Hi My travel insurance auto renewed today, I only found out when I checked my credit card statement. Do I have a right to cancel? Does the 14-day cooling off period apply? Before today I didn't receive any letters/emails saying it was going to auto renew. Thanks

Honesty not the best for insurance policies
Around this time last year I bought a new car and bought car insurance through Admiral. Previously I had access to my parents' car as a named driver on their policy. When applying for the insurance I erroneously omitted to include details of an accident I had in 2011, for the simple reason that I had no idea that a claim…

Nationwide Flex Plus Mobile Phone Insurance
I opened one of these accounts on Martin's recommendation, not least because of the Insurance features. I sent an iPhone 5 off for a screen repair, paid the £50 excess and received the phone back after about 5 days. The screen, whilst replaced, didn't seem right and wasn't reacting to touch very well.
