age Co Home Insurance, which is provided by our insurance partner LV=.
I am sorry to learn of your concerns regarding the premium quoted by LV= for the Age Co Home Insurance policy and the premium quoted for a policy with LV= directly.
We would welcome the opportunity to investigate your concerns further with LV=, in order to better understand the differences in the two premiums.
As Trustpilot provides limited information we would be grateful if you could contact our Customer Relations team so that we can take some further details to enable us to investigate with LV=. You can call us on 0800 055 6205, this line is open 10am to 4pm Monday to Friday (excluding bank holidays) or you can email us at customer.relations@ageco.co.uk.
Once again thank you for your review and taking the time to bring this to our attention.
Kind regards
