Did for several years. Never had to claim, but they seem fine as long as you don't want to call them as it's £££

I use ebike. Fortunately I've had no reason to claim as of yet but I did gain access to a garage recently, and my premium refund cheque came very quickly after updating my circumstances on the website.

Generally a bit expensive for me and they don't do third party on other bikes - it always ends up being expensive to add other bikes etc.

So how come i can get Bennetts to insure my bike and then get green flag to cover breakdown all for £30 less than ebike want..... For the same bike.

Oh and legal cover is a waste of ££££....

Plenty of FREE co's will do it for you.

Still everyone is diffrent. Which is why the compare sites are worth their weight in gold Thumbs Up

No idea.

It was free and not a deciding factor to me taking out the insurance with ebike.

They certainly are.

I use their month by month setup which is okay, and from my experience they are the easiest insurers to change anything on your policy with.

Used them for a few years and made two claims.

They farm them out to Angel Assistance and Helphire, but both were good on all occasions for me.

Yep.

Not had to claim (luckily) but being online it is easy to sort your policy out.

Setting up new bikes on the multibike bit is a doddle and they don't bend you over for listing generic 'mods'!! Thumbs Up

Using their monthly pay as you go insurance to insure a scoot for my girlfriend to practice on.

Got nothing to complain about really. Shame to phone them, it costs stupid monies.

How come they won't touch you until you're 30?

I've had a few car and bike policies with them before and have found it frustrating that you can't call them (unless you want to pay £1/min premium rate).

Until that is, I found this:

01454 634810

That is the local number that their premium maps through to. Very Happy
