Car Insurance

No Claims Discount Protection is provided and administered by BISL Ltd.

No Claims Discount (NCD) is a discount applied to your Car Insurance premium for the number of years in which you haven’t made a claim to your policy. For each year you’re insured without making a claim you’ll earn another year’s NCD, up to a maximum of nine years (minimum premiums apply). To find out your number of NCD years, please look on your latest renewal invitation from your Car Insurance provider.

If you have 4 or more years NCD you may be able to protect the number of years discount you have accumulated for an additional cost by purchasing No Claims Discount Protection. With NCD Protection, you are able to make two fault claims within a three year period without it reducing the NCD applied to your policy premium.

If selected, the cost of No Claims Discount Protection will be calculated as a percentage of the insurance policy premium. The stand-alone price for this additional option will be displayed on your price presentation page.

No Claims Discount Protection:

• allows you to make two fault claims within a three year period without it reducing the NCD applied to your policy premium.
• does not protect the overall price of your insurance policy. The price of your insurance policy may increase following an accident even if you were not at fault.

We know your car is important to you so when you take out our car insurance it now comes with Guaranteed Replacement Car cover for 12 months, at no extra cost. You’ll need to select this as an optional extra when you get a new quote direct with us. Terms and conditions apply.

With Guaranteed Replacement Car Cover, you get:

• a car promptly and efficiently from a leading national network, as long as you claim within 14 days
• use of this car for up to 28 days
  • when yours has been stolen or written off
  • whilst waiting for a courtesy car to become available
  • when yours is not driveable following a fire, theft or accident claim.

Keep in mind: Guaranteed Replacement Car Cover is different to courtesy car cover as courtesy car cover won’t be available to you if your car is stolen or written off. Courtesy car cover is also dependent on a car being available from the garage, and is only available with comprehensive cover.

A refundable fuel deposit is required when obtaining the replacement car. This cover is only available in the UK or Isle of Man.

Guaranteed Replacement Car Cover is administered by ACM ULR Limited and underwritten by UK General Insurance Limited, on behalf of Great Lakes Insurance SE.

As the driver, both you and your passengers could be left out of pocket following an accident. Our enhanced motor legal protection is 5* Defaqto rated and is here to support you. The 24/7 legal helpline means there's always someone at the other end of the phone to offer assistance. If you have an accident that wasn’t your fault, our motor legal protection policy provides cover for up to £100,000 of legal expenses to help with:

• obtaining compensation for personal injury and medical expenses
• recovering losses resulting from the accident (e.g. policy, excess, loss of earnings, phone bills and travel costs)
• recovering repair costs if not already covered by comprehensive car insurance
• recovering vehicle hire charges

As long as there are reasonable prospects of you winning your case and the estimated legal costs don’t outweigh the amount you're claiming, a solicitor will be instructed to act on your behalf, giving you peace of mind and a hassle-free solution when you need it most.

You'll also receive motor prosecution defence cover if you're facing suspension or disqualification of your driving licence. You'll receive up to £20,000 of legal expenses to help with your case, as long as there is a reasonable chance of avoiding suspension or disqualification. This cover doesn’t include fines or penalties or any charges relating to alcohol or drugs.

This cover only costs £30.99 per year.
