How do I avail of my No Claims Bonus (Discount)?
A No Claims Bonus (or No Claims Discount) is a discount that you earn by holding a policy in your own name without any claims:
- It builds up in years, so the more years you drive without any claims, the bigger your discount will be, up to a limit of nine years.
- Your No Claims Discount must have been earned on a policy within the past 24 months. To clarify, you must have held a policy in your name with your No Claims Bonus obtained within the past 24 months.
- The discount can only be used on one policy and for one person at any one time. This means that if you currently hold another policy which will be remaining active, you cannot use the No Claims Bonus from that policy on this one.
- You can use a No Claims Bonus earned on private motor, taxi, or commercial policies on your private motor policy.
- To avail of a No Claims Bonus, you must have earned your bonus on a similar policy. For example, for a No Claims Bonus to be applied on a motorcycle policy, it must have been earned on a motorcycle policy.
- You can use a No Claims Bonus earned on a commercial vehicle or private motor vehicle towards a commercial vehicle policy providing weight of the vehicle does not exceed two tonne carrying capacity.
What if my No Claims Discount is from outside ROI?
If your No Claims Discount has been earned outside the Republic of Ireland, it must have been earned in the past 24 months, within UK, all EU countries, USA, Canada, Australia or New Zealand.
Please Note:
- Once we receive proof of your No Claims Discount, we'll contact your last insurer to confirm the document is valid.
- We may need your help during this process, so we would request that you assist us with this. For example, we may ask you for contact details for your last insurer. We may also request that you contact your previous insurer to allow us to obtain information on your previous policy.
- This process may take some time.
- If we are unable to confirm your No Claims Discount, this may result in the removal of your discount, hence your premium may increase.
What do I need to do next?
Once you buy your policy, you'll need to provide us with proof of your No Claims Bonus. To do this, you'll need to send us a copy of your No Claims Bonus Certificate.
Your No Claims Bonus Certificate will be included in your renewal pack from your previous insurer, or you can request it from them if you don’t already have it.
You can email a copy or a clear photo of your certificate to us. Click here to contact us. Remember to add your policy or reference number clearly in any emails you send to us.

Is windscreen cover available?
Car
Windscreen cover* is included as standard on our comprehensive car insurance policies.
This is an optional extra on third-party fire and theft car insurance policies. This covers all the windows in the car, but doesn't include sunroofs, glass roofs, or panoramic sunroofs, as long as an approved repairer is used.
A claim on your windscreen cover won't affect your No Claims Bonus. Two claims for every vehicle in any one period allowed.
Contact us to arrange for your windscreen to be repaired.
*Windscreen Replacement Excess applies should your windscreen be deemed unrepairable by the glass technician. You pay the first amount as outlined in your policy schedule and we pay the rest.
My vehicle has modifications, or I am thinking of having it modified. Will this affect the price?
It depends on the modification you have made. Modifications which affect the performance of the vehicle are more likely to influence the price you pay.
You must tell us of any modification to your vehicle. Remember to have all modifications completed at a professional garage.
Where applicable, you must have a valid NCT on your modified vehicle.
Please contact us to find out more.
The "last year's annual premium" noted on my renewal documents is not what I actually paid last year. Why?
This will be the case if you made a change to your insurance policy during the year, e.g., a change of vehicle, addition of a driver, change of address, etc.
By law, we have to include the ‘last year’s annual premium’ on your documents which must show the annual premium you would have paid if the change you made to your policy during the year had been in place from the beginning of the policy term (12 months).
This is a requirement of the Provision of Information Regulations Amendment 2018.
This ‘last year’s annual premium’ figure doesn't include any fees or charges that were/may have been applied to the mid-term change of details you made.

What is "No Claims Bonus protection"?
No Claims Bonus protection is an optional extra on car, van, and motorcycle insurance policies, which means one claim in the insurance year will not affect your No Claims Bonus at all. After more than one claim, Step Back No Claims protection will apply. Although you can protect your No Claims Discount, your premium may still be affected by any claims we pay.
