Car insurance occupation?

blackasyoursoul · 31 July 2018 at 10:33AM

Hi everyone, I took out car insurance at the same time as I 'started' a new job. I'd been having trouble with the company, I signed lots of forms I thought was a contract but apparently was not. They then called me a while later to say they'd made a mistake and actually there was only work available for me if I got a car (it's a support worker job). Long story short, they were timewasters.

But, I took out insurance and put that I was employed as a support worker because of it. I've been unemployed since (unknowingly!) but I'm attending interviews for other support worker jobs.

I'm worried because, should I update my occupation as unemployed? Or do I just leave it, since I'll be getting another support worker job anyway? But the issue with that is that it says I've been in that job for longer than I actually would have been.

Sorry this is so long, any replies much appreciated :beer:

Yes you are required to notify changes of employment immediately

See your policy wording

I'm going to be a part time student starting August 28th, could I put now that I am a student or no?

You are unemployed and a part time student

I have now accepted a new job as a support worker. But my details will state that I started that job over a month ago. Will I be in trouble over this, what should I do?

Thank you

No, you won't. Good luck with your new job.
