No More Covid Rules but Fuel Costs Fly High

There are a couple of points to consider in this week’s post, and neither are that great, to be honest. But as always, we’ll try to put a nice spin on it.

So grab yourself a cuppa and grab some biscuits. Biscuits make everything better, after all.

Double-check your car insurance policy before returning to the office

With many Brits working from home for the majority of the past 2 years, it’s no surprise that office workers are shrugging back to their desks.

No more can we roll out of bed fifteen minutes before we clock in, nor can we only dress from the waist up. It’s bittersweet, that’s all we’re saying.

However, you may want to check your car insurance policy if you fall into the category of a worker returning to the office. If you are now using your vehicle to commute to work, you should ensure you’ve clearly got that within your policy.

The need for a motor to take one to work became redundant for many during lockdowns. And so, to save a few extra pennies, social, domestic, pleasure and commuting, became just social, domestic and pleasure.

Was that you? If so, it’s time to reinstate that part of your policy, otherwise, you could find it void. Especially if you find yourself needing to make a claim whilst commuting to and from work.

Why are fuel costs soaring?

If you’ve felt your wallet or purse is a bit lighter recently, it’s no surprise. With the cost of living increasing significantly, fuel is no different.

With more of us on the road once again after Boris Johnson declared all (and that’s every single one) Covid restrictions be gone, it isn’t too shocking that fuel costs are climbing. However, the rate at which they are climbing is quite steep.

Add the current Russia and Ukraine war into the mix, and the uncertainty of gas and fuel supply has sent them rocketing.

These are some uncertain times we are living in at the moment.
