First class!

Whenever I have had dealings with CSIS I have always found them to be extremely helpful and very friendly which makes applying for insurance so much easier as I am well into my 70s.

We have taken out this Civil Service Insurance through NFOP because a friend recommended it.
I had been quoted silly amounts but they eliminate certain breathing conditions but just say would your doctor say you were fit to travel.
The procedure was easy and we now pay an amount every year.
More than happy.

Friendly staff and competitive prices but lengthy queues

Friendly staff and competitive prices but excessive time in queueing. On one occasion entered the queue at 3, went up to first place before the system sent me back down to 6! Extremely frustrating.

Hi Mr Williamson,
Thank you so much for your feedback, it’s great to hear that you found our team friendly and our prices competitive. We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know.
I’m very sorry, though, that your experience with the phone queueing system wasn’t as smooth as it should have been. I completely understand how frustrating it must have been to move up the queue only to be pushed back down again.
To help us investigate this properly with our IT team, could you kindly let us know the number you called from? If you could email it to insurance@csis.co.uk, FAO myself, I’ll make sure it’s looked into as a priority and will get back to you once we have an update.
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention - your feedback genuinely helps us improve the service we offer.
Kind regards,
Spencer
