Have secured an appointment..... Anybody recently been through the process? My understanding is that you have to secure individual appointments but the form asks for details of all family members ( just me and the wife).. Can't get appointments together,so I will pitch up with my details and hers......

Car Insurance
Am hoping to get positive examples of a Car Insurance company when making a claim. For years I have been paying car insurance here in Cyprus and luckily have never had to claim.... As always,you never know how good your insurance is until you claim...so any positive experience would be appreciated.....
