    Hi, yes i have, they informed me that they do not cover cracks and that i took out the insurance just before the cracks started to get bigger.. i will phone them again as the person i spoke to didnt really know but then gave me the legal number which i have phoned and awaiting a fform to fill in to see if i have a more than 50% chance of winning.

    Ever so helpful 'helpline' :D

    Which insurance company are you with? Are their policy terms available online, so perhaps someone can take a look at it for you?
