Claim rejection during lockdown.

I have had a claim rejected After having a good record for more than a year from signing up with Discovery, during COVID I missed a premium. Even though I have a reference that I have asked for a forced debit to be done They took the opportunity to reject my claim, as the car was ****** between my debit order being rejected and me asking for a forced debit to pay them. It is ridiculous that you cannot make a payment directly to Discovery Insure. I have now written to the Ombudsman on the unfair treatment.
