No windscreen excess
If you’re claiming for accidental damage to your car’s windscreen or window glass, there’s no excess to pay and your no claims bonus stays the same.
These are just a few of our optional extras. For a full list, check out our policy wording.
What’s the cost?
Your premium is how much you pay for your cover. This is calculated based on things like age, gender, driving experience and the type of car you’re driving. Because of that, everyone’s premiums are a bit different.
Your excess is a one-off amount that you pay each time you make a claim. Let’s say your excess is $500 but a repair job for a dinged-door only costs $350 – that cost is up to you. Any repair work that will cost above $500 is covered by AMI.
You’ll also get these bonus covers
freeBmax
If you qualify for this bonus, it’s free and means you can make up to two claims within a 12 month period without affecting your no claims bonus.
Trailers
You’re covered for the market value, or up to $600, for any loss of or damage to trailers you own or that you’re using.
Repair guarantee
We’ll guarantee all repair work carried out by our approved suppliers.
