Complaints
An insurance company is only as good as its claims
record and underwriters. Always check the credentials
of the underwriters and the record of the company regarding
claims. Check out the background of the insurer with
the appropriate professional institution and Association
of British Insurers. If your complaint or claim is not
satisfactorily dealt with, two useful addresses follow.
Insurance is not about glossy magazines or impressive
benefits lists. It is only of use when you need to use
it.
