That's way it takes a few days (and sometimes up to 7 days) for details to be updated so until this is sorted I don't believe the MID is of any substantial use in the "No Insurance - No Fuel" service.

A spokeswoman for a major car insurer, which updates the DVLA database daily, pointed out that should a customer renew their insurance with a broker on a Saturday evening ahead of a bank holiday weekend, then in theory the update may not be received by the DVLA until Tuesday night which could lead to complications at petrol forecourts.
