Did you not get the option to go on a speed awareness course?
My missus got off lightly I guess?, you just have to pay the £60 fine and attend this course and you dont get the points!! She said its just half a day and all they do is drum the speed limit into you..............
I got 3 points going for a dinner run for the guys at work last year, most expensive chicken burger and chips I've bought Think they stay on for 3 years aswell, could be wrong? Dont think it will affect your insurance though!

It depends on the endorsement type. it could be from 4 to 11 years.
When endorsements and penalty points can be removed from a driving licence : Directgov - Motoring

Date of conviction for serious offences like dangerous driving; for speeding and less serious offences it is from date of offence.
Although points stay on for four years, they only count for totting up purposes for three years, i.e. 12 points in three years = ban.

Thanks for all the advice people. Makes me feel a bit better.
Suppose I'll just have to watch my speed more carefully in future.
Just out of interest, how do they offer the course on speed awareness? I've had the nip and am gonna reply, but havn't been offered a course. ANyone any ideas???

my reply was with regard to the op's speeding points,which he wouldn't have to declare once spent unless that is the insurance co in the spiel they read to you at point of sale includes the 5yr clause which all the ones iv'e dealt with in the last 25yrs have done. my moto with insurance is " If in doubt spit it out" which also works in lots of other situations

Years ago I got a SP30 - 5 points and fine (long story)
I was driving an Astra GTE at the time, My insurance was due the same week and I'd just had my renewal. I phoned them up expecting a massive hike in my premium. It didn't change the price 1p as it was my first offence.
I would imagine you will be in the same boat if it's your first conviction m8.
Good luck.
