Easy to get a quote and be covered. I just wish general liability covered more since it didn't cover the problems I ran into at the event. Still a decent rate so I'm not too unhappy.

Very helpful

Very helpful, issued refunds very quickly and they were very understanding about misinformation or needing a different policy. Appreciate the customer service so much, you don't see customer service like this nowadays, super quick and easy, highly recommend.

First Time User and the Process Was Very Easy!

I used Thimble for the first time recently for a venue that required a certificate of insurance. I have known about thimble for a few years now from a colleague who informed me of the app. My business has never really had the need for such insurance until most recently when more venues have turned to vendors with it in order to keep their own insurance rates low. It was in fact very easy to use and navigate. Of course, I took my time navigating through each option and feel that everything was clear. Insurance isn't a once-size-fits-all so I'm glad I was informed of Thimble and will continue to use their service on an as needed basis.

OUT OF STATE OPEN BAR

Was organizing an anniversary party with a hotel out of state. Planned for an open bar. Your company helped solve the potential for liability. Hotel was satisfied. You were affordable and easy to work with. Thanks so much! Party was a huge success!

Poor Customer Service

Poor Customer Service - Long Response Time. If you want insurance that takes two weeks or longer to get a response, this is your company. I signed up for Thimble, and realized I did not get the right plan, and the certificate that was auto generated did not have the correct information I needed it to provide. It took almost 10 days from purchase date to get a brief response, then even longer to process the refund because at that point I was fed up. I will not go into business with a company that I cannot get a hold of or speak to an actual person. They don’t provide a phone number anywhere! Horrible service.

Great option for pressure washers

My industry is seasonal is it's been difficult to find an insurance provider that we could "turn off" for a few months while we are down through the winter. They are very quick to respond to COI requests and the premiums are extremely reasonable compared to others offering the same levels of coverage.

Stay away

Absolutely horrible experience. Once you sign up for a policy, there is no cancellation. Stay far far away from this company.

Unfair cancellation policy

I purchased an insurance plan for a total of $250. The project got cancelled and I quickly cancelled the policy 2 days later. Thimble offered a $16 refund! Very unfair cancellation and refunds policy-I would never use them again!!!

Overcharging hidden fees for monthly plans

Thimble overcharges huge amounts for setting up month to month customers, their basic liability insurance fees are outrageous, a 45 dollar down payment fee and a 100 dollar one time purchase fee for a 18 dollar plan is terrible. im sure their annual plan is more fairly priced, but they are robbing customers for month to month plans. Do not use thimble, there are plenty of other competitors that don't price gouge like thimble does
