Very slow to answer calls and reduced my 9+ years NCD to 5 years when I did not renew my policy. Shame on you Fish!

Literally impossible to get hold of. Been trying for 2 weeks, phone, email, web chat. Nothing. Never had any issues before so I don't know why this is happening.

Withoit a doubt there is room for improvement from their side. Some of them are good and some really lack compassion. I actually felt like I was on trial when I phoned them up in the week, and it was even worse when their claims dept rang me back. It was only a shattered window and one of them was asking me if it was this, was it that after running off some scenarios. When I told her on the phone it was none of them, her response was 'well I have to put something down from my list'. Well give me a better option and I'll answer your question.

They paid out for my scooter in Ableworld for a new shard.even though it wasn't I who got the old one scratched in the first place.it came back home from Ableworld from having been serviced by Ableworld day after I noticed the scratch.which they denied it.however I had to claim on my scooters fish insurance company to cover the cost of a new shard.which is good.so anyone else who gets a scooter I recommend them to fish insurance company.they are really good.

Was insured with them for years but I had one minor query this year. I was shocked by the rudeness of their replies! Not just one member of staff but two. They also repeatedly ignored by question, or just didnt reply. Absolutely appalling way to treat people, whether disabled or not. I would never ever insure through Fish again and have literally just switched to renew with a company that has far better recommendations!

My wife (my main carer) visited shops and filled up our Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle with unleaded instead of diesel.
Called fish breakdown who went above and beyond all expectations. Being that the vehicle was stuck at the pump my wife was getting shouted at by a few Neanderthals who suggested she should push our VW caddy (on her own) out of the way despite other pumps being available! The call handler at Fish dealt with my wife's call with compassion and understanding. He called her back on regular occasions to give updates but also just to check how she was doing.
