Some of the Strangest Insurance Claims

In the News

I have just read some of the most unusual insurance claims people have registered

One was the theft of Woody the Cuprinol man” from the tv adverts in the 90s

Another fascinating one was the Dundee whisky fire when vast amounts of whisky ran from a warehouse fire causing rivers of whisky aflame to run through the streets

I expect there are a lot more unusual claims than these happening every day we just don't hear about them

Remember a good Jasper Carrott Sketch about auto insurance claims. Think this may have been one

“The other car collided with mine without giving me warning of its intention.

There's an insurance ad on YouTube claiming if you get hurt they'll try to compensate you or whatever.

Countries specify making ads about drugs, insurance, gambling, vi@gra / sex stuff, or some other stupid crap that should be avoided. They still wonder why people hate ads and/or Live TV.

If people get addicted to gambling they may lose everything they own, but of course they don't care about that.

Edit: It's "Injury Lawyers 4U"

Ugh, hate when companies just use "2" or "4" so lazily.

I specifically hate gambling adverts, they try to make them funny and friendly to get people addicted

Kids who are pushed towards sports by their parent(s) think they're an expert and want to bet on those websites. I mean, that's what happened to my nephew so god speed.
