Why do car insurers penalise you for a non fault accident.
Apparently I’m more likely likely to make a claim. I wasn’t even there!
What a crazy world we live in.
Hi Mark,
Thanks for your idea.
We actually covered this on Which? Conversation last summer, following an investigation into non-fault claims.

Housing and Fair Wages also Living Pensions
It is time that Housing was sorted and low pay ended
DWP Pensions among the lowest in Europe
I think if politicians had to live on the pension they would learn how
others struggle with their costs
Write to YOUR Politician asking he or she to live on a pension for a few weeks
Don’t wait for any reply many of them do not give a damn.
Scotland on its own
Hi Karacameron,
Thanks for sharing your idea. Unfortunately this isn’t really something that we would cover as a consumer issue on Which? Conversation. Thanks, Lauren
Is the Gov.UK Verification scheme working satisfactorily?
Is it time for the Government to strip these organisations of their contracts to verify identities until such time as they can acquire sufficient information from whatever sources to verify identities as a matter of course?

Which? Poetry 2017 Permanent Convo
There is a space under the topic boxes just waiting to be used.
Some very good poems will stay buried and forgotten in the depths of Which? so it would be nice to have them all in one place for further enjoyment and contribution.

Is HSBC’s new Safeguard ‘protection’ scheme in breach of the Data Protection Act?
Will we be bound by time-consuming demands to know all about our lives just so we can get a ‘secure’ service from our banks? How will this affect thousands of people who either don’t live near high street banks (which are disappearing), change their circumstances a lot (e.g. on 0 hours contracts), or who don’t get a bank card with their account (HSBC phone system won’t allow you through without a card number)?

BA Flight Cancellations – Website Blocks Online Refunds!
With one flight cancellation I found a route via Madrid back to London on the same day, but this was not offered by BA. Their call centre finally accepted this change, but only after a supervisor had to be consulted and I was advised that they had graciously made an “exception”; I don’t find that this is an exception whatsoever – it should be a basic service in the circumstances – in hindsight it was cheaper at the time to accept a refund and re-book the flight myself without their hassle!
The biggest problem with the BA website is that whilst is allows you to re-book cancelled flights, it blocks you from simply requesting a refund with the message “”Sorry, unfortunately our systems are not responding” – I have had this issue on each occasion (months apart!)..
It is so easy to book a flight online and then to re-book cancelled flights online – why do BA continue not to allow it’s customers to request refunds online (without the above), instead of having to contact a call centre to process….?
FlyBe Flight Cancellation 7 Weeks Prior To Departure
The airline said in an email “We at Flybe are not unique in this practice and schedule changes are an integral part of dynamic industry we work in. Any alterations are implemented only when necessary due to commercial or operational reasons and we do attempt to issue them as early as possible to facilitate reservations.”
1) Should there be any liability on the airlines in these circumstances or should it fall on insurance (if covered)?
2) Should train companies form better working relationships with airlines, when flights are cancelled in the above circumstances regardless of ticket conditions?
