In his letter (“Dimond v Lovell contentious” Insurance Times July 22), Peter Holding of Helphire asks how long it will be before DAS provides a completely indemnified ‘service' for policyholders.

The market-leading DAS Drive Plus policy, which has been around longer than Helphire, fully indemnifies the policyholder against the costs of replacement car hire after a non-fault accident, irrespective of whether such costs are recovered from the third party.

That's why over three million motorists have DAS legal-protection insurance.
