Need car insurance advice

Hi,
Me and my partner are cutting down to one car, because we cant afford to run two. As we are getting rid of my car I want to become an additional driver on my partners insurance. But I have two years NCB and don't want to lose this, I have no idea how I can keep this as only an additional driver. Can anyone help please

  • NCD is usually valid for 2 years. So keep any paperwork you have confirming you have 2 years NCD and you can rely on it if you get your own policy again within the next 2 years.

    Some insurers allow named drivers to earn NCD, but generally it will only be recognised by that same insurer, not all other insurers. So it ties you in to buying a policy from them when you decide to go it alone if you want the NCD status.

    Just alternate whose name the policy is in every one or two years. That way neither of you will lose your no claims bonus.
