Car insurance

[Pete88]

Just wondering if this has happened to anyone on here, did a thread search without success:


My misses and I got married and she forgot to change the surname on her policy!! She only noticed when She had an accident and had to call them. She has hnot told them yet, not sure if it would invalidate the policy can anyone advise please,,driving licence has been changed.

It'll be absolutely fine, something like that wouldn't affect whether they'd pay out or not. You'll probably get stung for an admin fee of £30 or whether they're charging these days, but I wouldn't worry about that at all.

How is this a thread? Of course they'll pay. You'll possibly find her (and your) insurance is cheaper too now that you're married.

I've got a really bad feeling that my insurers won't pay up now I've had quite a short haircut. Anyone else had this?

How long did you tell them it was when you took out the policy?

You might be ok but probably worth mentioning if you've gone from Alice Cooper to Ross Kemp.

A woman is under no legal obligation to adopt her husbands surname on marriage. She has every right to continue using her maiden name.

Woman called Elizabeth Windsor (The Queen) is a good example - her husband's surname (The Duke of Edinburgh) is different.
