Car insurance - just got FPN for 3 points

Hanging up my phone while stopped at a red light! Pretty harsh but worried about my insurance. Do I need to call my insurance company to tell them immediately?

    read your policy

    mine has three sections........

    Must tell them before............. new car/drivers/address

    must tell them asap................. incidents/accidents

    must tell them at renewal.........convictions

    I need to renew within the month and looks like it's adding an extra £200/year :( Is this normal?

    The points aren't actually there yet, haven't sent off my licence yet.

    doesn't matter if it's normal, the advice is always shop around, almost invariably you will find someone else who will do a better deal (maybe even your existing insurer but as a new policy holder rather than a renewal)
