To get her car insured to as it costs too much at her house.

How do I reply to this?

Hulk why are you being so insulting towards people who are expressing a dislike for criminal activity? Lots of posters are explaining why this is NOT a victimless crime and why no-one should be agreeing to protect a friend who is trying to commit this sort of offence. Why are you saying these posters are "below" you? I think you mean "beneath" you but either way you are being judgmental and offensive.

I wonder what the monthly all risks and accidental damage premiums are on a large wooden spoon.

Grin @ One of those glorious threads that takes a sudden and unexpected turn into "batshit crazy"!

I'm 26 and have over £2,500,000 in my bank account, I can only put this down to my kind nature.

If you were that kind, you'd have hee haw in the bank, as you'd have given it all to the poor, the dispossessed, the hopeless, etc, etc.

VeryButchyRestingFace I do help a lot of people, and I do give to numerous charities, and I've helped many people out of NetMums also, if I see anyone in need I will always give.

Please do not watch my finances, watch your own.

Willow2017 · 22/06/2017 20:06

Being kind does not make you rich don't be ridiculous. If that's how you got rich I was a nurse for over 20 years I should be a fecking millionaire by now.

VeryButchyRestingFace · 22/06/2017 20:07

Please do not watch my finances, watch your own.

Lmao. YOU were the one who raised the issue of your vast wealth... you turnip. 😂

Barbie222 · 22/06/2017 21:13

...if you want to do it, do it. It's your choice and I know people who have done this. Never any backlash and never a problem tbh

Anyone doing this is helping their friend to drive uninsured, to all extents and purposes WHILE STILL PAYING A PREMIUM!!

Well, if you think it's a good idea to help a friend to pay a (slightly reduced) insurance premium to basically drive uninsured and you're leaving that amount of money lying around in a bank account, then perhaps you're correct and your fortune has come about due to your kindness. It certainly hasn't come about due to your savvy...

ElleMcElle · 22/06/2017 21:42

Also - I have never ventured onto NetMums. Is it this hilarious all the time?

MrsJamin · 22/06/2017 21:50

HmmConfusedShock at HulkJuice!

TaliZorahVasNormandy · 22/06/2017 21:51

Seriously, who let the twat in?

Barbie222 · 22/06/2017 21:58

Is kind nature a euphemism? Most people don't charge for being kind.

Umpteenthnamechange · 22/06/2017 22:00

Be careful everyone. MNHQ won't hesitate to send people raps on the knuckles for calling turnips people turnips....

ThanksMsMay · 22/06/2017 22:08

Would someone not be your friend because you said the fraud they were committing was fraud?
Hmm

ThanksMsMay · 22/06/2017 22:09

All the poor people in the world... are they all assholes that god doesn't like?

VeryButchyRestingFace · 23/06/2017 06:23

I've helped many people out of Netmums also, if I see anyone in need I will always give.

When you say you've helped many people "out of Netmums", do you mean you've helped them escape from Netmums? Confused

What kind of financial assistance do you usually offer? I'm sure I signed up to NM at once time or another. **

Willow2017 · 23/06/2017 09:02

Maybe you should start a thread on netmums asking if everyone agrees that committing fraud and driving without insurance is Ok?

Bet you get the same answer as you did here. NM isn't your personal charity you will get bollocked out there just the same as here.

Fiderer · 23/06/2017 09:10

I think Hulk is Hully

anchor9 · 23/06/2017 09:23

it's fraud so you might as well not bother paying any insurance as you won't be covered either way ?!

Confused ffs

TakeThatFuckingDressOffNow · 23/06/2017 10:40

Shit, I missed the fun...., story of my life. HJ clearly on the wind up.

Willow2017 · 23/06/2017 11:21

Lying on your application (misrepresentation) is a form of insurance fraud, and will invalidate your policy so you won’t be covered if you attempt to make a claim

Straight from the horses mouth!
