3rd Party Insurance

[teresa]

my b/f has just gone to change his details on his car insurance and has been told on his policy he can no longer drive another car not belonging to him even with the owners permission. He was told the government are now fazing it out and next year no one will be able to do it ......anyone else had this from an insurer

talking of insurance have you seen that norwich union have opened up the pay as you go scheme! to all and sundry now? well nearly all! Audi A8 owners are on the definate no no list :rolleyes:

i was wondering if thats why they are stopping the third party cover on insurance ....so they can actually keep an eye on whos driving

[morticiaskeeper]

I had that on my old insurance, I wasn't allowed to drive anything else.

 

When my broker decided not to renew my policy with the insurer, despite taking the money from me, the policy I sorted out direct does allow me to drive someone else's car.

 

Both policies were Norwich Union.

While we're on the subject of insurance, I got a renewal through from the people with the driving telephone, and it was

no just renewed two policies with Tesco and I am still insured Third Party on any other vehicle with the owners permission

tressa is your other half only on 3rd party insurance or fully comp as they remove the other cars part on tpft policies?

My insurance has just been renewed and I am insured to drive anything else 3rd party.

hes got 3rd party fire and theft he renewed his insurance in september last yr which had the third party liability on it hes just changed his car on the policy (sold his bmw and bought a mx5) and his new certificate hasnt got this on which is why i was askin surly they would of kept it on all hes done is change car not his insurance company

[gregers]

i think thats the answer then,the insurance company's are probably trying to stop this where you insure fire and theft and can legally drive another car on third party cover,should imagine there only going to keep this benefit for those who are fully comp.

I really hope they don't take it away. Its about the only good thing that those money grabbing insurance companies offer me.

Just wondering, If I am insured fully comp and allow someone else to drive my car third party only, can I claim for the car on my fully comp policy or is my car lost as the person driving is third party only ?

[adrianf.]

I would have thought that the car would be lost as the person driving at the time of the accident was only covered 3rd party.

If you tell them of course :angry:
