Car Insurance Companies that only want history for last 3 years?

Hi there,

I had a minor accident early 2014 which I was really hoping could became ancient history when my insurance renews next month :rotfl:

Go Compare asks about a 5 year history, but I've got it in my head that some insurance companies only ask for the last 3? Can anyone point me in the direction of some to see if I can get a better quote?

Thanks!

    From memory Direct Line's Admiral and Hastings only ask about accidents in the last 3 years - or at least they did last time I checked.

    The Admiral group of insurance companies ask for 3 years claims history.

    But 5 years still for any motoring offences, penalties and points etc..

    What a reasonable service!
    Not sure how many years history they wan’t though they didn’t bother at all about my cancelled policy marker from another provider when other providers weren’t going to quote me at all last year.
