Dvla charge £5 for a v888 form to send out the letter with date of disposal on. Takes 2-4 weeks.
Worth phoning them to see if they'll fax or email a copy over as well.

I spoke to them to get that info, said they can only post it out to me, then i forward it to insurer.
PD say that once they get it they will pass it on to chaucer who are the insurer, and its up to them if they change the date of cancellation.

Phone your bank and do a direct debit indemnity? Seems the easiest option.

Sounds like you've been told, phoned a couple of times but put no effort into it.
How can the highest up person you've spoken to be the first person you get on the phone?

Call bank, say your insurer has made the mistake and the bank can get you the money back. The insurer do have an option to challenge it mind you but its worth doing if you cant get anywhere when you phone.

Ah right, if they agree to backdate the cancellation i could get everything back from august, if i phone bank will i not be limited to just the last dd? £160 in dd's, and this final dd of £106.
Worth looking into if they refuse to backdate it though, i will have to wait to get the v888 to them then the insurer make their mind up, so guess it could be a while for that?

Pretty sure you can get numerous months back, not just the last.

You can get it from when you sold the car, you are covered under the direct debit gaurantee but tbh you are in the wrong so you may encounter issues when your insurer finds out.

I've already worked it out, they owe you money, you need to tell them to give you some, what more do you need to know?

The way to make them give me it? They have said its up to the insurer if they are going to backdate it. Which sounds like theres a good chance they wont, so i wanted to know how to go about making sure i at least get some of it back.

That's just so the call centre can blame someone else and give you no other means of communication. I would not consider that a real answer.
I think the problem so far is not being clear, did you work out exactly what they owe you?

160 from direct debits after the car was sold, then 106 from direct debit for a final payment.

You paid the DVLA fiver yet? I'd probably go for that as a penalty to shredding important things.
