Hi Andy,

Apologies for the belated reply, which was due to my working on several I.T. projects that have meant I had to "go dark" from a forum perspective.

Looking at your specific query, Shings (Jake) has pretty much covered it and I would echo what he says in relation to fitting new or getting the original checked along with a certificate reissue.

Either route suggested would be the way to go in relation to the security.

Most Insurers that request security with need this at the time of a theft claim and unless this is forthcoming they could withhold payment - we're just a bit more vocal when it comes to making sure our clients meet policy criteria, as we wish to avoid complications at claim time when you need it the least.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards

Tony
