COVID-19 update

To ensure we can continue to best serve our existing customers during the coronavirus pandemic, we have taken the decision to stop offering deferred period options of 1 to 3 weeks for all new SPI policies with immediate effect. This means that we will currently only offer SPI with a 4-week deferred period.

See ‘Getting a quote’ below for more information.