Step Back No Claims applies if you haven't opted to protect your No Claims Bonus. If you claim, you can keep part of your No Claims Discount - five or more years no claims will step back to two years discount, four years step back to one year discount, and three or less years will go back to zero years discount.
You must have at least four years No Claims Bonus to avail of No Claims Bonus protection.
What is a Driver Number?
Your Driver Number is a nine-digit number that’s located on your driving licence. Its main purpose is to track your driving history.
Where is it located?
On a plastic driving licence, your Driver Number can be found in field 4d on the front of your licence. On a paper driving licence, it’s printed in field 5.
What is my Driver Number used for?
Your Driver Number is essentially your driver identity. Regardless of whether you renew your licence or get a new car, your Driver Number will remain the same.
Information such as your penalty points history can be found by relevant authorities in Ireland if they search your name and Driver Number.
Why do you require my Driver Number?
It will soon be a legal requirement for all insurers in Ireland to hold and share Driver Numbers with the relevant authorities in Ireland. As a result, we require the Driver Number and the driver's licence country of origin for any driver noted on a policy with us.
What is a paperless mandate?
A paperless mandate is where you give your permission for us to collect instalments from your bank account without the need to physically complete a direct debit mandate form and return it to us. A paperless mandate is used to make the process of setting up a direct debit quicker and easier.
If you wish to set up a direct debit using a bank account which is in the name of the policyholder's spouse, civil partner, parent or child, we can still accept the payments, but we will need the account holder to sign a mandate, which we will send to you.
What is a policy excess?
An excess is the first amount of any claim you must pay. We pay the balance, up to the applicable limit.
Home Policies
What is a voluntary excess?
A voluntary excess is an amount selected by you that's added to the standard policy excess available. Selecting this option reduces the cost of your premium.
In the event of a claim, you'll pay the excess applicable to your policy. This is the first amount of any claim. We pay the balance, up to the applicable limit as detailed in your policy.
What is covered by "accidental damage" under my home policy?
Accidental damage is optional and if you have selected it, you'll be covered for any sudden and unexpected damage which is not caused deliberately.
For example, on your buildings insurance, it would cover you for accidents such as putting a nail through a pipe.
On your contents insurance, it would cover you for accidentally spilling paint on a carpet.
More information is available in your policy booklet.
What is Emergency Home Repair
Home
Emergency Home Repair comes as standard on all policies that have both buildings and contents cover.
With Emergency Home Repair, you're covered for emergency repairs for:
- Plumbing
- Blocked drains and toilets
- Internal electrics
- Roof damage
- External glass
- Locks and keys
So if something happens, like a blocked drain or roof damage, you’ll be happy to know you’ve access to qualified tradesmen 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You'll be covered up to €260 for each emergency and up to four emergencies within the insurance year.
What is Named Driving Experience?
This is a discount we offer if you haven't had a policy in your own name before, but have been a named driver on someone else's policy without any claims.
Details of Named Driving Experience
- It works in the same way as a No Claims Bonus, so you get a discount on your premium for your experience.
- To get the discount you must have been named on a private car.
- The end date of the most recent named driving period must be within the last 24 months.
- It must be at least one year and each year must be a full 12 months.
- This means there must be no more than 24 months in between driving periods and no more than 24 months since you have last been named on a policy.
- For van insurance, you must have been named on a commercial van or truck policy.
- If you qualify for the discount, you'll need to send us proof (a letter from the previous insurance company) once you start your policy.
- Please note Named Driver Experience earned on motorcycle, motor trade, or fleet policies can't be used on a Private Motor policy.
My Named Driving Experience is on a company car. Is this accepted?
We accept named driving discounts for company cars as long as the car was specifically for your own use.
If you still work for the company and have the sole use of a car, we cannot accept this Company Car Driving experience.
You'll need to provide a letter from the insurance company saying you were named on the policy and there were no claims.
