Struggling to find the right cover because of your driving history or unusual car? Insurance broker Acorn Insurance claims it’ll still find the right cover for you, even if you have an imported car or a previous conviction.
Acorn Insurance is a broker with more than 30 years’ experience in providing specialist car, van and taxi insurance as well as a range of other products such as home insurance.
Established in 1981, Acorn specialises in providing tailored car insurance for learner drivers, drivers with convictions and those with imported cars.
Acorn Insurance’s Third Party cover
Third party cover is the minimum level of cover that Acorn Insurance offers. All drivers in the UK are legally obliged to have at least this insurance. If you are responsible for causing an accident, you’ll be covered for damage to third party vehicles or property. It won’t however, cover any damage to your own car.
Acorn Insurance’s Third Party Fire and Theft cover
This provides the same level of cover as third party but will also offer protection against any fire damage to your car or theft of your car.
Acorn Insurance’s Comprehensive cover
This is the highest level of cover available. It gives the same protection as the other levels as well as insuring your vehicle against accidental damage and vandalism. It can be cheaper than Third Party, or TPFT, so it’s always worth checking.
Cover benefits | Third party | Third party, fire and theft | Comprehensive |
---|---|---|---|
Liability to other people and property | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Fire and theft | ✓ | ✓ | |
Accidental damage | ✓ | ||
Courtesy car | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Legal expenses | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Glass windscreen cover | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |

Acorn Insurance can provide a range of additional protection to bolt onto your policy, including:
Your cover through Acorn Insurance is likely to become invalid if any of the following arises:
Check your policy for further details to confirm your cover is valid.
Your insurance excess is the amount of money you have agreed to pay towards a claim. Your insurer won’t pay out for a claim that costs less than your excess.
A voluntary excess is normally an amount set by you when taking out a policy. You’ll have the option of adding or increasing a voluntary excess, which could in turn reduce your premium.
A compulsory excess amount might vary depending on the age of your car and your driving experience.
You’ll find details about any compulsory or voluntary excesses in your policy document.
You should call the Acorn Insurance claims line on 0345 092 0700. This is a 24-hour claims notification line open seven days a week.
If you’d like Acorn to call you back, you can text your Acorn Insurance policy number along with your vehicle registration number to 83118.
Either way, you’ll eventually need to provide your details and all the facts about the incident.
And it’s vital that you let your insurer know about an incident within 24 hours, even if it’s not your fault. Failure to do this could result in a rejected claim.
