Hi R0b
Creating a new thread as requested.
I sent an email and letter on 14/05/19 to PSA Finance notifying that I was VTing, using your template. Due to PSA requesting I complete their paperwork and also questioning the figures (for some reason PSA are claiming I owe another month's payment to reach 50% but that is another matter) we've not gotten any further than that, despite my repeated requests for clarification and urging them to progress this. That's all fine enough, or at least par for the course. I have two issues though:
1. My car insurance has expired today. I pressed PSA a couple of times in the run-up to this, stressing the urgency. I'd hoped to have the car collected by now. I've let the insurance policy roll over, so another annual policy has begun. What do you suggest? Am I within rights to cancel and leave the car no longer insured, as it's PSA's responsibility? I don't really want to do something this drastic unless absolutely certain. I know there is a 14 day cooling off period I could cancel the insurance within or perhaps even cancelling now and instead taking out a month's policy only. Could I claim any additional insurance cost back from PSA? Unless this is a larger cost I will likely let it go however.
2. As PSA are quibbling that I have not paid all that is required (although I believe I have) does this mean that the VT may not actually be valid? And therefore, I will still be responsible for the car until this is resolved?
Thanks in advance for any advice you or others can provide on this
