“Anyone who has had a policy cancelled may find it more challenging to find insurance from standard online routes, but specialist brokers often have access to niche markets that may be able to help,” says Graeme Trudgill, the chief executive of BIBA.
The letter you received when your van insurance was cancelled made clear that you had to advise any current or future insurer what had happened and “failure to do so may result in future policies being declared void”.
How can a man who used his van to sleep in on occasional weekends and put a few things in the back to make it more comfortable be left in a position where he can no longer get insurance?.
I contacted the British Insurance Brokers’ Association (BIBA) and through its “find insurance” service identified a broker able to help you.
Then, in October 2024, my motorcycle insurance was automatically renewed, only to be cancelled two weeks later due to the van issue.
