Excess = compulsory excess + voluntary excess

This is the amount you pay towards your claim before we cover the remaining cost.

We set the compulsory excess amount depending on the policy you buy and the type of claim you have.

You choose the voluntary excess amount when you buy a policy from us. Choosing a higher voluntary excess usually leads to a lower premium.
