Absolutely awful! I spoke to them 2 weeks ago, and heard nothing back. I contacted them via their website a week later and nothing, and finally tried ringing twice last Friday, and they didn't even pick the phone up. If they cannot insure me, the least they could do is show some courtesy by telling me! Other insurance brokers in Taunton have been excellent.
