It's even more illogical. I have 2 policies with different ins Co's, both with earned max NCB. If I have a claim under one policy, under the terms of both Co's, I must inform the other Co. If I am responsible for the claim, it can affect the renewal premium and/or the NCB on both policies. Mike.

My insurance company has sent me a written copy of their quote for insuring my wife and I to drive the Picanto 1.1 litre auto. It shows me with zero NCD. Ludicrous. -- Kev |
