My MGS5 Trophy LR has arrived!

There has always been a degree of difficulty with the introduction of a new model but this seems to be at another level. Does the ABI code not help at all?
 
Most people who work don’t know what a IBA number is. What you get is, if it’s not list I can’t do anything. Latest list Tuesday 13th. Quote Me Happy, Money Supermarket,Direct Line, Axa, LV, Aviva, Saga and GO Compare all unable to quote. Tesco completed all the forms then declined to quote. MG’s press office we are working with your local dealer to try to resolve the situation. Just got to wait for companies to put the vehicle IBA details in to the system.
One week later after MG giving me the IBA number, and Miles Roberts confirming them to me on Sunday. Still can’t get cover or a price. WHAT WENT WRONG MG ?
Good luck Forum friends. Bob.
 
Very annoying, ive tried to live chat with Aviva but I'm pretty sure it was either a bot or someone just messaging with canned responses. Will probably have to call them once I know a reg plate (which im hoping is soon).
 
Hi ksoni94. Yes my dealer in Ashford gave me the Reg Number last week but it’s not registered yet so can’t use that. Garage hasn’t registered it yet because if I have to pull out, and I don’t want too. They will be left with a 2nd hand car, so that’s the last thing that happens. So that’s why the reg number isn’t any help yet. All very frustrating and time consuming.
Would like more support from MG’s press office or head office sales team, to sort this out.
 
Feeling quite relieved that I was able to get my insurance sorted, only problem I encountered was convincing the online bot that because I’m transferring my registration number that it wasn’t still attached to my old car. On the other hand I suppose knowing the registration number before the dealer registers the car was handy.
