      Trying to get a question answered from customer service is practically impossible, I've spent 5 hours on the phone with them over a period of a few weeks trying to find information about my coverage. After being transferred to the wrong department 7 times I finally spoke to someone with answers. When I asked if they could send me documentation of what they told me over the phone I was told I'd receive it within 24 hours, it's been 2 weeks and nothing. I called back a requested the documents again, they told me it was sent to the wrong email and they would send it within 24 hours, that was last week and I have received NOTHING. The person on the phone gave me the policy number so that I could find it on my own on their website and that would be helpful if their website was easy to use and didn't constantly freeze. The whole thing is set up so that people give up and don't get the coverage they need. Why else would there be so many people working at customer service that have no idea what's going on. Its criminal.
