I'll keep this short and sweet.
I was rear ended in February. Full liability was admitted.
The muppet who rear ended me had one day cover insurance and was very reluctant to give me details of said insurance it was only after three or four phone calls he finally gave it up.
My car was fixed via an ambulance chaser their monies for the hire car was claimed back through third parties insurance. I had the letter to confirm.
A personal injury claim was also made and an offer was received at the start of this month which I declined.
I recived an email today informing me that the third party insurers are now saying that the driver wasn't insured after all. They have attached a MIB form for me to fill in so they can submit it on my behalf.
WTF?
Surely the third party insurers must have realised that their driver wasn't insured before paying the ambulance chasers and making an offer to settle the personal injury claim.
I've emailed the solicitor hoping she can shed some light on the situation before I return the forms.
Anyone had this before?

Hope your back, neck or whatever it was - you didn’t say - gets better soon.

Remember though, this is the same OP better known for claiming he took a s
t whilst hiding behind his Focus ST, on a day trip to Blackpool with his kids during lockdown.https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...
If any of it's true, i guess the OP finally burned through his monthly furlough money and found a new way of getting ££££ and not having to work, if his posts in that thread from May are anything to go by:
Post count shows he's clearly been back through that thread at some point and deleted posts (some of them are still quoted) but the main ones:

Indeed.
I've no intentions of going back to work until the payments cease. I'm loving it on Furlough I've never had so much time to spend with my daughters.
Can't understand those who 'can't wait to go back to work'.

13-15MPG when I've got my foot down I couldn't afford to go on the dole. 
Currently getting the full £2500 a month. There is no doubt I am absolutely loving it.

I'm curious as to how he got the £2500 a month furlough mentioned in Alex post when in March he claimed to be in the building trade on a self-employed basis.
Thought self-employed were under a different system & were paid as a grant?

Laid off this morning due to covid-19. I work in construction and I'm self employed.
Long story short seems a lot of sites are closing at the moment. There's lots of temporary delivery driver jobs I've applied for a dozen or so including Tesco.
I've got an assessment on Friday with one of said jobs.
9 hour routes a day.
£26 Van rental a day.
Reviews don't fill me with confidence though;

I'm in two minds whether or not to bother going now.
Perhaps that one will disappear soon...Long story short seems a lot of sites are closing at the moment. There's lots of temporary delivery driver jobs I've applied for a dozen or so including Tesco.
