Get the most out of your membership
You might have a longer wait on the phone, but we’re working hard to keep service levels as high as possible while looking after our people.
Yes – just register for your account today. It's the handy way to manage your membership:
You can change your car details online. Plus you can update personal details like your name, add in a new address and change your phone number on your account.
We'll write to you in plenty of good time before your renewal. But, if you'd like to talk to someone about renewing or changing your cover now, just call us:
Lines are open 8am to 6pm, Monday to Friday; 9am to 3pm, Saturday.
You can also call this number if you want to add cover or you want to make additional changes.
When you renew, you can choose to set up a direct debit or a continuous payment by credit or debit card. This will save you time in the future, as we'll renew your cover automatically at the end of the year. Your Membership number will stay the same.
If you prefer, you can renew with a one-off credit or debit card payment – we accept Visa and MasterCard.
Or, you can pay for your cover monthly directly from your bank account instead.
