Impossibly difficult to communicate with just to renew an existing policy with no changes. CHAT useless almost stupid. Holding for 30 minutes for real agent, then holding on phone for 15 minutes, then promised call back twice , never took place. Useless

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback.

We are sincerely sorry for the frustration you experienced when trying to renew your policy. We understand how disappointing it must have been to face long wait times, experience delays in receiving a call back, and then not receive the call backs that had been promised.

Unfortunately, during this summer period we were experiencing a high volume of incoming calls, which led to longer waiting times and delays in returning customer calls. While we appreciate this does not lessen the inconvenience caused, we would like to apologise for not contacting you as promptly as we would have liked.

We can confirm that your policy has now been successfully renewed. If you require any further assistance, please contact us via our website and a member of our team will be happy to help.

Thank you for your patience, and we apologise again for the poor experience you received.

Kind regards,
Molly

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your breakdown and recovery experience, especially as you were stranded at the roadside with two young children during very hot weather.

We sincerely apologise for the distress and inconvenience this situation caused. It is disappointing to hear that you felt badly treated and that your concerns were not taken seriously. This is not the level of service we expect from our recovery partners.

We take your comments very seriously and will be contacting our breakdown recovery supplier directly to raise these concerns and investigate what happened. We expect all customers to be treated with care, professionalism, and empathy, particularly in circumstances such as those you have described.

Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We value your feedback and will use it to help improve the service provided to our customers.

Kind regards,
