Insurance

[croper1979]

Hi guys i need some advice please.
I bought a bike from Halfords and i was going to take advantage of the free 14 day insurance, but i got refused due to having bad credit history :-(
Can i use my partners name for insurance purposes even though its me that will be using the bike?

Insurance companies aren't dumb. In the event of a claim, they will check the details and if suspicious will challenge.

You should definitely consider third party insurance that comes free with membership to cycling UK or british cycling.

Do you have home contents insurance in your name?
