lockys96 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 not sure how that works james, as its a fixed premium. and wont go up or get cheaper, give em a ring and ask. oh forgot to say, its only makes you insured to drive the car and no one else, but you can drive other cars if insured on another policy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Looks like a really professional company. Great idea for a scam though. Generate loads of interest, take stacks and stacks of orders very quickly. Go bump after 3 months and have a bloody FANTASTIC Christmas.

Whitesupraboy2 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 well what id do is ask for their underwriters (jagman was saying zurich), company name and then you go to the underwriters and confirming they are underwriting for the company. If they are the company can go bust as the underwriters are the ones who cover you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mista_V Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 Christ on a bike! I'm an underwriter for Royal Sun Alliance and I really can't see how this could be possible, i'm forever the optimist though so i'm hoping. Tell you what though if its true I have a feeling our exec team might be getting very hot under the collar right about now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagman Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 I am meeting with the owner of the insurance company tommorrow afternoon so If anyone has questions please post up and I will try to get the answers but so far it looks promising-got to say I wish I had thought of it! As soon as I heard about it I thought I would post it up as there would be a likelyhood of interest(understatement of the year) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagman Posted August 16, 2006 Author Share Posted August 16, 2006 Mista v - as an underwriter how exactly do they assess risk and premiums? if this happens surely all the insurance companies will have to re think policy? it does sound too good to be true-but so did flying to spain for a tenner seven years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
