Hope you don't need to talk to a human

Buying a new car trying to adjust my insurance to reflect that the online system keeps telling me there's something wrong trying to get hold of a human is nion impossible either tells you you got a 60 minute wait and then disconnect you after about 20 minutes or just tell you everybody's too busy to help you now we're going to have to cancel my insurance to go somewhere else to be able to insure my new vehicle absolutely appalling

Edit 0070422 no info request has come through yet so I will put it here for you

Edit2

The irony just on my way to collect the new car after I have sorted a new policy they decided to call me to late now thanks

And to cancel a policy guess what you need to talk to a human what a joke

BOOM if you read this just cancel my policy I have wasted far to much time with you now.

Rip off!!!Claim service contact doesn’t work, called many timea one lady will transfer call and never comeback. SCAM!!!

Rip off!!!Claim service contact doesn't work, do not buy boom insurance.

Below are the replies for boom respond.

I got reply from team boom but where do I respond too, could you be specific?

I have responded details to customer support boom email, hope i don't have to wait longer.

Why are you asking details in reviews? Which is not convinent. I already said its send to support boom email.

How do I get in touch with complaint team?

Boom doesn't have service support on existing claim when you call on 03440433561. Operator will direct call but never answers. Who should I speak too?

Disgusting treatment after cancelling my policy. After paying my final payment, I was referred to a collections company with no warning. Once this has been resolved, they referred me to the same collection company yet again.. steer clear of BOOM unless you want a damaged credit score should you decide to cancel your policy.
