About Car Insurance
Your vehicle
With our comprehensive Car Insurance, you get cover for your vehicle that includes:
Uninsured driver promise
Our cover comes with peace of mind that if your car is hit by an uninsured driver, you won't be penalised for it. As soon as we validate the details of the incident (including the other vehicle's make, model and registration number), your no claims discount will be reinstated and your excess will be refunded to you. Terms apply
Small courtesy car
You’ll get a small courtesy car to help you keep going while yours is being repaired following a claim. There are a few exclusions so please check these. Check exclusions
Fire and theft cover
We'll pay for loss or damage to the car caused by fire, theft or attempted theft.
Windscreen cover
A chipped windscreen doesn’t have to spoil your day. We'll pay for the cost of repairing or replacing your broken or chipped windscreen or windows. We'll also pay for any scratching to the paintwork that might have been caused by broken glass from the windscreen or windows.
Replacement child car seat
We will replace any child seats that are fitted to the car at the time of an incident, even if you can't see any damage. You can't be too careful with your precious cargo.
In-car entertainment equipment cover
This includes any stereo, sat nav, telephone and entertainment equipment, that are permanently fitted to your car.
UK cover extended to EU for up to 90 days
With our Car Insurance, you can drive away on holiday to the EU. No need to pay extra. Your cover is extended to any EU country for a total of 90 days within the period of your insurance as long as you are a UK resident. Great for a last-minute escape.
All cover details, exclusions, excesses, monetary limits and terms are clearly laid out in our Car Insurance policy booklets. See our policy booklets.
You and your passengers
Our comprehensive Car Insurance includes cover for you and your passengers as standard.
24 hour accident helpline
Accidents don't just happen between 9 and 5. That's why our UK-based accident helpline is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Cover for personal possessions
Our Car Insurance isn't just about the car. The things inside it matter too. So your personal possessions are covered up to the value of £200 if they're lost or damaged in the car following an accident.
Medical expenses
If you or your passengers are involved in an accident in the car, we'll pay up to £100 in medical expenses to treat each injured person.
Personal accident cover
Our Car Insurance provides up to £5,000 compensation for serious injury to you or your partner whilst travelling by car.
Making sure you get there
You can claim up to £150 towards any costs you might have incurred getting to your planned destination (or home) if you're involved in an incident that results in a valid claim. Please note that this only applies to UK journeys and journeys that fall under the conditions of the extended EU cover.
Motor Legal Protection as standard
When you buy your Car Insurance direct from Tesco Bank, you also get up to £100,000 Motor Legal Protection included as standard. This provides you with cover for legal costs and expenses if you ever need to claim compensation for personal injury against the person responsible for the accident, where you are more likely than not to have a successful outcome. Terms and conditions apply; you'll find more details in the policy booklet.
Tesco Legal Guard is underwritten by AmTrust Europe Limited.
All cover details, exclusions, excesses, monetary limits and terms are clearly laid out in our Car Insurance policy booklets. See our policy booklets
Optional extras
And for an extra charge, you can get even more peace of mind with our optional add-ons.
Breakdown cover
Don't be left stranded if your car breaks down. Add Breakdown Cover provided by RAC to your Car Insurance policy. Whether it’s roadside cover for your everyday commute or cover that extends to Europe for driving holidays with your family, there are four levels of cover, making it easy to find the one that’s right for you.
Tesco Bank Breakdown Cover is provided by RAC Motoring Services and/or RAC Insurance Limited.
Upgraded courtesy car cover
If you need seven seats for your family or space in the back for your dog, a small courtesy car might not cut it. Add this cover and you’ll get a car that’s similar in size to your usual one. It’ll be yours for up to 28 days when your car is out of action, even if it’s deemed unrepairable by the approved repair network.
Tesco Bank Upgraded Courtesy Car Cover is underwritten by Tesco Underwriting Limited.
Driver injury cover
For greater peace of mind, add driver injury cover to your Car Insurance. If you, or any named driver, are hurt in an accident while driving the insured car, regardless of whether the accident is your fault or not, this cover gives you financial support when you need it most. It provides a lump sum payment, up to a maximum specified limit, to help support rehabilitation or expense in the event of a serious injury or death.
Tesco Bank Driver Injury Cover is underwritten by Tesco Underwriting Limited.
Key cover
With our additional Key Cover, you're not just covered if your keys are stolen. Our 24-hour helpline will also come to your rescue if your keys are lost or locked inside your car. After 14 days, cover is provided for all insured keys (including your house and business keys) and we'll organise replacement keys and locks up to £1,500 per policy. Terms apply
Tesco Bank Key Cover is underwritten by Ageas Insurance Limited, claims are handled by Keycare.
