Spoke too emma on the phone.more than less than helpful no clue what she was talking about and then when I rang back was unable to speak to her. No clue what she's doing then thinks been friendly will repeat business. More training needed and people skills need addressing.

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value There's are completely useless, set up a policy with them only to cancel it a month down the line! They give you 900 questions to answer and after all that they still think your giving misguided information. If you want something quick, easy and stress free then stay well away from these. Avoid at all costs!

Gave misleading information while selling the insurance policy and failed to provide the agreed services during the time of the policy

For a company of its size one would expect a better service. They are quicker to say no than admitting the lack of knowledge and even when you highlight to them what their website states they can do, they refuse to apologise or put you through to a colleague of theirs who does know what services they can offer.
