No, the police are meant to catch thieves not pretend to be them.

Only a few companies will cover to get a vehicle out of storage. Even then they may want to know the full circumstance before agreeing.

If the gf didn't explain it properly when she took the policy out they may have made the wrong decision. I'm not saying that is what happened but it could be a possiblility. Then when the WPC called and explained they decided to withdraw cover as circumstances didn't match their terms

Yeah, that's right, she's stuck and its the fault of the police.


Nothing to do with the idiot who drove without insurance.

That seems to be a fair summary.

Every single company I've ever insured with specifically includes recovering a vehicle from storage, providing that vehicle is the one named on the policy. So as I change every year, and use all the common names, I would question that.
As I said before, do you really expect every car to be left in storage forever?

Just thieves?

Where have the police done anything dishonest?

It may well be force policy to check with the insurance company before releasing a vehicle.

But they may withdraw that cover in certain situations which maybe what haa happened here.

My company have refused cover several times for diffrent reasons

And there are regulations by the FSA reflected in the t&c's about withdrawing cover to stop them doing exactly what they have done here,
