No Claims Discount Question

If you have for example 4 years no claims built up and then have to make a claim, do you lose all 4 years no claims or do they just remove a percentage ?

Thanks

    You need to refer to your policy.

    But in general it will be a percentage.

    As above, it will be in your policy.

    Generally you lose two years plus get nothing for the current year so if you started with 4 years you end up with two (rather than 5) when you come to renew

    What class of insurance?

    Motor, you'd normally lose 2 years and so go back to 2 years if you are currently on 4

    Home (and most others) will normally result in losing all of it.


    NCD is not a universal concept and so you do need to check the wording of your own policy to double check

    And remember it's a No Claim Discount, not a No Blame Discount.
    If someone is nice to you but rude to the waiter, they are not a nice person.
