This petition was submitted during the 2019 to 2024 Parliament
Rejected petition Allow policyholders to stop declaring void or cancelled policies after 5 years.
Rejected on
As a policyholder, I have learnt that cancelled policies must be declared for life, affecting car, home, life and pet cover.
It is unfair for policyholders to have to suffer these consequences indefinitely hence a fair time limit must be set.
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
Requirements for policy holders to declare past polices is a matter for individual insurance providers, not the Government or House of Commons.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
