'trouble is if you 'withhold information' then you can be uninsured even though you have paid your hard-earned cash for the premium.  Isn't that the worst of all worlds?   :(

It must be ever so frustrating, to be declined car insurance solely on the basis you don't have a job, especially when it's no fault of your own.

Bit of a catch 22, at the end of the day, you need the car to get to inverviews, to get a job - but can't drive there without insurance. Nightmare!

I can honestly see why you might feel this way - but, it's worth being careful with this.

Technically, it's an offence of making a false declaration to obtain insurance.. and if found out, your insurance could be revoked.

Realistically, the penalty in court probably won't kill you, but the bigger implication would come in the form of really struggling to gain insurance in future. Any potential companies knowing someone has made a false declaration before, or who has had insurance revoked, are unlikely to touch that customer with a barge pole.

Note, am genuinely not having a dig - just what I hope is a balanced / informative bit of info.

Have you considered trying a few other companies - or maybe a comparison site?  :y

Perhaps 'retired' or 'gardener' would sound better than 'unemployed'?

Good point about ever getting insurance in the future!  Remember the insurers share information so it's easy to get caught! :(
