Good job I'm in a reasonable mood Dave.
They're a bunch of to&&ers on the phone to talk to.
When my car went into Fiat the first time they covered me on a curtosy car.
Second time it was going to go into Fiat they wouldn't cover me..
My policy had 'changed'.
They think that:
That means that I can drive my car or a car loaned to me by them if I have a crash.
I have a 'legal woman' and she says that's a load of b***ocks.
They also think that:
Means that I'm allowed to drive my car, and so is the garage.
Legal woman also said that's a second load of b***ocks.
Dom
You risen it higher with them Dom - Like you say they're wrong and your legal woman is indeed correct
Its worrying that such incompident knobs work within the field of indemnification!
Uuuurm, that is the case with many many insurers. There are probably less insurers that will allow you to drive a courtesy car whilst having mechanical repairs than those that wont.
Often you are driving on the Dealerships insurance, unless you are under 25 and you will have to pay to insure the car for a week or 2 (minimum time scale) on your own insurance.
If insure the box want a garage to be able to drive your car on their insurance thats fine. You can still make sure that they dont do that of course. This will probably be due to their installers having to run the engine during the testing stage. Technically if you are in the car with the keys in the ignition then you are in charge of the car (by Law) so therefore they need to be insured on that vehicle.
