Frequently Asked Questions

What is NCD? How does it work?

A No-Claim Discount (‘NCD’) is an entitlement given to you if no claim has been made under your policy for a year or more with the current/existing insurer. It reduces the premium you have to pay for the following year. This is your insurer's way of recognising and rewarding you for having been a careful driver. There is a standard followed by all insurers in setting the NCD, depending on your type of vehicle (private, commercial or motorcycle) and the period of insurance with no claim. The following table shows how the NCD is set by all insurers across the industry. Private Car Period of insurance with no claim Discount on renewal 1 year 10% 2 years 20% 3 years 30% 4 years 40% 5 years or longer 50% Motorcycle/Commercial Vehicle Period of insurance with no claim Discount on renewal 1 year 10% 2 years 15% 3 years or longer 20%

How do I submit a motor claim that involves Theft or Fire or Acts of Vandalism?

Proceed to any of our Approved Reporting Centres within 24 hours or by the next working day with a copy of the police report. We will proceed to process the Fire or Acts of Vandalism claims once investigation is completed. For Theft cases, as the police will need three months to complete their investigation therefore we will only pay out the claim after the investigation is completed.