If you were not named on the company policy, you need to provide:
- Proof from the company who owned the car that you were the only driver of the car.
- Proof from the insurance company or broker that there were no claims.
What if my Named Driving Experience is from outside Ireland?
- If your Named Driving Experience has been earned outside the Republic of Ireland, it must have been earned in the past 24 months, within the UK, all EU countries, USA, Canada, Australia or New Zealand.
- Once we receive proof of your Named Driving Experience, we'll contact your last insurer to confirm the document is valid.
- We may need your help during this process, so we would request that you assist us with this. For example, we may ask you for contact details for your last insurer. We may also request that you contact your previous insurer to allow us to obtain information on your previous policy.
- This process may take some time.
- If we're unable to confirm your Named Driving Experience, this may result in the removal of your discount, and your premium may increase.
What do I need to do next?
Once you buy your policy, you'll need to provide us with proof of your Named Driving Experience. To do this, you'll need to send us a letter from each of your previous insurers to show the period you were a named driver on each policy and prove you were claim free.
We cannot accept a Certificate of Insurance, proposal form, or Insurance Schedule of Insurance as proof of your Named Driving Experience.
You can email a copy or clear photo of your Named Driving Experience to us. You can contact us here. Remember to reference your policy or reference number clearly in any emails you send to us.
If you earned your Named Driving Experience with RedClick under a previous policy, please contact us to advise.

Since 2020, we have issued documents on our Customer Portal:
If you need a copy of an older document, you can contact us here.
Why has my premium changed?
The calculation of a premium is the result of a complex interaction between many rating factors. Even though there doesn't appear to be any change in individual circumstances from the time of the previous renewal, some of the ratings change merely through the passing of time (e.g., the age of the policyholder and vehicle) and these factors can contribute to an increase in the premium. There may also have been changes in our approach to pricing the various risk factors or the introduction of a new pricing risk factor, which may then apply to your individual circumstances.
As a concept, insurance works by pooling the funds of many to pay for the claims of a few. Every customer contributes their premium to a larger fund from which we as insurers are able to compensate a customer who has a valid claim, e.g., vehicle damage or an injury to a third party. Therefore, increases in the costs of the total costs of claims and/or the increases in the total number of claims will have a knock-on effect on the overall pool and will result in higher premiums.
Please find below a list of the types of factors – both customer-specific and general – which are most likely to be relevant in explaining any increase in your premium.
Customer-Specific Factors
Some of the customer-specific rating factors which lead to a change in risk and/or our view of that risk are:
Age of Vehicle
The risk changes every year as the vehicle itself is now a year older, potentially putting it into a different rating category.
Type of Vehicle
You may have changed your vehicle in the past year, again potentially putting it into a different rating category. The make and model, engine capacity, weight, fuel type, transmission, safety features and the cost of repairs are among the relevant factors. Also, based on the most recent analysis of claims, pricing models are regularly reviewed and this may result in changes in our approach to pricing various risk factors or introducing new pricing risk factors, which may then apply to you. An example of this would be using fuel type or transmission as a rating factor for the first time. So, ratings may change from being based on engine size/cubic capacity (CC) to brake horse power (BHP) as our view of vehicle technology and engines evolve with the car market.
Named Drivers/“Open Driving”
Any change in the number or circumstances of the drivers named on your policy may affect your premium. Certain driving options like “Open Driving” may result in an increased premium due to the risk associated with such driving options.
Age of Driver
The risk actually changes every year as the drivers are now a year older, potentially putting him/her into a different rating category. Your experience and that of the drivers who may drive your car is one of the main rating factors used by insurers. Statistics show that younger, less experienced drivers are a higher risk (more likely to be involved in accidents and make claims). More experienced drivers will benefit from lower premiums; however, at a point the risk starts to increase again and this is reflected in the pricing of motor insurance. Also, the type of driving licence you hold and the number of years for which it has been held is an indicator of an individual’s driving experience and this is often reflected in your premium as a rating factor.
