You must not assume that we or the insurer has received your communication, simply by virtue of you sending your advice.

4.2.5 Only the acknowledgements, and notifications from us referred to in paragraphs 2.2.2 to 2.2.4 above will be accepted by us as proof that any of the matters referred to in those paragraphs were notified by you to us.
