Hi,
As none of you know, im actually a very young mercedes driver, only at the age of 19.
Before you all make obvious judgements like; 19, drives an mb, starting a thread in the insurance area.. I actually bought the car for 'banter', my friend paid for the car when my astra was classed as an mot failure 'not fixable'.
I managed to dodge insurance quotes of £3000+, but i couldnt get it any lower than £2400 (affordable for myself)
But in the end i decided to get insured on a relatives policy to save myself the extra hundred pounds.
Yes, i know, stupid.
It eventually came to £2100 with my aunt as the main driver with 9+ years no claims and myself as the named driver with 1 years no claims and pass plus.
We mentioned to the lovely lady on the phone that she IS on another policy for her nissan almera with the no claims in use. But she had claimed that this is not an issue so we went ahead with the quote.
We recently got an email through (ecarinsurance.co.uk) telling us that the no claims bonus proof is valid but 'is still in use' therefore classed void.
Where did we go wrong?
