Speedy resolution to problem

I called the company regarding a new direct debit on my account that had been running for a few months and it transpired that I had taken out a new appliance policy during a phone call. When I disputed this and said that I thought I was just renewing my existing policy, the matter was quickly resolved and a refund agreed.

Dear Marinela

We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with your experience.

Having reviewed our records, it appears that your plan was cancelled due to you cancelling your payments, which resulted in your protection plan ending . As a result, a plan was not in force at the time of your claim.
