Default I'm getting an insurnace quote

On the phone to Peter Best insurance... I've lost the will to live with them.

My job title does not fit in their box.
lost my details as system crashed
could not get my first name right
Asked the wrong question, how many vehicles do you have access to. The correct question, is how many vehicles are you a named driver on when it comes to insurance.

they had better be cheaper

they were not. £314 with no mods declared v £280 with mods declared. Once we got to the mods it got worse.

Surely the only vehicles you have access to are where you are a named driver? Other vehicles you cannot drive and therefore do not have access to them.

Well there could be an unlimited number that because of circumstances would let you drive their car. So it is a question that you canqnot answer on your definition of cars that you have access to.

Actually, if you wish to be pedantic, their question is nearer to the version they should be asking, which is....

"How many vehicles do you have access to that you are legally entitled to drive, are capable of driving, and are likely to drive during the period of insurance?"

No, their question was "how many vehicles are you a named driver on, on the policy?" Answer was 5, wife car, sons car, my car, 2 motor bikes. Not sure about daughters car

Apologies if I have again misunderstood because I do not understand what it is that you are not happy about in relation to this specific question.

What is wrong with their question?

I think they are getting at work vehicles, large companies might not have every single employee listed on the insurance policy. However they all would have access to the vehicles.
