If your still on a provisional then i guess it will be very expensive, probably not much less than it would be for a week or two.

Just go buy mcn (it came out yesterday so no excuses) and look in the back at the adverts and just ring around all the insurance companies. Don't just take the first one that offers it to you, fight them off against each other like you would do when purchasing a full years insurance.

Take out insurance with eBike, they'll send you a cover note as a PDF for 7 days. Then cancel the insurance in a few days. I did that so that I could test ride my current bike before buying it.

By law you can cancel within 14 days for a full refund, so do that and it's free.

So if i take out an insurance policy with e bike insurance,and cancel it after say,2 or 3 days,it will not cost me a penny? What reason would i use for canceling the policy? And can i get charged anything for canceling etc,any sneaky costs. Thanks.

Christ, just man the fuck up and take the policy out. Tell them you left your computer unlocked and your dog logged on and bought it?

If you can't afford insurance then don't ride...simple as.

They might try and charge you an admin fee but all you gotta do is opt to pay monthly and just cancel the DD Razz

If you read the eBike policy document (that you downloaded and checked before you started asking all these questions - you did read it, didn't you?) on page 12 it has the cancellation details. If the cover has commenced, they'll charge you pro-rata plus an admin fee.

https://www.ebikeinsurance.co.uk/policywording.php

Ring them and ask what the admin fee is.
