Abbie Sontag and her partner Pete Brudenell, who both work for the brand, were travelling in Thailand when their taxi collided with a truck, leaving Abbie with three broken ribs, a ruptured spleen and bowel, and a break in her spine, all requiring surgery. Her partner was injured but has now been discharged from hospital.
Sontag found her insurance, provided by her bank, did not cover her treatment, which led to her family setting up a GoFundMe page. Writing on the page, they said: “She believed she had travel insurance with her bank, but she doesn’t.”
