I have called up to buy my insurance- the lady said to expect to receive the certificate and other bits I ordered within 28 days.

Do i have to wait to get the cert to be insured or am I insured straight away?
Does anybody know?

I hope you covered staright away because ive been advised from childminder friends not to sort my insurance out untill I have a mindee, and then sort it out the day before.

You could give them a ring and check if you are worried... :D

I know I should've asked at the time, i forgot. I'm a plank.

Spent the rest of the afternoon chasing up FIS because I sent back form with all details on about 3 weeks ago. Apparently they didn't upload me onto the website because they have no record of me registering whatsoever. Explains why my friend who reg'd at the same time has had DO out and NCMA lady out with freebies whilst i've heard diddly squat!

Just wondered if anyone else had asked them and what they said?

Should be fine, as Sarah said, give them a ring.


I need to change mine as we are moving and can't till I get certificate from Ofsted for new address. NCMA said they could change it immediatly to new address.

When they forgot to send me a reminder and it ran out once :eek: , I phoned to sort it and they sent a cover note till proper certificate arrived. That arrived in 3 days.

I know with the SCMA you are covered immediately, I imagine it will be the same elsewhere

Thank you all.
I gathered I was covered as its probably the same as car insurance etc x

When I phoned to do my insurance they asked when I wanted to start it from and they gave me my policy number.

I guess you are covered straight away, cant remember that far back when i took it out, they just send me a renewal and I phone in to pay

I assume you're covered as soon as you pay for it but double check to make sure!

I did my insurance with NCMA the lady I spoke to asked what day I wanted my insurance to start from and said I would be covered from that day. My certificate came the following week with paperweork ordered...

If unsure, call the people who your insurance is with and double check

I think you are insured, after all you have paid for it and are just waiting (as always with NCMA) for your cert