Location of Risk
The area you live or work in may have a bearing on the cost of your motor insurance. Normally, in areas where the risk of accidents is greater (typically more urban and densely populated areas), you’ll pay more. The same applies if you live somewhere which has high levels of vehicle crime. Insurers may assess each address individually or at an overall county level, looking at claims, traffic, theft and malicious damage statistics together with the frequency of accidents in that area. More accidents tend to result in more claims, so it could cost more to insure vehicles in those areas. Again, we continuously review and analyse relevant data so that even if you have not changed address, our view of this risk factor may have altered since your last renewal.
Occupation
If you use your car for business purposes, you're likely to pay more for cover as you’ll be driving more when the roads are busy. Your annual mileage may also be an important consideration. After all, the more you drive, the more likely you are to be involved in an accident. Also, the nature of your journeys could affect your price. For example, if you use your car to commute to work when traffic is busy, insuring your car may cost more than if you only used your car socially. Again, we continuously review and analyse relevant data so that even if you have not changed job, our view of this risk factor may have altered since your last renewal.
Mid-Term Amendments
If you made a change to the policy during the year (particularly if made towards the end of the term), this is possibly affecting your premium this year. Any mid-term changes will have been charged on a pro-rata basis until renewal, but the new renewal price will have been calculated using the new policy details for a full 12 months.
Loss of No Claims Discount (NCD)
This would be as a result of claim(s) submitted/processed within the past 12 months.
Claims and Convictions
A loading may have been applied to your policy due to the number or severity of claims and/or convictions incurred by you or any person who will drive your vehicle. Claims within the last five years can still affect the premium and multiple claims will attract a higher loading, particularly for the same cause.
Penalty Points
You or any person who will drive the vehicle may have incurred Penalty Points, therefore impacting on the premium.
Payment Method
The payment method used by you may have caused an increase in your premium. For example, if you choose to pay by direct debit, an annual percentage rate may apply.
Regulatory changes
Your renewal premium may also be impacted by new Central Bank regulations effective from July 1st, 2022, which has introduced a ban on price walking (see definition below). This means that, from that date, insurers cannot charge consumers, who are on their second or subsequent renewal with the same insurer, a premium higher than they would charge an equivalent first renewal customer. We have amended our rating to be compliant with these regulations.
Central Bank definition: Price walking is where you are charged a higher premium the longer you remain with your insurer, and for no reason other than staying with the same provider
External Factors
External factors are those costs which affect the cost and number of the claims we have to pay. The cost of paying claims is the single largest factor which contributes to your premium. Given that the cost of claims is the most significant cost associated with insurance, it's vital that insurers set premiums which are sufficient to meet these costs so the business is sustainable and that we are there to pay claims for our customers in the long term.
The main components of the total cost of claims are:
- The size of awards for injury claims and medical inflation.
- Legal costs associated with handling claims.
- Cost of parts.
- Labour for repairs.
We hope that you find this information useful. However, if you believe that you require more information in relation to the price of your premium renewal, you can contact us here.
Why won't my one time password (OTP) work?
The one time password is valid for 30 minutes. If this time has passed, you can request a new one through the Documents Portal. If you are still unable to access the portal, please contact us.
Will my bank statement stay the same?
Your current instalment amount and dates are not changing, until your policy renews or If you amend your policy. Our name will soon change on your bank statement and mobile phone app. Over the next few weeks, we will display as RedClick.
Will the contents of my vehicle be covered?
Car or van
The car or van's stereo, sat nav, or other radio equipment will be covered up to €635 or 5% of the market vehicle value (whichever is lower) provided they're permanently fixed to the vehicle.
Personal possessions such as handbags, shopping, etc., are not covered, so please do not leave them in your car.
Will there be a change in pricing?
For regulatory reasons we cannot comment on future pricing. However, we always try to offer the most competitive prices for our products and services using data driven insights and drawing on our claims experience. We will continue to try and improve our pricing for our customers.
