RELEASE MY VEHICLE – COMPOUND INSURANCE

Please read the following CAREFULLY

Release my vehicles deals specifically with the release and retention of vehicles once seized

You have 14 days to reclaim your vehicle from the time of seizure or from the receipt of the seizure notice or it WILL be disposed of

Appointments must be requested by email to the impound in most cases

It can take 24 to 48 hours to respond to your email and this is the required method of contact. If you receive an automated email reply from then they will have received your email and will address it as
soon as possible.

Things to do prior to the appointment:

• Advise your insurance company that the vehicle has been seized and is in a Government Compound.
• Advise your insurance company if you have had any previous policy cancellations and of any previous driving/criminal convictions and pending prosecutions that you may have.
• If your vehicle is on a finance arrangement, please contact your finance company/contractor and advise them that your vehicle has been seized.
• If the vehicle is on finance, you will more than likely need fully comprehensive cover before the finance company will authorise its release back to you. Therefore, please advise your finance company that the vehicle has been seized and check if they will allow its release on a compound release policy. (Please note that compound release is third party cover only and not always accepted by the finance companies.)
• Please be aware that compound release policies are non-refundable.

Failure to disclose this information may result in the voidance or cancellation of your policy by your insurance provider.
