Can't issue a letter of Indemnity in 24 hours or even 4 days - shocking....

On the 5.10.2019 I was stopped for no Insurance and issued with a ticket to produce within 7 days. Reference my Schedule at the time advised XYZ (reg Number) - however you have issued the certificate in 123, vehicle therefore shows as uninsured and not on MIB or polica data base. I Request an updated certificate (You can't back date them)(unbelievable) which shows cover from 6.10 - This is no use as I have to prove cover was in place and on that plate on the 5th or prior too. I'm then informed a letter of indemnity can be provided but, 'can take 6 to 10 days'. In the age of on line policies which are provided in seconds 'surely' the required letter (which must be a template) can also be provided equally expediently - given it's your error in the first place? "We'll ask for it to be sent recorded" - but when??? I can't use my car and have a clock ticking before a summons is potentially issued against me. I've now called three times spent over an hour explaining this time and time again and am no further forward - 'managers' won't or don't take escalation calls' or ownership at any level to resolve this. Given your technically in breach of contract by providing the wrong documents and you seem both totally unable to grasp the policyholder predicament I am in (no car for 5 days) or do anything to resolve the matter swiftly. I have taken my option to raise this with the FOS and would welcome your timely response and solution before tomorrow 3pm Thursday 10.10.2019. All I want is a simple letter(or email copy preferably) that shows YOU insured the car under the above registration prior to the 5.10.2019, how hard can it be??!! Totally at a loss for words and thoroughly disappointed with the service which I shall share in social media channels and a wider audience unless I get a response to resolve this Reviewed on: 9th October 2019
