Services we provide

We will always provide you with relevant information that helps you to make an informed decision on the suitability of a product compared to your needs. We will need to collect information from you in order to assess what your demands and needs are and to provide you with specific information, for more information on what we do with your data see our Privacy Policy.

Your duty of disclosure
You’re required to take reasonable care not to make a misrepresentation to us and the insurer. This means that all the answers you provide and statements that you make as part of your application to obtain, manage, change and renew your insurance must be honest and accurate. If you’re found to have deliberately or carelessly misinformed us and the insurer(s), this could mean that part of or all of any claim may not be paid or your policy may be voided from inception.
How to cancel
Before deciding to cancel please contact us and ensure you’ve referred to your policy terms and conditions for more information on how the cancellation will be processed and what cooling off period applies.
When you cancel we will normally issue a pro-rata refund less any administrative and promotional costs both us and the insurer may apply however this may not always be the case and you may not be eligible for a refund, for example, if a claim has occurred during the insurance period no refund of premium will be due on cancellation. More information on our administration charges can be found below.
