How do I check your regulations?
Please visit the link provided above to see our regulations. However, if you have any concerns about us, or an insurer we are using, please contact our team who will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
How do you work?
A client will come to use with a specific insurance need. We will take all the details we need, then go away and get as many quotes as we can. This may be instant over the phone, or we may have to go away and come back to the client once we have the quotes together. The quotes will then be presented to the client, with all the information laid out. This is so they can make an informed decision on the best policy for their needs. Once decided, we will set up the policy and get the documents sent straight to their inbox.
Who do you work with?
Our team work with a wide panel of insurers, meaning when you approach us for a quote we work on behalf of you to get as many offers as we can. We will then help you to compare the different covers, helping you to choose the most suitable policy for your needs at the best price.
We always make sure we are happy with the insurers we use, so we are confident that they are a suitable option for our customers.
Why have I been asked for Bank Transfer to your account?
Some policies we sell are in areas of high fraud risk. Impounded Insurance, for example, has previously had a high rate of card fraud in payments. As a result, Alternative Insurance Brokers do not take card payments for policies of this type and will ask for payment to be made via bank transfer.
We have years of experience helping our clients find the perfect policy.
