Insurance check!
« on: 17 January 2008, 18:35 »
I was reading this thread at lunch time :- http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=73154.0 (poor guy)

I decided to use the link on the second post down:- http://www.askmid.com/askmid.aspx

Put my reg in and I was not on the insurance database  :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

Frantic call to the insurance broker and it turns out that they had a made a typo, changing a "V" to a "U" so my reg was wrong ahhhhhhhhh :embarassed:

All sorted now, but I would never have known otherwise if I had not followed the link. "yes officer your ANPR database is wrong!"

I think it has somthing to do with Taxing the car on line! Tho it is not much use checking the car next door if yours is not on the database!
