Down here, no insurance means they call your insurance company at the roadside. If late at night, they may give benefit of the doubt, probably depending whether you look like a pikey or not and give you aproducer type thing.
If you can't provide the details there and then, they give you a producer. I went down following morning and gave them all they needed. Apparently at this point nothing was ever noted or recorded so it was of that never happened so queue months of shit from Police/Court wasting public money and causing me untold amounts of stress. They eventually found the record of my producer and that I had insurance and also at the time accused.

They are just testing you, wanted to pull you over so made that excuse of no insurance on their system.
Probably the strange mods made them think you might be a kiddy fiddler

Yeah if you ring up a decent insurance company, they will sort it all out for you.
If you ring up a proper shit cheapo one, you just get a computer says no response

Yawn... is it part rent part buy? You gone down the route of getting help from the council where they own ×% and you buy it off them after 5 years or something?

Are you sure you are going to an insurance company and not just some bloke online?
What with the M5 quotes you were getting, maybe your getting quotes to polish the roof and thinking its insurance?

It's not on the database of insurance, my company says it is however. Is this a common thing? Will it show up eventually? Hopefully won't have to go to court over it.
A lot of Gypsies around at the moment so the police are pulling over all of the shitty white vans with no insurance

I have been pulled for no insurance. I was on the way home after picking up my new car, coppers were fine when I explained that I had just picked up the car and swapped the insurance over from my old car, they checked out the reg on my old car and let me on my way.

the only thought i have is although im with the same company, it was cheaper to end the insurance, then start again via online quote than let it roll over into a second year. although i have had it checked today by a friend and it is showing up as being insured so thats good. hopefully nothing more will come of it. admiral say its been covered since 7:50am on sunday which was when i renewed it.

I think what has happened is you have taken out insurance, got the relevant emails/paperwork, then cancelled the policy and deleted any further emails and are using the confirmation email to pretend you have insurance. That was a common trick used back in 1995 which they clicked onto so I'm surprised you have gotten away with it.
Next time they stop you you will play the harassment card and get away with it again and so on.
