Top 10 Most Frequently Asked Questions!

How much is car insurance in Ireland?

The price of car insurance varies based on individual circumstances such as:

· Age · Driving history · Vehicle type · Cover level

For example, a new driver might face higher premiums compared to an experienced driver with a clean record.  Insurance costs can fluctuate over time due to changes in market conditions or regulatory adjustments.

How much will my Car Insurance go up after a claim?

The impact of a claim on your Car Insurance premium can vary and is influenced by a multitude of factors. Generally, if you've made a claim, you may see an increase in your premium, but it depends on the details of the claim, such as:

· Who was at fault

· The severity and cost of the incident

· Your overall driving history

Additionally, the loss of a No Claims Discount can contribute to a higher premium. If you have a policy with protected No Claims Bonus, this could mitigate the impact, but there could still be an increase. 

What is voluntary excess on Car Insurance?

Voluntary excess on Car Insurance is the amount you agree to pay towards a claim, before your insurer covers the remaining costs. It's an optional amount over and above the compulsory excess set by your insurer. By opting for a higher voluntary excess, you can often reduce your premium. 

Here's a breakdown of how it works: 

1. Compulsory Excess: This is the amount set by your insurer that you must pay towards a claim.

2. Voluntary Excess: This is an additional amount you choose to pay, which can lower your premium. However, remember that in the event of a claim, you'll need to pay both the compulsory and voluntary excess amounts. 

How do I transfer my insurance to a new car?

To transfer insurance to a new car, contact our helpful Customer Service Team on (01) 408 4020 with your new vehicle details. They will update your policy and provide you with a new certificate of insurance, subject to the insurer acceptance criteria being met.
