What is Ex-company Car Insurance?
Do you drive or have previously driven a company car? If the answer is yes, it’s likely it has been insured by your employer.
This means that when it comes to obtaining quotations, you’ll need to provide a driver history letter, as opposed to the usual proof of no claims.
Here at Howden, we understand the importance of rewarding good driving. As ex-company car insurance specialists, we work with a select panel of insurers who accept driver history discounts for this type of insurance. This ensures you get the right policy to get you on the road, and removes the risk of the wrong policy being cancelled.
Features:
- Driving history letters accepted.
- Build your own no claims.
- Instant cover available.
- Option to pay monthly via direct debit.
