The online discount applies to new Comprehensive Motor Insurance policies only in the first year (unless stated otherwise). Promotional or other discounts may apply from time to time for customers who apply for insurance via other methods. The Safe Driver discount applies to eligible Comprehensive Motor Insurance policies. Any discount entitlement is determined by the insurance and driving histories of all drivers on the policy and the number of claims made by them.
