I have started this thread due to a number of other threads that have brought up issues on what you should / shouldn't notify your insurance of, in-case of a Voided, Void, Rejected or Cancelled Insurance Claim.
These issues are especially relevant to the MINI, as they are such an individual car and the owners can easily get caught up in the whole modding phenomenon that MINI owners love so much
.
I have quite a number of "true life" incidents (through my job) which I will add from time to time.
Everyone has heard stories but please try and keep them factual incidents that you actually have had, know of or know that are true, as stories that have gone through a number of people don't always bear any resemblance to the original incident (Chinese Whispers, a bit extra thrown in to make it sound good).
I haven't started this thread as a "scare-monger", as I've been accused of being a couple of times before (on MINI2), I have started it because 1st of all it could be interesting (i for one am interested), but most importantly, to make people aware of what is / can be used to void, reject or cancel an insurance claim, hence more importantly, making them aware of what they (insurance companies) should be notified of.
I have searched, although I have seen a couple off post relating to this actual subject, no actual thread, hence this one
.
Another thing that I would like to point out, is that some of my stories, true life incidents, refer to motor trade policy's and they are not the same as private policy's that most of you will have
, also remember not all insurances / policy's are the same and what applies to one person may not apply to another so please try and keep dis-agreements to a minimum
