    Fucking ambulance chasers, the only people who'll benefit from that
    scenario are the parasites.

    I think you need a different type of insurance for that coverage anyway.

    You can, in limited circumstances e.g. loss of a limb

    I used to until I performed a relevant cost-benefit analysis.

    I have comp. on the car though, because it's cheaper than TPF&T.

    My insurance situation is generally so precarious that making a claim
    would render me pretty much incapable of getting cover on anything I
    might want to ride.

    You have a valid point there, but one or two insurers I've used in the past
    hinted strongly that the payout for a stolen bike might be somewhat less
    than if FC was taken out.

    sounds like a sales pitch to get you to pay a higher premium so that a
    higher commission is paid

    Could be. Certainly a load of bollocks of some sort.

    Preposterous.

    I've claimed on a TPFT policy after a bike was nicked, there was no
    quibbling over the payout.

    The only time I ever bothered to claim, there was no quibbling but the pay
    out was less than half what I had left to pay on the HP.

    Since then I've paid as little as possible for bikes no one would bother
    nicking, and still chained them up just in case.
