Yes - they will.

Just call them on 0844 809 0202 and they will get this done for you, it can take up to 24 hours for the bar to be removed but usually only takes an hour or 2

If you reported the loss to the police you should notify them that it has been found as well.

To be honest the insurance company probably wont be interested now.

A while ago my son was mugged for his PsP and i claimed on my house insurance. A month following the police contacted me saying they had recovered the PsP from someones house and returned it to me after the trial.

I tel the insurance firm and they said as I had paid the excess they were happy for me to keep the recovered Psp. I just wanted to cover myself !

Yeah I was really surpised when i was contacted by the police.

It was used as evidence and after the trial it was returned to me.

Annoyingly the person got a suspended sentence  

I had ket the original box which had the serial number on it which helped my ownership claim.

This is recognised by the police and will help if you log your items if they get found later on http://www.immobilise.com/
