Miss Emma Poskitt
Quick response to phone call. Very helpful member of staff with clear and concise communication. Insurance set up in a matter of 5 minutes. Which was the same length of time I'd been on hold to a previous company. Glad I decided to hang up and try Mark Bates instead.

I renewed my insurance on my mobility Scoota on-line. It was quick and very easy to use and presented no problems for me - I am just 80 and not a technical wizard. Well done Mark Bates Ltd
