    Hi all,
    My car has been stolen this afternoon and I am in a HUGE panic. I have just checked my insurance papers and 3pts I received last year on my licence for a speed camera offence haven't been put on my policy.
    I have informed the police that it has been stolen but am yet to notify the insurers because of this trouble.
    The policy itself runs until mid August and I am now fretting that the insurance won't pay out on my claim should it be found wrote off or burnt out.
    Please help as I don't know what to do.
    Thanks in advance

    I think the idea is that you have to actually tell them 1st.:whistle::whistle:. If buy some vague chance you did and they didn't make changes you have nothing to be concerned about.


    I am editing to say I don't know what the insurer will do under these circomstances. However, if the op failed to give info that would have lead to say a 20% increase in premium, surely the insurer has a right to deduct 20% from the cars valuation. Fair to all parties in my view
    Another one to file in the "I got myself in a mess by not telling the truth" box. Of course I may be wrong.;)
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed
