Scott's story

We put our customer's needs first and pride ourselves on working with them to help relieve stress and uncertainty.

That's why, when Scott rang us for help when he discovered his mother had been in a car accident, we responded quickly. We towed the car to the assessors and, after it was deemed a total loss, we deposited the agreed amount into their account the very same day.
