What is Excess Protection?

An excess protection policy, provided by Jackson Lee Underwriting Limited, runs alongside your main car insurance policy, and reimburses your policy excess in the event of a fault claim – especially in cases of a “No blame claim” which insurers still class as a “Fault” claim on your policy.

Here’s how your excess protection could support you:

1. An incident occurs and you decide to make a claim
2. The cost of the claim is £2,500
3. Your policy has an excess of £500
4. Your insurers will pay £2000 leaving you to pay £500
5. Once paid, the £500 excess is claimed back under your Excess Protection policy (this process may only apply to fault claims)

What’s more, with this policy you can remain protected for third-party claims where the driver is untraceable and uninsured, choose whatever level of cover you want, get cover for motorhomes and motorcycles, and upgrade to a multi-vehicle excess product covering up to five vehicles in the same household if you choose.
