    Dear Zogg

    We wouldn't normally increase a car insurance premium purely because of a non-fault accident. As we’re sure you can imagine, it wouldn't be appropriate to discuss an individual’s personal policy and claim information on a public forum like this, but if you can send us your policy number and contact information then we can pick this up with you directly. The email address is [EMAIL="LVCares@lv.com"]LVCares@lv.com[/EMAIL] .

    I know it's a popular reason that I've seen stated alot, but no one has ever put up any reliable proof, merely supposition and hearsay.

    It's interesting to see a statement directly from an insurer appearing to refute it as well.
