Female: Hello KGM

PC G: Hi there it is PC Geoghan from the Met Police I need to speak to someone about a policy of insurance a gentleman claims to have with you

Female: Okay if you hold the line, I will pass you through to our underwriting department

Carl KGM: Good afternoon Carl speaking how can I help

PC G: Hi there it’s PC Geoghan from the Metropolitan Police I’ve got a gentleman stopped and he has produced a certificate of insurance from KGM and I just wanted to clarify some of the limitation on the use.

Carl: Okay do you have a policy number

PC G: Yeah, I do it’s MT3574694.

Carl: It’s a Motor trade policy.  Yeah, I might have to forward you to another Department

PC G: Yeah sure

Jessica: Hi you have been passed through to Jessica from KGM how can I help

PC G: I have a gentleman here who has been stopped with an insurance certificate issued by KGM. I’ve got a policy number and other details

Jessica: Okay I can see that from my screen

PC G:  Basically, it says motor trade and SDWP and use motor trade purposes– Looking at vehicle it’s got a load of tools in and they appear to be workmen doing sort of work odd jobs here and there.  Is that something motor trade would cover?

Jessica: No, he just covered for road trade, road risk only and SDWP and would not cover for any other occupation

PC G: Okay right, right.  He’s claimed he bought the vehicle today or yesterday and he’s not able to produce any proof that he has done that

Jessica: Rights

PC G: Em does he have to notify you of any vehicles

Jessica: When a client purchases a vehicle, they have 14 days to make us aware.  If they didn’t within 14 days, they don’t make us aware then they’re not covered but anything like this happened we do need proof to show that he had only had it within the 14 days otherwise it would not cover it we need to obviously we would not ask for proof normally but say if he has like pulled over now, we would ask because he could just say he bought it yesterday or a week ago and we would still cover him.

PC G So it definitely does not cover him on the if he literally going around with tools in the van doing jobs that is not something, he is covered for

Jessica Certainly not

PC G: That’s not something he is covered for

Jessica: No certainly not

PC G Can I just get your name obviously for my notes
