Tell my Car Insurer?

alltaken

Do I need to inform my car insurer of my bankruptcy? I'm aware on renewal/new insurance it may come up but i'm unsure of telling an existing insurer.

Take a look at your original proposal form when you look out the insurance, was there a question about bankruptcy?

mine had a no br clause so when it happened to me 3 years ago I called Aviva and as I pay for the year upfront they had no problem.
I would call them because if you have a claim they may not payout its usually best to be upfront.

Car insurance were fine about it (octagon). Only thing was they would ask for payment in full when renewing.

Ring them and ask - no point paying for it if they then decide not to pay out in the event of a claim. Most insurers expect you to tell them about any changes. Most seem to accept an on-going instalment but as you already know, renewal is the tricky bit.

Sorry should have been clearer, when I called them they said it's fine just mentioned that upon renewal monthly won't be an option.
