About Smarter Cover

Written by the company

As personal circumstances are subject to change at very short notice, it is vital that your protection reflects your personal requirements.

Smarter Cover is here to help you with that.

We are an independent life insurance brokerage, created to help you identify the most suitable policy, from some of the biggest life insurance providers in the UK.


Free Trust Service

When your life insurance policy is paid out, it would normally go through probate and, if it goes into you legal estate, may be subject to inheritance tax. By putting your life insurance policy into trust, the money will be paid directly to the beneficiaries which usually avoids the probate process and IHT calculation.

We offer to set this up on all our policies, for free.

Just contact us on: 0800 012 4402 to get your free quote.

Talk to the experts, not robots!

When you speak to us, you’ll be speaking to a friendly protection specialist based in the UK.

Reply from Smarter Cover

Thank you very much for your kind comments.

We are really pleased to read that you received very good service and that you appreciated the support provided. That is exactly the experience we aim to deliver.

We just wanted to clarify that a two star rating normally reflects that something has gone wrong or that there was a concern with the service. Your written feedback sounds much more positive than that, so we wondered whether the score may have been selected in error.

If you are happy with the service you received, we would be very grateful if you could revisit your rating to ensure it accurately reflects your experience. Our advisers take great pride in the service they provide, and your score helps them understand how the journey felt from your perspective.

Thank you again for taking the time to leave a review.

Kind regards
