Caught by a Monitron
Discussion
I've just been flashed by one of the new Monitron speed cameras so I'm expecting a ticket in the mail any day now. In four years of UK driving this will be my first speeding ticket.
I've seen advertisements from people who guarantee to get you off the ticket. Has anybody had any experience with these? Do they work or are they just another con?
I don't mind paying the fine but the points can be an issue. I also understand that you're supposed to inform your insurance company who will probably increase your policy payments. Does anyone know what happens if you don't inform them?

If you don't tell your ins co you give them a reason to invalidate the policy, which isn't good. Think there might even be a legal obligation to tell them - someone else will clarify I am sure.
In my experience, most ins cos kind of 'give' you the first 3 points with little / no difference to premium - at least mine didn't. Essnetially, tell them. The cost of doing so (if any) far outweighs the cost of not telling them.
Hopefully nothing will come through and all will be fine
