    OK then... well there was NO clarification of when the Fees for Amendment would be charged in the Policy documents.
    Came across pretty condescending.

    I only came back to this thread, as I already had some help regarding the initial thread, and said I'd post back *with Thanks to the original helpful member*

    No further information needed, please move along.
  • Auto-renewal is a trick used by some insurance companies (Privilege, Budget, and others). Get an insurance which doesn't auto-renew, and that's what I do from now on. It's just another thing to watch out for and I believe we as consumers should be protected from criminals like that. But that will never happen because insurance lobbies are bigger than us.

    Its not a trick. If you dont read your post then its your own fault.
