I received a letter today from HBF my insurance company that reads as follows;
Your Comprehensive policy is due for renewal on 18/12/05.
Establishing the value if imported vehicles is often difficult and to overcome this our underwriting guidelines, require a current valuation certificate for all vehicles imported into Australia.
Please arrange to have your vehicle valued by an independent aurthorised valuer and forwrd a copy of this valuation to us. Unfortunately this valuation must be at your expense.
Once this valuation is received, we will issue an invitation to renew the policy.
So is anybody out there a "Independent aurthorised valuer." Please help.
You would think at my age insurance would be a piece of piss but no, this has got to be boardering on discrimination......I'm sure they would send this letter out to someone who owns a Astra, Pulsar, BWM, Volvo, Merc, Hyundia, Daewoo etc etc ....after all they are "IMPORTED" <_<
