larkshall Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 Hi guys, After 8 years in France we are nearing our return to the cut as liveaboards,we have kept the same banking arrangements ,but how do we insure a car or take out a moble phone contract with no fixed abode, can we just use a friends postal address ? I don't suppose they will accept a mooring address will they ? The big problem is with Experian.ad Equifax You won't have an entry on an Electorial register anywhere, You won't have any credit history, you won't even have recent utility bills in your own name. As soon as you apply for a contract phone these will be checked. Registering a car, or insuring simply requires a permanent address where you can be contacted. I'm sure others on here can advise you better than I, but have you thought about taking out contracts in France, then later when back do a change of address?, just a thought.
