Buying insurance online
You might use our Website to find out more about us and our products. But if you decide to buy online then there are some important things you should know.

Buying insurance online is a two stage process.

Firstly, you should apply for an online quote, by providing the information requested on our quote pages. Subject to our underwriting guidelines, we will then give you a quote, and a quote number. You can save that quote and we will honour that price for the next 30 days.

If you decide you want to purchase an insurance policy online, based on that quote, and we offer you that option, you should provide us with the information requested, and submit a request to purchase. Stage two is complete when:

We have no obligation to authenticate the person issuing or transmitting the electronic instructions, or to verify the accuracy or completeness of the electronic instructions.
