Company Car earned No Claims Bonus? PH Newbie!

[stevepi]

Hi All

I have had a company car for ages now, I swapped comapnies 3 yrs agoi and I have just taken a new job without a car..

I have heard that some insurance companies will accept NCB earned from company cars, but I can't find ay that will! Has anyone managed this recently??

I have a letter from the Companies Insurance provider, not just the company so I am hoping this will give it a bit more clout as it were with the insurance companies out there..

It's just a Toyota Avensis Diesel 130ps that I am trying to insure, but the quotes with effectively 0 NCB are a fortune!

Can anyone help?

Cheers

Steve

Will the company insurance provider themselves do it?

Did this recently myself.

Get a certificate of driver history off your fleet management company. Basically a letter outlining all claims regardless of fault that you have made. Most insurers accept this as NCB. I went with Elephant in the end and they were fine about it, just sent them a copy in lieu of the NCB certificate.

^ I got a letter of our fleet manager, gave it to Privilege, 4 years no claims, no problem.

Co-op insurance also accepted my fleet letter (back in 2004)

Hi thanks all!

A2Z I went to Elephant who I thought had gone bust until you mentioned them!! They accepted the no claims and by adding the missus as a named driver dropped the quote even further! (that's a first, the missus saving me money!! :-) )

So all in £614 a lot cheaper than having effectively 0 NCB £1000!! Yikes!

Thanks guys
