How long does it take to get a quote?

You can usually get a quote in around 5 minutes using our online form. For most clients, you can get a quote, review your cover, and pay online, all within minutes.

In some cases, we may provide an indicative quote, which simply means your application needs a little more attention from our team.

We aim to be in touch within one working day, and most clients are fully insured within 3 days if we have some follow-up questions (slightly longer if submitted over a weekend or bank holiday).

Can I buy my cover over the phone?

Our online quotation process is super intuitive and fast, but if you prefer you can book a call to discuss your needs, and we can get a quote for you. You can book a call with a member of our team at a time that suits you.

Do you charge any additional fees?

In short, no. We don’t charge any admin, cancellation, or mid-term adjustment fees.

Unlike many other brokers, we believe in transparent pricing. What you see is what you pay.

How can I pay my premium?

You can choose to pay your premium annually or monthly.

Annual payments: Pay securely online using any major debit or credit card.

Monthly payments: Spread the cost of your premium through our premium finance partner, Bexhill.

Currently, monthly payments need to be set up over the phone, as we’re required to read a short regulatory script. We’re working to make this fully online soon.

Paying by premium finance can be more expensive than paying annually.

How long is a quote valid for?

A quote is valid for 30 days from the date it is issued.
