Can't describe how much first response helped and how understanding they have been, I managed to keep paying my loan althrough lock down and then first weekend it ended went to play golf, I finished my round awaiting my pick up when another golfer had an heart attack, we rushed out with the defib only for me to fall off the side off the buggy before giving cpr to the casualty, The following day found out I had broken my ball joint in my arm and was unable to work for three month they were understanding and helped out where others didn't, awesome company.
