I'll be interested to see if other companies follow suit but more generously, looking towards future business.

My eldest sister phoned the tax and her insurance at the begining when she recieved a letter saying she was nt allowed to go out for 3 months because of the Covid 19 she asked them for a 3 month rebate on her tax and insurance they both refused stating they cant do that.

I hope she filled her tank up because petrol goes off quicker if there's too much air in the tank.

Also the price will shoot up as soon as people start driving again.

Yes it also evapourates with heat but I know she has nt the knowledge of cars like I do plus she could nt afford to fill the tank being 75 an oap living off a pension.

Yes petrol will go up now as Trump has just put a load of barrels out there on the market and also has loads of reservers even though he sent war ships to Venezuela no doubt because they are rich in oil.

If the petrol goes off and she restarts her engine with the old petrol still in the tank it will cost her a lot more than filling the tank up I'm afraid Melisandre.
