Seamless renewal Insurance is something we need but hope we never use it. After my initial contract the first year (a brief call to confirm requirements) Mark Bates Ltd were conspicuous by the lack of follow up sales calls offering god knows what insurance options. Professional knowledgeable and respectful more companies need to take note.
