I'm doing an online quote and Compare the Meerkat is asking this -

"Have they had any driving related convictions, endorsements, penalties, disqualifications or bans in the past 5 years?"

I went on a SAC about 2 year ago but this does not seem to relate to the above question.

What do you think?

I am happy to declare this but problem 2, I cant remember when it was, I have no details how can I find out?

If they don't ask for it. No need to tell them. A SAC is not a driving related convictions, endorsement, penalty, disqualification or ban.

An SAC is not a conviction, an endorsement or a penalty. It is explicitly an alternative to any of those.

Admiral (and their brands) are the only insurer currently known to ask about SACs - and if an insurer doesn't ask, you explicitly don't have to tell.

I can confirm you are correct, I just logged in to my current insurer "Admiral" and the SAC/date is noted down in my policy where I must have told them last year.

Thank you.
