As this may vary depending on the insurance policy you buy from us, we will explain this to you over the telephone when we arrange your quotation.

These amounts may also vary:

  • due to the specific type of insurance or car insured
  • where a higher voluntary deduction has been selected

Your policy schedule will also detail any excesses applicable to your cover, and our friendly team will always be happy to answer any further questions you may have.
