flag Elderly man loses £31,680 to scam roofers, insurer refuses to cover unchecked repairs.

flag An 91-year-old man from Hornsea, East Yorkshire, lost £31,680 to dishonest roofers who claimed to repair storm damage without his consent. flag The man paid for the full cost of the roof replacement, but his insurer, NatWest Home Insurance, refused to cover the cost as the work wasn't pre-approved. flag Dr. Tim Day, an expert in trading scams, says such schemes are widespread and can severely impact victims' mental health, urging for a national licensing scheme for tradespeople.
