Hi John, we have tried to contact you a few different ways today without any success.
The situation you describe does not match the cover we sell, so we very much need to speak to you please to understand what situation you describe.
If you could let me know a good time to get in touch I can give you a call to get to the bottom of the situation.
thanks

Flat Battery
We had a flat battery and no way of charging it. Within an hour a man from a local garage arrived to jump start the car which enabled us to drive to Halfords to have a new battery fitted
