Direct Line has announced a change to the way their comprehensive car insurance works.

The company say that “these days it’s almost impossible to protect your car from being vandalised” and, as a result, they have changed their car insurance policy so that the innocent party doesn’t end up footing the bill for criminal activity.

Take out Direct Line comprehensive car insurance and, if you’re a victim of vandalism, you won’t lose your no-claims discount when you claim to have the damage repaired.

On top of this, if you go to one of their recommended garages to get your car repaired, they will clean your car inside and out for free.

In 2006/7 there were 1,895,000 cases of car vandalism*, so it is not unreasonable to be thinking of how your car insurance works in case you are unfortunate enough to become a part of this statistic.

Another great thing about Direct Line car insurance is that if you’re hit by an uninsured driver, Direct Line will waive their excess and your no claims discount will not be affected, as long as you have comprehensive cover.

Plus:

  • If you buy online, you will be given a 10% online discount
  • Named drivers on your policy will earn their own no claims discount
  • Receive an extra 10% discount if you insure a 2nd car with Direct Line
