Excess Protection Cover
Excess protection alongside your Lexham insurance policy will enable you to reimburse your excess in the event of a claim.
If your insurance policy is either Third-party fire and theft (TPF&T) or Fully Comprehensive, an excess will apply to any claim for either the 'theft of', or 'damage to' your vehicle.
You can now take out a separate Excess Protection Cover to reimburse this excess in the event of a claim. This means that your claim could effectively be excess-free if you select the appropriate level of cover.
Excess Protection Insurance is underwritten by Alwyn.

The cover is an annual limit, so if a first claim doesn’t use the whole amount, the balance is available for another claim in the same year.
Conditions and exclusions include but not limited to: Cover applies while the bike is being used for social use or commuting to your usual place or places of work only – not for any business use I.E Instructor/Delivery/Courier. You cannot Claim from the Policy in the first 14 days of the Inception Date.
