Haven't read a lot good about Youi. Even so it is a pretty stupid thing to do. Pick up someone you don't know and leave the keys in the car, whether it is a proximity key or not. So I don't blame them for not paying out.

My daughter totalled her car, Police cleared her of any blame. YOUI refused to re-insure her.!!

That is not Youi's fault, it is not a normal car theft. It wouldn't be a normal event covered on a normal comprehensive vehicle cover.
If you are selling a car from home & you give someone the keys for a test drive & they take the car you can't claim on any normal car insurance for that either. Or if your missus walks out on you taking things from your house or your car you can't claim that on your insurance as burglary or theft. It's simply not a legitimate insurance claim, people don't pay insurance to cover these events. |

I think Sorted's post was to point out the hilarity of the situation and the replies, and not to have a shot at Youi
Read the whole thread, much lols ![]()

Youi acted well within their obligations and responsibilities, they shouldn't be liable for the stupidity of the insured.

![]() ![]() ![]() I certainly did not bother reading the entire "whirlpool" thread because I just get fed up with seeing morons complaining on the internet about stuff like this when the companies are not doing anything wrong. That as it seems is the same as the point of the OP starting this thread. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

No one is denying it is theft, but because old mate Torque left the key on the seat, he was negligent in keeping the keys secure and on him. As such, Youi washed their hands of it.

Why did this idiot leave the keyfob in the car with a random person. You can leave the ignition on Acc or On with the engine not running, take the fob away and the ignition will stay on but the engine cannot be started. Obviously not the brightest person.

The guy obviously did the wrong thing by leaving the keys in the car, but I've had a very bad experience with that company and wouldn't insure anything with them even if they were the last insurance company left on earth.

If you have a claim and you have not disclosed to them that one speeding fine and they find out they will deny your claim so BEWARE

I've had a **** of a day, I read all 7 pages and, it's pure gold
This guy has his car stolen by a rental girl (it's a legitimate profession apparently) after he left his key on the seat with her in it while he went to the ATM and he can't get why the insurance co won't pay There's 7 pages of him really not understanding how this girl a professional couldnt be a crock A hi light is were one poster uses the details of the story to rewrite the police's Classic Roxane

but I wouldn't go with any insurance company who's biggest claim to fame is about advertising cheap premiums. The simple truth is you only get what you pay for! |

This is proven by the fact he went onto a forum like Whirlpool to tell the story

The poor guy wouldn't be feeling very lucky.
I wonder if the girls name was Amy?
