Can you not just use your site membership instead?

Apparently not

My UKARA isn't with EAG, I don't agree with them charging for it. Mine is with fireball squadron

I don't get it, the site you got to submit your details to the UKARA database hasn't done so because they're not insured??

You don't submit your Ukara away through an airsoft site. You send your site membership to a shop like fire support or zero one. If that airsoft site isn't insured the shop won't create an ukara number for it.

Her if you got a membership through a site that does charge for membership, they could use that money to for insurance

Ahh gotcha, my first site was partnered with a shop so they did the whole thing! Pretty poor effort from the site to not be insured, hope they aint running games without it!

I got my UKARA done through my site, who have a local UKARA registered shop. My UKARA is fine and valid, however when a retailer runs a check, they get a warning saying that the site my UKARA is with, has had it's insurance expire. I managed to speak to another retailer and they confirmed that UKARA is my defence, the fact my site has an expired status doesn't mean I'm not a skirmisher and let me purchase.
