Premier Insurance Services Ltd is an independent insurance broker established in 1983 by Mohammed Nurul Islam and currently led by its CEO, Anik Islam.

Its head office is at 49 Grosvenor Street, in London's Mayfair district, and it also maintains an office in Luton.

Insurer panel and complex risks

The firm works with a panel of more than 200 insurers, including AXA, Aviva, Allianz, Hiscox, Zurich, RSA, QBE, Beazley, Markel, Arch and Chubb, as well as the Lloyd's of London market. This access is aimed at complex and non-standard risks that online comparison platforms often reject: properties with a history of fire claims, buildings affected by EWS1, late-night hospitality, HMO portfolios, high-net-worth homes, listed buildings, unoccupied properties and specialist trades.

Working method and customer service

The process begins with the client describing the risk, which can be done by phone, WhatsApp, email or by requesting a callback. A broker analyses the exposures, compares several insurers, flags any warranty or exclusion that materially changes the cover and presents two to three options in plain English. Cover can be bound the same day, with annual payment or by direct-debit instalments, and policy documents are received immediately. The company states that quotes for standard risks are usually issued the same day and that the assigned broker remains year after year. Claims advocacy is included at no extra cost.

The firm states that it serves more than 10,000 clients in the UK and has a rating of 4.9 on Google and 4.6 on Trustpilot across more than one hundred verified reviews. Outside office hours, callback requests or WhatsApp messages are answered on the next working day; for urgent claims on policies in force, the out-of-hours helpline is shown in the policy documentation.

Corporate details and publishing activity

Premier Insurance Services Ltd is registered with Companies House under number 04113110 and its registered office coincides with the Grosvenor Street head office. The company maintains a corporate foundation, an affiliate programme and an internship programme, and publishes guides and articles on business, landlord, home, trades, restaurant, property management and high-net-worth insurance, among other topics.
