Additional Information

DVLA driving license look up

Since the 8th June 2015, the paper counterpart driving licence is no longer valid and is no longer issued by the DVLA. Some insurers require you to provide details of your driving licence information and as the counterpart driving licence is now invalid, you will be required to share your licence details by carrying out the following process:

You can use this link https://www.gov.uk/view-driving-licence to create a licence ‘check code’ to share your driving record with someone, or you can print the details or save & send it by email. The ‘check code’ will be valid for 21 days.

To view or share your driving licence details you will need:

a) your driving licence number
b) your National Insurance Number
c) the postcode on your driving licence

Making a claim

Details of how to report a claim are shown in the policy documents we have provided to you.

It is very important that you adhere to the terms and conditions shown in the policy.

To report a motor accident or incident (including malicious damage, fire or theft incidents), you are required to call either your insurer direct (details shown in your policy documents) or to call our claims reporting help line telephone number 0843 506 5754.

This help line telephone number is available 24 hours a day and 365 days per year and is provided by Kindertons Accident Management.

They will be acting as agents of Penk Insurance and they may therefore answer calls or call you stating they are Penk Insurance.

All accidents, irrespective of blame or if settled privately, MUST be reported to your insurer.

If you have damage to the windscreen or window(s) in your vehicle and it is covered on your policy it is VERY IMPORTANT that you report the incident immediately to your insurer using the telephone help line number shown in your insurance documents. DO NOT get the glass repaired or replaced by a company that is not approved by your insurer as this may restrict the level of cover you have.
