What are they offering?

 

Discounts for sole driver

The sole insured person on a car insurance policy with Direct Line can insure a second vehicle with Direct Line and receive a large discount.

Many drivers will welcome this but remember that if you make a claim, the discount will fall – in the same way as regular no-claims discounts.

 

No-Claims Bonuses for named drivers

 

Direct Line is the first major insurer to offer no-claims discounts

for named drivers. This means the named drivers on an account will have their no-claims periods, while included on the policy, taken into account when applying for their own car insurance.

It is worth baring in mind that this the bonus may not be recognised by other insurance firms.

 

This offer is a great addition to the firm’s offers package, however, bonuses obtained as a named driver on someone else’s car insurance policy may not carry bonuses the same level of bonus as those accumulated on a driver’s own policy.

 

Motorbike no claims discount recognised

 

For the motorbike enthusiasts among you who are switching to a car, your motorbike no-claims discount will be taken into account when quoting for your new car insurance with Direct Line.

 

Multi-car discounts

This discount applies if an existing policyholder’s named driver or a member of their household insures a second car with Direct Line. Direct Line says that it has introduced this offer to avoid penalising households that have more than one vehicle.

 

Company car No claims discount

If a customer had sole use of a company car and returns to owning their own car, for which they will need their own insurance, Direct Line will take into account any no-claims period accumulated when they were driving the company car.

 

 

Discounts on breakdown recovery for multi-car customers

 

Direct Line customers can expect to receive a Break Down Multi-Car Discount of up 35 per cent when insuring more than one car.

 

What else? Vandalism insurance is included as standard with the firm’s comprehensive package. Other offers for Direct Line customers include eight free weeks of cover in the first year.
