I ask because my driving licence is in my previous address and I can't afford to change it till a months time so I don't want to take insirance out if there going to ask for a copy of licence within 14 days when I can't send mine for correction for 4 weeks then will take around 3 weeks to get back.

Hi, Which car insurance company's don't ask for a copy of your driving licence please ? Thanks

Another updTe. I found my partners counterpart but then couldn't find mine! I emailed them and they agreed to a 6 week extension to send off for a new one

Update for anyone in this situation in the future - one call have got back to me stating they only need the counterpart.

Hi I got new car insurance a few weeks ago & they requested my driving licence. I have the paper part but not the photocard as I got stopped by police & had to give it in to the station & not hot it back yet. My insurance 'one call' are saying they will cancel my insurance. What can I do? I can't afford to get a new insurance & I need my car for school runs/work etc ? The insurance has myself and partner on it, partner has there photocard & paper part but I just have paper part. Thanks

Yeah I'd read that if it was past the timeframe it wouldn't accept the payment

I actually paid via the automated telephone number given with my bank card and was given a reference number

Also another question, the day we got stopped we was on he way to a wedding in Durham . So the court would be in Durham yet we live in hull. Can it be done in hull ? We work full time & have kids . Or does it not make a difference ? Thanks

So it'll be original fine of £300 +my weekly wage +)100 victims ? I thought it just doubled ?

But won't they know that we did pay the fine, albeit a day late due to not knowing what the notice number consisted of, and that the money was returned to us, via cheque a month later ? I'm shocked there taking me to court for a day late! Seems a waste of time ! And just a money making scheme

And any idea when the summons will be ? Are they usually quick?

But don't they usually double the fine ? I don't have a spare £150 to pay

It was an email I have, which I have a copy. If it goes to court will they let me pay by installments ?

Hi I got a fixed penalty notice of £300 in August, had to be paid within 21 days. I emailed the North Yorkshire police this 'I received a fixed penalty fine on Sunday 25th of August for no car insurance of £300. My partner has being made redundant and we are struggling with getting the money together for the fine as we had to pay £150 to get the car removed and stay in a overnight hotel due to the compound being closed. I am writing to ask if the fine can be paid on the last working day of this month (being 30tj of August, which will be 5 days late) ' the 30th came and I went to pay on the automated phone line, it asked for a 'notice number' but I couldn't see it. I emailed the police again at lunch with no reply. After I left work I tried ringing the payment line but wouldn't give me option to speak to someone. The next day at work I asked a colleague and they showed me that the notice number consisted of adding a few of the numbers together. There was no notes on the fine itself to state that. I paid the fine that day , making it on day 27 (6 days late). On the 4th of October I received an email stating 'the offer of the fixed penalty has been withdrawn and the matter referred for a court summons, because you have failed to comply with both conditions of the fixed penalty. We have written to you on 1st October 2013 advising you of this. When you receive a summons, if you choose to plead guilty by letter to the offences, there is a section in the correspondence where you may list any mitigating circumstances.' Today I got a cheque of the refund, but have had no letter re court date ? Anyone help?

Hi Lorraine, Iv explained above why warning was done. They put our assessment on hold till they find out both sides etc. I'm just really mad that she basically told them I'm not fit to care for children , yet my partners boss who also wrote a reference didn't put it on reference as she didn't think it had any bearing on my partners reference or his ability to care for children.
