Data protection issue 🥴
Absolutely!

I'd just pulled up at Obelink when the daughter WhatsApped me to say that my insurance had been cancelled - she sent a picture and then the penny dropped that it wasn't my reg number, or the amount paid, or my policy number.

I'll be taking it up with them on Wednesday upon my return, but I need to find the person this does actually apply to

When you speak to Ripe, lay it on thick about your concern that their systems are not robust, and ask them if they will be reporting this to their own Data controller and the ICO ! And you should be getting a discount on your premium for your efforts đź‘Źđź‘Ź

Could it be a scam to get you to reply and perhaps harvest some info or premium phone number ?
Is there an insurance called Ripe

Just a thought ..lots of scams send incorrect info trusting you act .

Quiete honestly I would ignore any such notification .. even though your decency tells you to help out, it's too fishy-risky !

Jim posted a link for a Funsters discount with Ripe a few weeks ago. đź‘Ť

Hey remember scammers are very clever and can get details of Ripe insurance, recommendations , social media, they can copy letters etc.

Just saying although Jim has posted recommendations and one or two of have had good experience with Ripe, it doesn't make this safe from being a scam.

Apologies if I have insulted anyone.

But, if it is genuine, I'm hoping to find whoever it is before they get a pull from the police, or worse, something happens, and then they find out that they are uninsured!

LS20 *** Is a South London registration plate.

If you put the full plate in here
It will tell you the make and colour of the vehicle which if you publish may prompt someone to take a look

Already checked, it's a Peugeot Boxer, grey in colour and I'm thinking it's a PVC

Can you contact Ripe first thing on Monday, to allow them to contact the correct person immediately, but tell them you'll also be contacting them again on Wednesday to make a formal complaint?

It depends on the ferry's as that's what I'm doing Monday, then driving home Tuesday.
If they don't see this post, they might question the refund that they're going to receive

I suppose there's a chance they might not see the refund if they're away from home. What a mess! Really good of you to try your best to find them :) xx

Yes, that's why I'm hoping they'll see it here, because I can only presume that the mix up has happened because they've used my referral that I've only posted on here

Just giving this a Sunday afternoon bump to help the policy holder in question to notice it.

I've got all the details written down, I'll try my hardest to phone Ripe tomorrow

Just saying although Jim has posted recommendations

I don't recall every recommending an insurance company here. Apart from maybe saying who I used in the past. I've never used Ripe

Hi Bobby, can Jim not see clicked the referral link you posted?

No, I cannot see who clicks a link on a page. If it was an affiliate link, it should not have been publicly posted anyway.

Just managed to ring Ripe, my insurance is all in order, so that's a relief, but there was a notification on my account that a letter has been sent to my address of insurance cancellation, but without me saying anything the operator immediate saw that it wasn't my policy, nor my vehicle, a manager has got involved they are going to contact the correct person, and put a note on my account stating that the letter wasn't intended for me - but I'll be following up on Wednesday, highlighting the data breach again, and I want a letter confirming that my insurance was unaffected
