Stratum is uncontactable.

I am on the verge of switching to another gap cover company. Stratum is impossible to contact. I have now tried phoning two of their phone numbers and couldn't get a response. Both times I got tired of waiting and gave up. I got sick of listening to the endless messages on the hold line - and no indication of where I am in the queue.

Further, I find it annoying that the only response I get if I email Stratum is an automated response saying 'Your paperwork is in!' In where? The wastepaper basket?

A person from Stratum phoned me to apologize for the difficulty in contacting them, via phone and email. But it was too late; I had already switched to another gap cover provider. This, I think, is a lesson to Stratum never to let your contact with clients lapse.
