Cancelled my insurance

slipperyox · 2019-08-09 21:06:45

Today I cancelled my insurance as they would not pay out on fire damage.(car is un-useable) They also refused any balance on the remaining 4 months. Tough luck, or have I any recourse?

What cover did you have? Why wouldn't they cover fire damage?

Your claim is against garage as mentioned above.

Is it beyond repair?

Get onto garage and see what they will do to sort it.

Get onto insurance or if work is below a certain amount go to small claims to get it sorted.

What is the specific reason your insurers have given for not paying?
