Excess Reduction Insurance reducing the level of standard Policy Excess you are responsible for by the reduction cover amount.
Most insurance policies include an Excess amount - this is the first part of any claim cost that the insured is responsible for. If you want to remove that financial burden, you can take out an additional insurance policy that reduces the accident Excess amount and covers you financially in the event of this situation occurring.
How it works
Your motor policy has, for example, a £500 Excess as standard. You want to reduce that Excess amount to a more affordable figure. You take out an Excess Reduction policy covering £300, which leaves you responsible for the more affordable amount of £200, should a claim occur.
Example:
£500 Excess (standard policy excess) - £300 Excess Reduction policy = £200 Excess remaining
