What is the difference between motor insurance companies?

In today’s highly competitive insurance market, we know that some people just look for the lowest price, but most people understand that cheapest is not always the best.

Why is one insurer cheaper than another? There are a number of reasons why insurances policies are priced differently e.g. experience of a particular risk, claim costs, overheads or more importantly they may have different levels of insurance cover e.g. courtesy car, uninsured driver promises, no claim discount protection

Take advice and contact Giles Insurance Consultants to discuss the differences between various policies.

How to Generate a Share My Licence Check Code

As you may be aware, on the 8th June 2015 the DVLA stopped the production of the UK counterpart licence on which convictions are recorded, in favour of a more consumer friendly computer database called Share My Licence.

Insurers used to use the information on the counterpart driving licence and photo card to help validate the information you provide as well as helping to prevent fraud and speed up the process of a claim, should you have one. Share My Licence stores all of this information but in order to view this information, we require you to provide us with a ‘check code’ provided by Share My Licence along with the last 8 digits of your Driving Licence Number.

When arranging your insurance, you may be required to provide your driving licence information for us to check on your insurers behalf. Some or all of the information you provide by using ‘Share My Licence’ may be passed to insurers and other necessary companies.

You will need 

Your Driving Licence Number

National Insurance Number
(can be found on a payslip or National Insurance card)
