We cannot guarantee that any of our Partners will issue you with a quotation at that price or at all, and cannot accept any responsibility if the estimates we have given you differ from the quotation offered by our Partners.

When you have completed the form(s), we will pass the information you have provided on to our selected Partners, one or more of whom may then contact you directly to discuss your requirements in more detail and may provide you with a full quotation for the insurance you require. PLEASE NOTE that any dealings you have with one of our Partners will be based on that Partners’ terms of business. We cannot accept any responsibility for our Partners’ terms of business, and you should ensure that you have checked and are happy with those terms.
