Subject: Re: release of personal details to insurance companies
Ok, I don'y know uch about motor insurance, but I do know a little about
life and pensions etc..
The original question by Jim was 'that he was asked for medical details and
details of penalty points on each driver before providing a quotation etc'.
The insurer would need to know the medical condition of his book in order
to assess the risk and likelyhood of these folk having an accident. Fine.
Next is driving convictions. Same here. If a person is hanging by a
thread onto their driving license, would there be a greater chance of them
losing it or another who has no points gaining some. Perhaps that is
another subject. But the insurance company does have a real reason to
process this information.
As for the Employer collecting the information. Either the Er would get
their troops to write in directly (messy) or consolidate the information.
It is likely that the HR / Premises Dept would have a file on the drivers
anyway, which would then come down to P1 when collecting the information.
How about other Acts? On the medical side there would be Access to Medical
Reports Act, however, that would probbaly be more related to L&P rather
than motor. I think there are a couple of Insurance Acts, but I haven't a
scooby what dates, what they refer, etc..
Hey! There are a few more worms left in the bottom of this can!! Would
the insurer have this part of the quotation fully automated? ADM anyone??
How about the ABI's Motor Insurers Black List?
