Has anybody else had this; get quote for insurance, Off go compare or some other comparison site,  You pay your fee, Then they write wanting proof your no claims bonus, fair enough, But they claim that they never revive it, even if you have sent it registered post.

Threat to cancel your insurance or premiums go up and try to charge admin fee...upwards of 20 quid.

Had this happen on both car and van within last 2 months. Low and behold it has happened to friends as well. Direct line were another culprit

Enough people trying to take away our hard earned as it is

I always ask to email it to them, cant argue with that and you dont loose your no claims sheet.

Yep happened to me last year. I sent the NCB proof 1st class recorded, but they said they never received it and royal mail were no help at all in letting me know if it had been delivered and signed for or not.
I managed in the end to talk to someone in the insurance company who sorted it out but was a load of hassle.
Next time I will email it to them.

When I was driving a taxi we were always fighting off bogus insurance claims from dubious characters. They see a taxi and know you have to have fully comprehensive insurance.

I had one, several other people I know have had them, they say you hit their car but never stopped. Mine was from a bloke called Mr Osman Ali, it went on for about two years, kept getting threatening letters. Then when I renewed my insurance I changed companies and the old insurer, Norwich Union paid him out! Without telling me first. Big money too, personal injury, loss of earnings the lot.

Then Norwich Union wrote to my new insurer and revoked my no claims bonus. That is one of the many reasons I am no longer driving a taxi. Just sick of the scams, you are just too vunerable

i would be interested to read of any potential scams pulled on window cleaners. by customers/passers by , or others.     so that im ready for them

i was a bit like VINCE above.in my former job,a car mechanic, i was at high risk of a scammer.nobody did try it on big time but i absolutely knew one day some chancer would. 
 before i started cleaning. i sat in my car on my first day with my ladder,trying hard to think of ways a scammer/con artist could rob me blind.
