Andy Davie has kindly authorised me to post this on the Forum.
We have persuaded Ageas Insurance Ltd (formerly Fortis) to agree to offer through DMS Tradesman's Public Liability to people in IVA's on standard terms, with confirmation in writing that their being in an IVA does not affect the insurance contract in any way. We offer monthly premiums or annual premium with discount of 10% (rebate of half of our 20% commission).
If you already have this cover, but have not declared your IVA to the insurer, you do not know whether you are covered until you try to claim, and then it will be too late – a large claim could push you from IVA into Bankruptcy.
If you already have this cover, we would still like to quote you, so we can see exactly how competitive we are.
E-mail me your name, telephone number, and when it will be convenient for you to take my call, and I will call you. Our Telephone Helpline is open, manned by Underwriters not call centre staff, from 9.00 am to 9.00 pm every day.
Excellent news John - hope this can help some of our posters.

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

I will be certain to point people in his direction - I met him at my first FF Christmas do and he is a lovely man and very helpful to posters.

Hi John! This is such a big problem for our self-employed posters that you're literally throwing some of them a lifeline. Good to see a big insurance company backing you!
