Corrections

We correct errors in public. Every substantive correction stays on the page, dated and attributed. We never silently rewrite.

Our policy

When we publish a factual error or a misleading framing of UK insurance write-off rules, we fix it. The correction notice is added to the top of the article body, dated, attributed to the editor who made the call, and it stays there. We do not remove corrections, collapse them behind a click, or quietly rewrite the original.

The trigger for a correction is a factual error or a meaningful change of position on substantive guidance (insurance, legal, or repair). Typo fixes and copy edits are made silently. Anything that changes what a reader should do gets a notice.

Logging a correction

Spot something we got wrong? Email editorial@writeoffcars.co.uk with the page URL, the specific claim you're disputing, and the primary source that supports the alternative reading. We respond within five working days.

Recent corrections

A consolidated log of every correction issued across the site will appear here once the first one is published. For now, individual pages carry their own correction notices when applicable — see the dated Correction block at the top of the affected article.
