There are plenty of reasons why you may want to add a temporary driver to your insurance policy. Maybe your family are staying with you for a couple of weeks and need to get around. Or maybe you have a long drive coming up, and want to share the driving duties. No matter the reason, it’s important to get any temporary drivers added to your car policy to ensure you don’t invalidate your policy.
Luckily, we’ve made adding temporary drivers to your policy easy and simple – and you can do it all through your online account. So you won’t have to wait on the phone to make these changes. And, as an added bonus, you’ll avoid the £25 admin fee that you’d be charged if you made this change over the phone.
