No claims discount

[kelfoan]

I have been insured for 10 years as a named driver on my wifes policy. I am about to purchase my own car and take out insurance in my name. Will I be able to say I have 10 years No claims discount (as it was as a 2nd named driver on my wifes policy) or do I have to start with nil ncd

You will not be able to say you have any NCD.

You have to start from nil - but if you shop around you may be able to get some form of introductory discount to make up for this.

yes dzug is correct

[Toureman]

There is one company who advertise on TV that are giving the same no claims bonus to the named second driver, but apart from that, no.

i think direct line will give you a ncd for being a named driver.
wont hurt the bank account to give them a call.
