Mine took 2 days to update/be put on there (car that is) it depends on the insurance company you have to keep calling them up

The missus was uninsured for 2 days .. It was showing up as uninsured after 24 hours.. Reinsured it few days later and was back on Askmid within 24 hours..

This was insured through Admiral.

Lol i think the police use a different database, not one on the internet, that pick and chose when to update.. I wouldn't worry

The police use the only insurance database available. The motor insurance database (MID for short) Hence, the "ASKMID" website.

To the OP, I insured on the Friday afternoon, It wasn't showing on the Saturday evening, but showed up on the Sunday morning.

If I were you, I would call your insurance company to check they have you insured correctly.

Its insured with bennetts who are quite a big company. I could understand a few days but 3 months takes the piss. I phoned them on saturday and again monday but all i got from them was " we"ll email the underwriters then its down to them. All you can do is check the MID". Ive alteady paid for the yer so no point cancelling as i wont get any money back. Surely though this would be somthing along the lines of selling somthimg which is not to standard? Not what id call great customer service though.
