I have had Kennel Club Insurance forever! First lab 1970s

I have had Kennel Club Insurance for all my dogs over the years. Never had a problem.
Life has not been kind to me over the last few years having major surgery for cancer and suffering 5 heart attacks.
Im well now but had to give up work. So it has caused severe financial problems.
I have a 11 year old Lab. Ive loved him since he was 8 weeks old. He is the only family I have in Scotland.
Many times I have gone without to feed him and pay his insurance.
I was struggling to pay and I had a personal issue. For a few weeks I have been getting support from a lovely lady called Michelle West. Who was kind patient and said she would do all she could to help my situation. She spoke to her Manager . LIAM. Im in tears writing this because between them they have resolved the issue.
When life is not kind. People like Michelle and Liam make all the difference. All the staff are so pleasant and courteous. But today I cannot say thank you enough to them especially Liam who made the final decision.
The one thing that has sustained me through all of my issues is my faith.
Miracles do happen on a daily basis and prayers are answered .
These two people are an asset to the company. I will be forever grateful to the good samaratins on the phone that ive never met. Bless them and thank you .

Hi Fiona,

Thank you for taking the time to write such a heartfelt review. Your words genuinely mean a great deal to both Michelle and I.

I'm so sorry to hear about everything you've been through over the past few years, and I'm pleased to hear that you are now doing well. It's also incredibly touching to read about the bond you share with your Labrador and just how much he means to you.

Michelle has been determined to support you throughout, and I'm very pleased that together we were able to find a way forward and take at least one worry away. Sometimes circumstances need a little more understanding and a human conversation, and I'm glad we could provide that when you needed it.

You've placed your trust in Royal Kennel Club Pet Insurance to protect your dogs for many years, and that loyalty means an enormous amount to us.

I'll make sure Michelle sees every word of your lovely review. From both of us, thank you for your incredibly kind comments, and we wish you and your Labrador many more happy times together.

Take care and very best wishes,

Liam
