Can i get proof of insurance via council

Hi All,

Hopefully a quick question before i possibly drive myself mad by phoning the council!

I have been buying a council flat for the last twelve years or so, the buildings insurance is included in my service charges.

I'm about to buy another property, and am busy getting quotes for building and contents insurance.

Can i use the council insurance as proof of no-claims bonus?
If yes, how do i get the proof?
Was a 40 a day smoker for 20 years.
Decided to give up, and haven't had a fag for 12 years.
Halfway through losing six stone.

Looking forward to early retirement.

    With house insurance you don't usually get a proof of no claims (insurers can verify your claims record by checking the database)
  • Okay, thanks very much, i was using Go-Compare and MoreThan came up the cheapestso perhaps i should give them a call to clarify this.
