| Dual insurance? I just phoned up Norwich Union who are my current insurer and inquired about a weeks insurance on my parents C3. They cannot add me to their insurance because it's some company who doesn't like under 50's  Anyway, we did this last year but for the Focus instead. When I asked them just 5 minutes ago though they said they cannot do it because it would mean the car had dual insurance policies against it. Since when did this come into effect then? I am about to ring Tesco and maybe a few others and see if it's the same story everywhere... My name is Simon  |

| Wtf? All your parents have to do is insure you as a named driver. Thats what mine did. Dunno wtf all this dual insurance gubbins is. BTW - i tried to get quotes from norwitch union for me gramp. Let us just say - they did not quote us happy, and they were on the news a day later about not quoting lots of people happy. Steer cleeer. I use tescos. An im faitful to them as theyre the only company that gave me a good quote on an Audi RS2 which is group 20. Only £1500/year! Butuz |

| Insurers don't fo insurance for a week. They do it by the month, quarter or year. The way your gonna get it is by getting it for a month then changing it back and getting a refund of the difference for the unused period.  |

| Phoned up my insurance ( Tesco ) as Ive just sold the car, and dont fancy paying £100 a month I was paying for the Integra. Asked them if I could change the insurance to my fathers car that I will be driving until I find a new car even though I was insured on his policy. They said thats no problem. |
