Insurer cancelling policy

Rolandtheroadie

Just a quickie, as I wont be able to get hold of them before Monday at least, assuming they're open Monday.
Car written off and the policy has paid out.
I'd hope to get a replacement organised, but I've not been able to do so. They were going to continue the policy until my renewal date if I informed them of a replacement car within a month.
As this hasn't happened, I've a 7 day notice of cancellation through the post today.
With "insurance cancelled" being a question insurers ask about, I'm wondering if I can get the policy to be considered completed due to the claim?

Monday is a Bank Holiday.

Can you not put a car on the policy within a month of the write off date?

It will stop the cancellation and save you money (They will not refund the unused premium

Cancel the policy yourself, that will sort it.

No refund expected, the policy has done what it was purchased to do.
I just don't want an insurer cancellation on some database somewhere.
I also don't want to say it's me cancelling the policy as there could be extra payments to be met.

Just cancel it yourself.

So the T&C's involved when you cancel a policy won't count?

What terms?

Just cancel it, you won't be due a refund as they've paid out. Either do it online or by email and send the certificate back.

This cancellation won't be one that you have to disclose to other insurers.


You are having it cancelled as you no longer have a vehicle to insure, not due to any default.


You are worrying unnecessarily.

£50 to the broker and whatever the insurer wants over and above this for a cancelled policy.

This is what I was looking to get confirmed, thank you.
