hi all, just wondering if you could shed some light onto the following situation. About 6weeks ago my car wouldnt start, i asked a friend to use his car for about 30mins that night. im fully comp on my own policy and i stupidly presumed i would be third party on his car. Turns out im not! anyway, im just pulling into the side of the road to give my friend his car back when i get stopped by the police, (numberplate light out) they asked all the usual, is it my car? am i insured? which i said yes to because i thought i was, they run it through their computers and ive got no insurance on that car. they take me into the back of the police car followed by more questions. my friend (the owner of the car) is stood right there when its happening and they interview him aswell... now ive been told that they shouldnt have got the recovery to take the car away as my friend was present at the time and he has full insurance on the car.... He had the pay £190 to get the car back which i payed half for. We both recieved letters the other day with court dates on,, most likely to get a hefty fine and 6 points. Now if its true that they shouldnt have took the car away, would it stand up in court?

hi all, i bought a laptop a few days after xmas in 09, i took out the Whatever Happens insurance there and then and been paying it ever since. Now this morning i went to take my laptop downstairs, lost my footing and i slipped and it fell out of my hand down the stairs . Its now unusable, I tried ringing them recently, but having trouble getting through. Im going to ring up again first thing in the morning. Im just wondering what dealings everyone has had with them, ive seen a few threads on here about them not likely to pay out ect. Just want abit of advice incase they try and fob me off. Thanks
