I think that offically the plate is now owned by the insurance company.

Last time I was at the local DVLA office sorting out my number plate, I over heard a very similar conversation.

The DVLA were willing to put the plate on retention because the guy had a letter from his insurance company.

I guess you have two calls to make, one to the insurance company and the other to the DVLA.

I hope you get it all sorted out!

if the car has been written off and you have been paid out that effectively means that the insurance company has bought the car from you, therefore they own the car and the reg!!!

When my car was written off by Admiral insurance, the claim offer clearly stated that if the vehicle carried a private number plate I had to phone them straight away, so they could issue a letter enabling me to take it off the car.

so does that mean you'd have to declare a plate to insurers when you have a policy, now before you start sure yer guna give em yer reg anyway but say if you had a rare plate like S1 or sumin which is obviously worth a mint that you'd need to add it to value of car as such?
