I'd like to hear them explain the logic behind that. :lol:

If you've a bad enough record that they won't sell you FC then you get to pay through the nose for TPFT.

It used to be the same years ago for TPFT against TPO.

There was a fella on the other place who worked in the insurance business and explained these things very well. He got bored and left because of the usual rip off and cartel type comments. Shame really.

Third party only and a Q-plate; that's the man's choice.

And certainly none of that legal cover or protected no claims bollocks.
