Please read the instructions.

I'm sorry if my initial post seemed unfriendly, but when we receive almost daily requests that contain little to no information aside from a name and number, it is difficult for us to tell why. Also, it helps to be a bit more polite - please and thank you do go a long way.

Basically, we really need more information than just the name and number. What does this company do? Do they have a website for example, or do you have their postal address?

The original post is very abrupt. No information whatsoever.

That's a bit like telephoning the police and telling them that your house has been burgled.  You tell them that the television has been stolen but don't say who you are or where you are.

How can they possibly find where you are and solve the crime with little or no information?



If you can't provide an address, then what business are they are in?

Where have you got the number from?

Why do you need to ring them?


You must surely have something further to go on !

Or it could be another "Prestige". The fact that none have the 0844 557 0126 phone number is of no concern because these companies often have different phone numbers for the same thing.

They advertise different numbers in different places and they can then look and see how many calls have come through each number. This allows them to work out how effective their advertising has been.


This list of three possibilities shows why more information is required.

If you are looking at buying the insurance, then I would give them a miss if they don't publish their address in the advert.

Would you put your money into a bank that won't give you its address?

I actually rang 0844 557 0126. It is Prestige car insurance, part of the A&A Group Ltd.  They are located at the address Dave gave, postcode TW15 2RP.

They operate from this address in various guises:

4youngdrivers - 0844 600 8950
Insureyourmotor - 0870 770 7011
Quoteheaven - 0870 770 7011
Carinsurance and your stereos - 0844 600 8950
Youngdrivercarinsurance - 0870 770 7033

The  A&A Group is actually Allen & Allen insurance brokers who are at 161 High St, Hampton, Msx, phone 020 8939 3900. This is about 7 miles from TW15 2RP
