    My policy says I have to notify them if any change in these details "No convictions, endorsements... including points in the last 5 years" As far as I can see there's no way the wording would include a speed awareness course.

    Suspect that commenter is probably right.

      Well if insurers are going to start loading SAC the same as if you'd just taken the points then it starts to become pointless possibly in having the hassle of doing a SAC.

      Unless of course, you're tight on points!

        I thought the first three didn't affect your premium or did that change awhile back?

          WHS. I haven't told my insurance co about the speed awareness course I did recently. It never occurred to me that I should.

          I found in the past one speeding conviction didn't increase my premium but they still charged a £25 admin fee.

            The SA course is a consequence of speeding. Like T&C's in our contracts, if its in the insurance policy that you must declare then by not doing so, you run the risk of invalidating your policy and cover.

            If your policy doesnt have the condition, then you dont need to declare. But, how many drivers fully read or get a professional to review the policy for such wording?

              Answering the first part of my own question:

              The premium increased from £190 to £230 so over 20%!

                Find another insurer then.
