Never made a claim for years. But when I did make a claim I couldn’t believe how smooth everything was.
Easy to renew and just a small increase
Successfully renewed insurance
As an insurer GJW withdrew the insurance on one of my craft a Rickter and never explained why???
Fantastic company to deal with. Nothing is too much trouble. I’ve been with GJW for over 30 years and wouldn’t go anywhere else. The cherry on top is it’s good value for money with the easy payment options if needed. I had a claim many years ago and it was delt with very quickly. Highly recommended.
Very cooperative and helpful, quick to respond
Very pleased with the responsiveness of the staff when I changed my summer cruising area.
Good price with a choice of options to meet everyone’s requirements.
Re-insuring my boat - no issues - simple - no hassle - convenient.
Thank you for a prompt quotation on a prospective boat purchase
