Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Reviews

Trustpilot displayed 2.1/5 from nine reviews for bhspecialty.com, while BBB displayed 1/5 from six reviews for BHSI headquarters and corporate-owned locations. Both small sets mix products and accounts; they remain separate source observations and are excluded from a combined Review Score. Neither establishes BHSI commercial claims performance.[5][7]

NerdWallet
A separate Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection review was found; no BHSI commercial-provider rating is proposed from it.[1]
The reviewed NerdWallet page assesses Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection. It is a separate travel brand, not the BHSI U.S. commercial provider profile; do not transfer its rating.
J.D. Power
The inspected small-commercial study lists do not name BHSI; no BHSI score is reported.[2]
Reviewed J.D. Power 2025 and 2026 U.S. Small Commercial Insurance profiled-brand target lists on 2026-09-29. The published lists omit BHSI; these target lists do not prove absence from every J.D. Power product or subscriber dataset.
NAIC
These inspected NAIC pages did not establish a current BHSIC-specific consumer complaint index. The 2023 IRIS entry is not converted into a review score or complaint finding.[3][4]
Reviewed the NAIC Consumer Insurance Search route and the 2023 IRIS ratios row for Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Company, NAIC 22276. The historic IRIS financial table is unaudited and not a current consumer complaint index or opinion.
ConsumerAffairs
No BHSI aggregate metric is assigned from the separate Travelex review page.[6]
The inspected ConsumerAffairs page reviews Travelex travel insurance and mentions BHSI as an underwriter for some travel products. It is not a BHSI profile or BHSI commercial-insurance aggregate.

Customer Rating Pages

Trustpilot displayed a 2.1/5 TrustScore from nine reviews for bhspecialty.com when checked on September 29, 2026. The page includes travel-policy complaints and other accounts; this small user-submitted sample is not a verified measure of BHSI commercial claims performance. Its displayed figure is retained as a Trustpilot observation and excluded from a combined Review Score because the population is not comparable to BHSI commercial policyholders.[5]

BBB displayed a 1/5 average from six customer reviews on its page for BHSI headquarters and corporate-owned locations. The narratives include travel and commercial experiences, and a BHSI reply distinguishes a BHDIC account. BBB says third-party profile information is not verified. The displayed figure is retained as a BBB observation and excluded from a combined Review Score because the small population is not a comparable BHSI commercial-policyholder sample.[7]

Study and Regulatory Records

J.D. Power’s published 2025 and 2026 small-commercial study target-brand lists do not name BHSI. That establishes no BHSI score in those inspected lists; it does not establish that BHSI is absent from every J.D. Power study or subscriber dataset.[2]

The reviewed NAIC consumer-search and IRIS materials did not establish a current BHSI-specific consumer complaint index. The historical 2023 IRIS table identifies Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Company by NAIC 22276, but NAIC cautions that the unaudited table is not a complete financial analysis or opinion on an insurer. It is not treated here as a customer rating or complaint result.[4][3]

Brand and Product Scope

The inspected NerdWallet page rates Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection, a separate travel brand. ConsumerAffairs’ inspected page concerns Travelex and mentions an underwriting relationship for travel products. Neither page supplies a transferable BHSI commercial-insurance customer rating.[1][6]

Limitations

Trustpilot and BBB display small, user-submitted populations with mixed product, entity and account scope. Their figures are not representative commercial-customer surveys or claims-outcome measures.
Both numerical observations are excluded from a combined Review Score; the original displayed values and sample counts remain visible as platform-specific evidence.
No current BHSI-specific NAIC consumer complaint index or BHSI J.D. Power score was established from the reviewed sources. This does not mean such data is unavailable elsewhere.
NerdWallet and ConsumerAffairs material reviewed here concerns separate travel brands or distributors; their scores are not attributed to BHSI commercial insurance.

Questions to Ask

Which BHSI legal insurer and policy form applied to each reviewer account?
How many reviews on each platform concern the same BHSI product, legal entity, geography and time period?
Can a current NAIC complaint-index result be established for the exact legal insurer and reporting period relevant to a buyer?

Spot, a product of Tools for Enlightenment, publishes this research and works in the commercial insurance market.

Review Score

Not enough ratings

How this is calculated

Each eligible numerical review or satisfaction rating is converted to a score out of 10, then given equal weight. Duplicate source URLs count once. A rating with a stated source, entity, product, or population limitation may be excluded from the average while remaining visible as source evidence. BBB letter grades use a rough academic GPA conversion: A+/A = 10, A− = 9.25, B+ = 8.25, B = 7.5, B− = 6.75, C+ = 5.75, C = 5, C− = 4.25, D+ = 3.25, D = 2.5, D− = 1.75, F = 0. This is our approximation, not BBB’s formula. Complaint measures and missing ratings are excluded. Sources can cover different products, locations and years; this is a source-rating average, not a pooled customer score. Spot Score is shown separately.

Methodology

The baseline covers NerdWallet, J.D. Power, NAIC, Trustpilot, ConsumerAffairs, and BBB. Additional relevant sources may also appear. Platforms may cover different products, time periods, and groups of customers, and their metrics use different methods. The Review Score combines numerical ratings and approximate BBB grade conversions on a 10-point scale, with equal weight per source.

A BBB letter grade describes BBB’s view of a business; customer star ratings are a separate measure. An NAIC complaint index compares complaint volume with expected volume for a company’s size and is not a customer rating.
