    Car Insurance -Renewal notice required at least 15 days before renewal date?

    Thank you dereko and jimbobp for your responses. However, as you will see from the quotes I have included above from earlier entries by me on this thread, I have made it quite clear that I accept that keeping my car insured is ultimately my responsibility. I would like to say that I very much...

    Car Insurance -Renewal notice required at least 15 days before renewal date?

    The latest development in my situation is that I contacted Microsoft Technical Support via their 'Chat' facility and it was clearly established by the technician involved that NO email was received by me from my insurance broker on the date on which they claim to have sent me my renewal notice...

    Car Insurance -Renewal notice required at least 15 days before renewal date?

    I have now discovered that contrary to the impression I was given by my broker, they did not in fact send me any renewal notice by post. This only became clear when, as Brendan suggested, I phoned to ask them to send out copies of all renewal notices they had sent to me. They now say they sent...

    How can there be so many uninsured motorists ?

    A further update on the renewal notice situation. Having been given the very clear impression from my insurance broker that a renewal notice had been sent out a month before my renewal date, and following on at least one or more phone conversations with them in which I clearly referred to...

    Car Insurance -Renewal notice required at least 15 days before renewal date?

    Thanks Jimbobp and Brendan. The latest update on my situation is that Quote Devil have told me that no insurer they have contacted will insure me, with the exception of Prestige, who will insure me for €2950, which is over 8 times the amount I paid to renew my insurance with RSA in February...

    Car Insurance -Renewal notice required at least 15 days before renewal date?

    I wonder could you give me the names of any of those companies Jimbobp? It might be useful to compare what they are looking for with whatever my most recent insurer is asking for. Thanks

    How can there be so many uninsured motorists ?

    Wall calendar now up. Unless I can see things right in front of me, and clearly visible, I tend to forget they are there and even a diary might not work (I would probably lose it) but I will try that and the desk calendar idea too. Thanks mathepac.

    How can there be so many uninsured motorists ?

    Yes MrEarl - my broker said that renewal notices had been posted out approx. 4 weeks before the renewal date and a week or so after it. There was also an email sent approx 1 week after the renewal date - but as I had never received such reminders by email before, and did not have the renewal...

    How can there be so many uninsured motorists ?

    Yes Direct Devil - you are right! I belong to the second category. After about 25 years driving, without a single claim on my insurance policy, having never driven uninsured etc. I was stopped at a garda checkpoint recently and was absolutely stunned to discover that I had unknowingly let my...

    Car Insurance -Renewal notice required at least 15 days before renewal date?

    Thank you all for your replies. Emeralds, had I seen the email on 14th February I would absolutely have been on to them instantly!! However, I was not aware it had even been sent, let alone read it, until I went searching after this whole episode. I am a relatively infrequent user of emails...

    Car Insurance -Renewal notice required at least 15 days before renewal date?

    Hello everyone I wonder if any of you can help me? Today I was stopped at a garda checkpoint and was totally taken aback at being told my insurance was out of date. I was absolutely convinced that I would not have let my insurance lapse and thought I must have simply removed the insurance disc...

    Old phone, aging owner - want to get free landline calls

    Thanks very much for that information. I know this will really sound ridiculous, but I have tried looking for a phone number for Three in the past and couldn't find one!! Any idea where I can find it? I had taken a look at the ***************** website alright, and there seemed to be an offer...

    Old phone, aging owner - want to get free landline calls

    Hello all I have an old Nokia 2330c-2 phone which I don't particularly want to replace. I use it only for phone calls and texts, and occasional 'reminders' on calendar. I don't want internet access etc. What I would like to know is how I can get a prepay package which will give me free calls...
