Adding the Reduced Damage Excess bolt-on
Our Reduced Damage Excess bolt-on allows you to reduce your excess from £1000 to £350. When you choose this bolt-on, the other features of your cover remain exactly the same:
- You’ll continue to benefit from our fully comprehensive insurance.
- All the drivers registered on your Onto account (the main driver and any additional drivers) will continue to be covered.
- The reduced excess only covers one car at a time. If you have two or more Onto cars in your household, you will need separate excess reductions applied.
- You cannot reduce the excess any further than this.
