Insurance Quotes/Policy + Driving License Details (Was Banned)
Hi,
I have held a driving License for 14 years.
The first 3 months of my License was a provisional.
In June 2018 I was banned for dangerous driving and given an 18month ban with extended retest.
I have applied for my license again and been given a provisional.
My driving license number is the same as it originally was and DVLA has confirmed it is still the same license
The question i am wondering is:
On an insurance quote do i need to say i have held my license for 14 years as i do have 14 years of driving experience. Or do i need to say it is from when i get my new Full UK Driver's License? As this will effect my insurance quotes quite a lot
Thanks in advance, I am looking for some advice from somebody who definitely knows or knows where i can get the information as the DVLA didn't sound too sure about the matter.
Also does anybody know if i can check the digital database for accident records to make sure my dates etc are correct when filling out quotes?
