Reminders
Never miss NCT or motor tax again
Save your dates once and CarAlert nudges you across the run-up to each deadline — so a test or renewal never sneaks up on you.
Plenty of warning before your test
Reminders at 90, 60, 30, 14, 7 and 1 days before your NCT due date and on the day itself, plus limited overdue nudges. That is time to book a slot, not scramble.
Renew before it lapses
Reminders at 30, 14, 7 and 1 days before expiry and on the day, plus limited overdue nudges — spanning your renewal month so you never drive on lapsed tax.
Why the cadence matters
A single reminder is easy to miss. A gentle series — starting well ahead and getting closer as the deadline nears — means you have time to act early and a safety net if life gets busy. Mark a task done and we set up the next cycle automatically.
- Reminders by email as standard; SMS is a planned Personal Plus extra.
- One-click links to the official service on every reminder.
- Mark it done and the next cycle is scheduled for you.
