Online Renewal
To make it easier for you to renew your insurance by the deadline of 1 April 2012 we will be making it possible for you to complete your renewal form and pay online with a debit or credit card. You will receive a unique renewal code in the post shortly and you will need this number and your Bar Council membership number to access the secure online renewal website, which will go live at the beginning of February.
Barristers wishing to use the existing paper based system will still be able to do so.
If you have any queries about your renewal either call us on 020 7621 0405 or email us at info@barmutual.co.uk. Our offices are manned from 9 am to 5.30 pm but voice-messages can be left for us outside of these hours.
