What is it with car insurance in the UK you all seem to pay over the top is it all the theft or just profiteering?
I would just like to say

Gorra ring me castle insurance as their renewal has additional no claim years eye ain't gottid. Gorra ring the alarm company tek peeps to see if they will let me av access via the app or not.

Cost ov repair going up. Less use ov filler on bumpers assit can unset sensors int bumper. More tek more eggspensive repairs. Car crime is still a problem. Especially fer cars where yer get close and it unlocks wivvout operating the key. LR especially suffer wivvit to the extent some companies wun't touch them. Cost ov parts keep going up and some can take a while to get.

But all the car parts are the same over here and the EU the cars are the same but car crime is very low and here the police investigate everything,
If you have a car accident it is mandatory you call the police and thay determine at the site who was wrong and has to pay a good policy

Over ere if yer car gets nicked they dun't always come to look. Sometimes they dun't investigate. They turn up. Have nowt to go on so log it but can't do nowt. Years ov austerity, closing police stations and letting coppers go, reduces wot they can achieve. Our import process has gottid more difficult since br*xit. So parts supply gas bin effected. Even parts we make for our on lr car factories can be difficult fer main dealers to get.

The one going down our road in France is fibre, AND it is on posts, AND the branches of trees rub it constantly. We do our best to cut them back but cannot reach all of them and it means everyone down the road would have to do it and some are old/infirm. So we try to help. But every now and then the signal goes and Orange's people (can't remember who the subcontractor is this week) have to come out with a cherrypicker.
In some cases there has been a mixed line and the copper one holds the fibre up when a post goes down!

Eye has just bin given a temporary installer id for me alarm, by phone, when eye asked if a self install hippo can have access for just their alarm, to the fing in the cloud that allows yer to monitor yer alarm remotely by phone. Asked if it will continue to wuk in the future and he said yes. Will try it later. That has made me very appy.
