FAQs - your questions answered
If the accident was your fault and you have our Excess Protection policy, you can make up to two claims for up to £500 each to refund the excesses you have to pay in the event of an accident, fire, theft or vandalism claim.
If the accident wasn’t your fault and you have bought our Rider’s Legal Protection policy, our solicitors will recover your excess along with any other out of pocket expenses from the responsible person’s insurance company. We will put you in touch with a solicitor who can arrange this for you when you call to make your claim.
