Vodafone Insurance terrible - help!

[mimo]

Hey everyone! Really need your help!

 

Last Thursday 6th June, I lostmy phone walking near my house and back. I immediately phoned Vodafoneinsurance to report the loss and make a claim. I rely heavily on my iPhone forwork so it’s a real struggle without it. I was told it would take 1 to 5working days to assess the claim but every time I call I’m advised they areawaiting third party info, however, nobody knows who from or how long it willtake.

Vodafone are really unhelpful, and theymake you feel like a criminal when you call. One guy asked me what I waswearing so that he can check CCTV with police and when I find my phone I shouldcall back. They are unsympathetic and unhelpful and would not give me atimescale as to when I should be receiving a new handset.

I’m leaving to go away next week and Ineed my phone desperately. I had previously lost my phone about 3 months agoand the guy mentioned that on the phone. Could this be an issue? Am I beingpunished and made to wait? I’m on a £50 a month tariff and paying £13.99 on topfor insurance. I pay insurance so that accidents like these can be covered andI have peace of mind. Now it’s just stressing me out.

Can anyone please help in anyway?
