  • A letterhead that clearly identifies your previous insurer
  • Your previous policy number
  • Your previous policy expiry date
  • Your name and full address
  • Your No Claims Discount in years

Am I covered to drive in Europe?

The United Kingdom (UK) left the European Union (EU) on 31st January 2020 with a Withdrawal Agreement and subsequently entered into a transitional period which ended on 31st December 2020.

Since the UK Government announced the confirmation of a trade deal at the end of 2020, anyone wishing to drive their vehicle outside of the UK from the 1st January 2021, had been required to carry a Green Card.

The European Commission has announced that with effect from the 2nd August 2021, UK drivers will no longer be required to carry Green Cards when driving their vehicle in the EU (including Ireland), Andorra, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Serbia, and Switzerland. Please note that a Green Card may still be required to drive in other countries, including: Albania, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Moldova, Russia, Turkey and Ukraine. For more information, please visit: https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-insurance/driving-abroad.

A Green Card is an International Motor Insurance Certificate which evidences that your current insurance policy provides the necessary minimum level of cover for driving in the EU country you are travelling to or through. While we await further details, it is best to carry your Green Card for all journeys to the EU or EEA. In addition to the basic cover which the Green Card gives you, your insurance policy provides you with full insurance cover for up to 90 days. 

You can find more information on our Driving in Europe page.

Can I add a temporary change, such as a temporary driver?

To add a temporary driver, please use our virtual assistant who will be able to help, alternativey you can contact us by phone.

Your new certificate should be with you by post within seven to ten working days. Unfortunately we can’t email your replacement certificate.

Ways to pay for insurance

Pay in Full

'Pay in full' is the cheapest way to pay for your insurance. Because you pay a single annual payment there is no interest to pay as there is with some other payment methods such as direct debit. You can choose to auto-renew your policy if you pay in full.

Direct Debit

Pay monthly to help manage your budget however it will cost you more than paying in full with a single annual payment. You can choose to auto-renew your policy if you pay by Direct Debit.

Strong Customer Authentication (SCA)

What is Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) ?

Strong Customer Authentication is a set of regulatory requirements introduced by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) which are designed to make online payments more secure for customers. SCA adds an extra layer of security when you make a payment online, offering you extra protection against identity and payment fraud.

Why is SCA being introduced?

The FCA are keen to make transacting online more secure and these changes should reduce the risk of fraud online.

What will change exactly?

The new SCA process means that the way your bank or payment services provider verifies your identity or validates a specific payment instruction is changing, when you make a purchase online of £30 or more.

How does SCA work?

SCA is a form of two-factor authentication (2FA) and uses two types of validation out of the three categories outlined below to verify your identity. Using this additional information, SCA checks that you are who you say you are, meaning you should feel confident using your card for online payments.

What is two-factor authentication (2FA) ?

Two-factor authentication may already be familiar to you if you use online banking or shop online. The most common examples currently include, receiving a text message with a one-time use code, facial recognition or thumbprint id on your smart phone – both of these are an extra check to confirm it’s you making the payment.

There are three ways we can authenticate your identity, but we will only ever ask you for two at any one time, the categories are:

  • Knowledge (something only you know) – such as a password, PIN, or secret answer
  • Possession (something only you possess) – such as your phone, or smart card, or a token
  • Inherence (a unique physical attribute) – such as a fingerprint, facial recognition, or voice pattern.

Will SCA be required for automatic renewals and payment taken over the phone?

No, SCA is only required for online payments you make of £30 and above.

I don’t think I have SCA set up, what should I do?

You should contact your card payment provider who will be able to provide you with further assistance to get this set up.
