Customer service is a face of company
I insured my scooter with Principal Insurance on July 30, 2026. On August 1, 2026, I called again because my dealer had made a mistake with the registration number. My English isn't very strong, and communicating over the phone is still stressful for me. While all insurance companies are polite and respectful, I would like to specifically commend Queeni from Principal Insurance customer service for her attentiveness, patience, and clear English pronunciation. The issue was resolved, and I was left with a very positive impression. Customer service representatives are the face of the company, and after speaking with Queeni, I would certainly want to do business with this company again.

When cancelling my policy due to having sold the bike my fee was more than the original policy price and when I complained they gave me a supposed discount that never got applied and after several calls I had to pay the full amount because everyone on the phone seems to be illiterate.

I wanted to add a service onto my existing premium that is due for renewal. Couldn't have been easier. Done and dusted in about 2 minutes. Not a drama. Dead easy and the best thing ever for me and apologies if you read this and get upset - get over yourself in advance... I got to speak to someone in the UK - no language barriers
