Create your ideal Car Insurance package with our additional features:
If you’re involved in an accident that's not your fault, Legal Protection can help you to protect yourself against what are known as uninsured losses. These are potential financial losses which aren't covered by your standard insurance policy. Uninsured losses generally include:
- loss of earning
- cost of alternative travel arrangements
- recovery of your policy excess from a third party
Legal Protection will provide up to £100,000 towards legal expenses to help recover these losses.

Claiming for an accident that was your fault (excluding a windscreen claim) usually means you lose some or all of your No Claims Discount. However there is a way to protect your discount.
Protected No Claims Discount allows you to make up to two claims in three consecutive years without losing any of your No Claims Discount. This optional extra also allows you to continue to earn your discount in the years you don't have to make a claim.
We can provide Protected No Claims Discount if you’ve accumulated four or more years of claim-free driving. If you wish to protect less than four years of No Claims Discount we may still be able to help.
For further information or to add any of these features to your Car Insurance policy, please call us on 0800 916 6815.
