Probably the most devious insurance company in NI.

Probably the most insidious devious insurance company in Northern Ireland. They operate an old school bean counter operation for the big corporate 3. Based in Holywood NI.Thier customer service sucks. There attitude is : The customer is always wrong. They read from a corporate script. They lie & they prey on their customers.
