Budget Taxi Insurance

Budget is best known in the high street and online for its competitive car insurance operation. However, this large intermediary is intent on acquiring taxi, van, truck and classic car customers by offering tailored products.

In order to provide the best possible service Budget have created a specialist team to handle quotations and service the needs of private hire, public hire, fleet and minibus taxi drivers. Insurance cover for this product is available to all areas of the United Kingdom except Northern Ireland.

The main features of their taxi insurance policies include the ability to insure vehicle's for a limited period such as 3 or 6 months. This is especially useful for private hire taxi drivers just starting out with their own car as there is no long term commitment especially if this line of work is not suitable. Standard 12 month policies are also offered and immediate cover is possible if required. Again, if you are just starting out, the company also allow your no claim bonus to be carried across from your private motor insurance which helps reduce the premium quoted. For those who prefer to spread the cost of their premiums, there is the facility to pay instalments, subject to financial status.

Optional extras that can be included with Budget taxi insurance policies include legal expenses with replacement plated cab facility, breakdown cover and a dedicated 24 hour claims helpline to assist policyholders in the event of an incident occurring that may result in a possible claim.
