I called to report my car as stolen. I had to embarrassingly call back 2 days later apologising and feeling very foolish as my car was not stolen. I had forgotten I had taken it to the garage the day before to get some work done on it!! It only came to light when the garage called me to tell me the car was ready to be picked up!!

I called my insurance company to report an accidental damage claim on my family car, there was a large dent in the bonnet. I told the assistant that the local kids had kicked a football off it as this is what my husband had told me had happened. It turned out that my husband had taken the car and the kids to the Safari park and a camel decided to use the car as a sofa and sat on it!! I had warned my husband not to take her car as I always worried something would happen to it. When he got home he lied and said it was kids with a football!
