Virgin Money Insurance, lack of response

Sometime at the beginning of March I took out a motor vehicle policy with VMI but as my existing insurance company would not cancel the current motor policy until end March I had to ask VMI to defer the new activation until midnight on 31st March.

Initially my sales consultant said that this was not a problem but a subsequent telephone call from another consultant said that this request was not possible in their "back office" and that they would have to refund me the money I had already paid and reactivate the vehicle policy from 1st April and request another debit order to start.

It is now 9th April and after sending FIVE emails I have received neither a phone call nor any affirmative replies and indeed no refund!

Does anyone else find this service unacceptable?

It is now nearly July. Still no refund despite promises to do so. Just a service request form emailed to me to ask if I would recommend VMI to anyone!!!!
