WFP Van insurance
« on: May 11, 2010, 11:50:15 am »
I received a call today to advise me that AVIVA are cancelling my van policy 5 months into my cover because I carry a water tank. They had no problem when they took the money at the start of the policy and I advise them that we were window cleaners.

Sounds a bit odd.  If they had a problem with it, I thought they would have noticed much sooner.
I hope you are getting a full pro rata refund on the unused time in the policy.  I also hope they are leaving the cover in place for a reasonable period while you are making other arrangements.

most insurance companies are still not clued up with the reach and wash and carrying water that is prob why, YOU ARE REPONSIBLE TO INFORM THEM OF MODIFICATION
