What is protected no-claims bonus?

Where a link is marked *, it is a partner link — we receive commission at no extra cost to you. Links without a * earn us nothing. How we make money.

In short: An optional add-on that lets you make one or two claims without losing your no-claims discount level — for an extra premium. It does not stop your overall premium rising after a claim.

Compare the cost of protection against the value of one year's NCB discount.

Non-fault claims may not affect NCB even without protection if costs are recovered.
