Excess Insurance

Since many direct companies issue policies with a high excess you may wish to take out excess insurance. An excess insurance policy pays a fixed amount, typically the excess on your policy, should you make a claim that exceeds the excess on your policy and you can't recover (windscreen claims are not covered). Rates start from £25.20 and can be bought online - you don't need to insure your car with us to qualify. If you are interested, click here for information about excess insurance for your car.
