Correct services but regular delays in processing refunds

Aline on  07/27/2022

Overall, the proposed service is interesting from a tariff point of view but after 1 year of use, I notice regular slowness in the processing of the reimbursement requests.

too early to tell

Mayliss on  10/28/2021

A correct and secure application to gather all the steps, a quick return by email in case of requests. But no real need to use the services yet nor emergency cases, so I can't totally judge on the services of the insurance. So far, it's pretty good.

I had a very good contact with my interlocutors, who explained and advised me with professionalism, competence and kindness so that I could subscribe to the best price contract and the most adapted to my needs.
