The third party risk will be covered. Your own damage will not.
Insurance company may chase you for whatever they pay out.I am not a cat (But my friend is)0 -
I don't have any damage but because my insurance was for social and commercial they say my insurance is not valid even though I have paid each month x0

The company cannot avoid a third party claim if they have issued a certificate. They can chase you for the money. Is the other driver claiming from your insurance?I am not a cat (But my friend is)0
