Excess insurance
Got the help I wanted to take our a policy. Very helpful and patient in explaining to me the policy details. Have had this policy for several years before Covid and when I had to make a claim, it was quickly and easy.

Reliable
Reliable, because they are authorized to transfer their annual fee from my creditcard and ask explicitly whether I want to continue the policy before cashing.

The ease of buying the policy.
The ease of buying the policy.
I did not give full marks, as thankfully, I did not have a claim.
Though, I am not looking forward to, I do not know how claims are treated.

Very disappointing
Very disappointing – intentionally complicated claims process
My experience with this insurance company has been extremely frustrating. It seems like they go out of their way to make the claims process as difficult as possible. The system is confusing and completely unintuitive.
They ask for an excessive number of documents, many of which are hard to obtain or weren’t clearly listed as required from the start. Even though I submitted all documents with my initial claim, they kept asking for more.
Instead of supporting the customer, they create the impression that they’re hoping people will just give up. I would definitely not recommend them – it’s a waste of time and energy.
