Insurance question

Mystery_who

Hey guys , I bought my car in January of this year and got it taxes and nctd, unfortunately due to financial reasons I did not insure it so it was just left outside my house, my mother got herself insured on it for 30 days in April because her car was broke.
I was just about to get it insured with boxymo went through the whole procedure but they then would not insure me because the car has not been insured within 3 months ,
Just wondering if this is the case with most insurance company's? AIB/AXA in particular , and if so is there anyway I can get around it without having to sell my car and buy a new one,
Thanks

How did you get it taxed with no insurance? How old is it?

That's crap, isn't it? Is this another "Thing" with insurers?

Don't bother dealing with this company! I went through the same thing you did, had to buy a new car to get it insured, then because THEY could not communicate with the company they contracted to fit the telematics device they cancelled my insurance ( It wasn't fitted on time). Impossible to get through to them, and they even deny getting calls from me. They now are taking 30% of my premium for their muck up. I'm making a complaint, and going to follow through on seeing this company held to task for, what believe is unfair and sharp practice.

Absolutely spot on avoid at all cost I had a similar experience the denied receiving my documents made false claims of sending notification emails all designed to cancel your policy and then take a cancellation fee plus charge you €125 for fitting the monitoring box and all taken out of your deposit, fraudulent and dishonest comes to mind.
