Just got our annual multi-vehicle (2 cars and the motorhome) policy renewed for another year.
At the end of the call, the operator asked if either of us used our cars for "delivery purposes".
I queried this and said yes - we deliver friends and family to their houses, food and other necessities to our house, dogs to the beach for walkies etc, but not for financial gain. No problem.
I also mentioned (foolishly, but honestly) that I would be working part-time in the run up to Xmas (as I do every year) helping one of our local businesses with food deliveries, to which I was informed that if I did, our policy would be cancelled.
I went to great lengths to explain that I would be using one of their vehicles, insured on their policy for this, and not my own vehicles as the deliveries had, by law, to be made in a refrigerated vehicle, which neither of our cars are.
I was then informed that if I was to partake of this part-time employment, our policy would be cancelled.
So - no part-time work for me.
Anyone else come across this?
