Good to be covered
A very good policy for a nominal fee . the added income protection insurance was a bonus i had the misfortune of having to claim but the team at Mark Bates we’re very understanding and helpful what could have been a difficult period turn out to be stress free and very simple to claim would strongly recommend these guys for anyone looking for a self employed complete package i’m on my third year and have complete confidence in my policy for year ahead.
I've no complaints at this time. When I have needed assistance re contracts, I received good advice
I could (&did) try my scooter in the shop. The salesperson was knowledgeable about the scooter and explained and demonstrated the functions clearly. All the staff were polite and welcoming without any pressure and answered my questions Patiently and fully.
Easy and quick
I went to Cavendish Mobility whom I had already spoken to regarding insurance for my new scooter Jo had highly recommended Mark Bates Insurance. Jo then filled the forms in for me online. I had a text and email soon after.
Very helpful and polite
Very professional people and very understanding
Helpful customer service in renewing my policy. Tried to sell other covers which I didn't want. Please note my Christian names are Gerald Henry please amend.
Excellent, very fast service!
Giveñ good advice when needed.
initial contact was very good, and the explanation of how the policy operates, the offer of one month free insurance just to ensure that he does continue with the use of the mobility scooter is brilliant.
Always great service. Arranging business insurance for a carers business with a company who understand my requirements. The process was straightforward and renewing my policy is easy as communication good. Great competitive pricing and a really positive experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable business insurance, particularly in the care sector.
I made a telephone call to Courtney at Mark Bates Ltd. She was very helpful even though she had to contact the underwriters to clear up a minor problem. I would thoroughly recommend as the insurance for my mobility scooter was exactly what I was looking for.
The staff were very knowledgeable and helpful, also friendly. Items were delivered very quickly.
