any way to check who my car is insured with?
 

Afternoon,

[senior moment]
I can't remember who I insured the car with.

I've checked here and confirmed that it is in fact insured (phew!) but can't find any paperwork... I think probably I ticked a box to decline a hardcopy certificate to save myself two quid, but can't find the email which doubtless came confirming the policy details.

Does anyone know a way to find out who the car is insured with?

thanks

Check your Bank / credit card statements?

You must have paid them!

You could also search your email account using 'insurance' as the criteria

Aha - credit card statement! Sounds like a plan. Thanks
[have already tried searching email, but can't even remember which of about 7 mail addresses I might have used...]

Next job - use gmail as a client and pull all of your email into a single, searchable, account.

I suspect the answer is 'Saga'.

:p

I'm sure they'll issue a reminder when it comes time to pay them some more money.

confused.com :)

Calm down dear.

Don't make fun of the OP ! I have done exactly the same thing with insurance :D

Each year I shift insurers to avoid the price-hike inertia brings with it, and to gain any advantage to new clients. It takes careful filing to avoid muddle....

I'm pretty sure they won't - most insurance are set up to auto renew, and if the OP has asked for all comms to be electronic and no paper certificate....

OP here again - this is me exactly. Fortunately it turns out that Mrs Mac was in charge of filing, so the relevant paperwork has been found. esure, apparently.

I hate it when they do that!

Well I did tell you.

The French/Irish/etc. system of having a little paper insurance certificate to be displayed on your windscreen would have solved things rather quicker ��

No, he has reached that age where he really needs to write things down :) ....comes to us all, comes to us all.....................

done it again...
 

OP here - and it's time to renew car insurance on car #2 in the household, and blow me down if I once again can't remember who it's with...

Time to start sifting through credit card statements!

Perhaps... print out the insurance certificate and put it in the car? ;) If they don't post it to you they should email a copy of the certificate; my insurance is this way so I print that out and have it in the car just in case I need it. Just a thought!

Don't they write to you telling you how wonderful they are and have much they love you by increasing the rate.

If you really need to get the details, you can pay £4 to find out here:

this was exactly what my wife said to me!

If you insured car #1 and car #2 with the same insurance would they offer a discount?
At least then you would only have to remember one insurance company @:-)

There is an app for this
 

I had this issue and downloaded Brolly which just finds all your insurance policies in your email account.

AngieSeller__000, welcome to FT and your first post ^

As the age of the last post in this thread is over two years old, I reckon the original poster has probably got his act in order - or his wife has!!

As this discussion is pertinent to a specific request, which is now out of date, I'm closing the thread. Please feel free to start a new discussion on insurance if required.
