Having done the usual car insurance run around, Iv'e ended up via a broker with an insurance company based in Gibraltar. I wasn't aware of this fact until I received the paperwork. I have already paid for the policy, but it's not started yet and am obviously within the cooling off period.
I'm not sure what to think about this, and was wondering if anyone on here has any experience of any such based companies, particularly in the event of a claim.
Thanks everyone.

A very large number of companies are based in Gibraltar for tax and business rate reasons. I wouldn’t be concerned if they are a reputable company  2003 BMW M5 - 5 Litres of V8 Optimax Slurping Goodness in Carbon Black

Just a quick update, I have decided to renew with my current, UK, insurers.
There probably would have been no issues, but I tend to be risk adverse in these matters.
FYI, the brokers were A Plan and I have to say that I have absolutely no criticism of them whatsoever, and will try again with them next year.

Hi Oldandconfused

Thanks for considering us for next years renewal, sorry we couldn't have you join the A-Team this year

Just to confirm we only deal with UK offices for our insurers the insurer in question has the UK team based in Chelmsford
