Yes thanks i did.....

he phoned up using an existing number, gave the plate of the car or his policy number, be that lapsed or not it doesn't really matter does it, did the original policy state what i said above?

It really doesn't matter on what terms the previous policy was on. It had lapsed, this policy is no more! It has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-POLICY!!

er....

sorry.

It's lapsed. It is no more. It is irrelevant.

Update, just in case anyone is interested-

The breakdown service agreed to cut the bill in half, which my friend is going to pay.

Thanks for everyone's input. :cool:

How come you had anything to do with it?

Isnt it the person who is covered rather than the car?

I used to have a policy with the company that he rang to get my car recovered. The car is registered to me, as was the policy, so the bill came to me... I probably could've had the bill directed to my friend, but it was my car that broke down on him, so I didn't mind sorting it out.
