How to cancel Bennetts

Primary cancellation steps

• Find the contact details shown on your Certificate of Motor Insurance or policy documents.
• Contact Bennetts Customer Services by phone or email (use the contact printed on your paperwork) and state you want to cancel.
• Follow any formal cancellation process they require, and request written confirmation by email or post.

Important practical notes

• If you prefer, send a written cancellation instruction and keep proof of postage or a copy of the sent email.

What happens when you cancel

Coverage end and confirmation

Once Bennetts accepts your cancellation, your insurance cover ends on the agreed date shown in their confirmation. Always keep the cancellation confirmation for your records.

Renewals, data and administration

Your policy will not auto-renew once properly cancelled, but verify the status after cancellation. Bennetts will retain policy records as required by their record-keeping rules.

Will I get a refund?

Refund policy summary

If you cancel, Bennetts provides a daily pro‑rata refund for the unused portion of the premium when no claim has been made. This applies whether cancellation is inside or outside the initial 14 days.

Fees and exceptions

• Cancellation fee: £10 if you cancel within the first 14 days after receiving policy documents; £50 if you cancel after the first 14 days. (UK amounts.)
• No refund is payable if a claim has been made or a total-loss settlement has occurred, or if a claim is likely to be made.

Documentation checklist

Essential documents to prepare

• Policy document and Certificate of Motor Insurance (showing contact details).
• Proof of identity (photo ID) and any proof of address if requested.
• Bank details for refund (account number, sort code or international equivalent).

Useful supplementary items

• Any written correspondence with Bennetts or the broker about the policy.
• Claim history or statements showing no claim was made (if available).
• Proof of posting or sent email when you submit a cancellation request.

Common mistakes

Mistakes to avoid

Do not assume cancelling a Direct Debit will cancel the insurance. If you stop the DD but do not formally cancel the policy, cover may continue and fees or collections may follow.

Also avoid cancelling without confirmation - always get written confirmation of the cancellation date and any refund amount.

Tips to prevent problems

Follow the insurer's formal process, keep copies of communications, and ask for an itemised cancellation statement showing fees and refund calculations.

If you are unsure about refund amounts or fee applicability, request a written explanation before you accept any adjustment.
