    Gaz,

    LOL - This is better than anything on TV at the moment.

    Given Magpie's example, perhaps you could claim for loss of all the fuel you ever bought on the basis of a very large number of very small fires.

    We have had diesel stolen from the van parked outside mum and dad's house.
    If we had used a credit card to fill up would we be able to claim the money back? We did report it to the police and have a crime reference number.

    What info would the card company need to know - obviously we had been driving it since it was filled up and we don't make a note of the mileage ever time we fill up - think we should ?

    Cheers.

    claim on your van insurance
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.
