Review of Questor Insurance


Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Very difficult

I was unable to buy the insurance as when I completed the questions on the addrtess page it asked for location. I did not know what this meant so I rang the helpdesk. He did not know either so in the end we did it over the phone. Not a good start.
Trying to download all information to read was equally as bad. It should be possible to print all in one go so nothing is missed. Unfortuneatly it is very haphazard.

Very disappointed

Once that I managed to get through to an operator everything went OK although it took 15 minutes to get through. If I was commenting only on this I would have given a higher assessment.
However the day before when I tried (16/1/24) I was on the phone from 7pm until 8pm and did not manage to get through to an operator and gave up at 8pm. Had there been another firm offering the same deal I would have gone to them.
Very disappointed with Mercury on this occasion although I've used them many times before and had no trouble. Could it be 'working from home?'

Difficulty understanding accents

When I first applied for travel insurance I spoke to an
Asian sounding man that could fully understand and we completed the application quite quickly except for the exact name for one of my wife's medical conditions. I had to ring my doctor's surgery to ascertain this. I was given a number to quote when I had this. I was told that it would be quick as we had competed everything except the above. On returning I spoke to another Asian gentleman who was very polite, very patient but I had trouble understanding him. Unfortunately we had to start from the very beginning which took a very long time with many misunderstandings. He did not have the original script in front of him which made it worse so we had to start from the beginning I would point out that I have temporary slight trouble with my hearing but not that bad. Over the phone it was laboured and long with his accent which I had lots of problems.

Dear Mr Nye,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review.

I can understand the frustration that it may cause to have to go through your medical conditions again, however to ensure accuracy on the policy and because our consultants are not medically trained, it is a requirement that all medical conditions need to be re-declared and the questions answered again.

Another reason why this is necessary is because in the event there has been a change in medical circumstances or that our underwriters have added a new question that will need to be answered that we are then able to confirm this information with you.

At Staysure we believe in equality and employ our staff based on their professionalism and customer service skills. We strongly believe in diversity and thrive on our multi-cultural team.

If you would like to discuss this further, please email us at info@staysure.co.uk and we will be able to assist.

Kind regards,

Gem

Everything was made very easy by Anna,

Everything was made very easy by Anna,
My booking was extra complicated and needed more work than normal. Anna was exceptional and spent a lot of time with me and needed patience which she had in abundance.
She made everything very easy

Not Happy

I received my compost as ordered and paid. Still waiting for my free plants I telephoned your helpline and enquired when they would be delivered. Reply no idea. I asked who I could ring to find out again reply Nobody. I still await.
Wanted to order some union Jack Plants on special offer but wanted 2 hanging baskets as shown but not 4. He asked for reference. I gave him the reference shown. He said that was for 4. I said it was the only reference. He eventually found it and I asked when they would be delivered. He after a while said they they were out of stock. I said that the advert was in an email which I received that morning, how could they be out of stock. Reply- well they are.
I can't help feeling that emails are sent knowing that items are out of stock which appears to have happened in both my would be orders

You have posted a public review so may wish to edit / remove it (reference your comment NOT FOR PUBLIC REVIEW)? I'm sorry to hear that you weren't given clearer information on the status of your orders and we can address this by providing further training at our call centre. The Begonias on this order were duly dispatched end July. We have had a stock gap with come of our hanging baskets but it's still possible to order pairs of our Union Jack baskets - you'll see them live on the website so I do hope that this information is helpful. Emma.

Dealing with Blackcircles was a very good experience

Dealing with Blackcircles was a very good experience. I was a little apprehensive using a company that I knew nothing about but my fears were groundless. The price of my tyres was exceptionally good and I had a choice of many local fitters.
I would definitely use this firm again and highly recommend them.
