“I am writing to leave good feedback for your operator regarding the way she assisted me with the flat tyre I experienced today. She is very empathetic and friendly and knows how to listen to your customers and fully understands the difficulties that a non-native speaker may have when requesting help in another language and she adapted to the situation perfectly. She was a very friendly person who let me express my worries, asked questions and was very understanding. She saved my very bad long day and was a positive side of a very bad experience. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, I will never forget the service she provided.”

 Feedback from Adrián G.

“Our motorhome gave a warning sound and flashed a low engine oil pressure message. Your operator was very helpful, he first asked about the size of the vehicle and the oil level. We had checked the oil level and it was fine. Your operator did advise that there are a number of things that could cause a low engine oil pressure and recommended towing to err on the side of caution. The gentleman was very helpful, nothing was a problem.”

 Feedback from Beryl & Eric T.

“I would just like to say thank you for the assistance I received tonight from your roadside assistance operator. I called in a panicked state after my 1 year old locked the car from inside. The vehicle was my husband’s company car, not my insured car, but the operator still helped me and sent out roadside assistance. Thank you, we feel so blessed knowing we are using such a caring insurance company, and thank you for getting the assistance there so fast.”

 Feedback from Roelien & Jonathan B.

“I am very grateful for your operators help, she was lovely and really calmed me down as my vehicle had broken down in a very scary and dark place and I was feeling really flustered.”

 Feedback from Christine C.

“Tow needed to be resolved quickly and your team did this and a positive outcome was achieved. We wish to pass on our thanks for going above and beyond, both the staff members we spoke to took the matter to hand and prioritised”.
