How do I provide proof of my NCD?

Providing proof of your NCD is pretty straightforward.

You’ll need to provide your current renewal notice or a letter on headed paper from your previous insurer or broker confirming your No Claim Discount (NCD) and include the following details:

Previous insurer's name
Previous insurer's policy number
Your name
Policy expiry date
Number of years NCD

Don’t forget to include your Direct Line policy number when sending us proof of your NCD.

The quickest and easiest way to send us your NCD proof is through our secure online portal.

Alternatively we accept original or copies of documents in the following ways:

Post — Please see address below
Email — DirectlineNCDProof@directline.com

Remember, your NCD must be from a valid UK insurer and must not be older than two years. It must also be expressed in number of years.

If you choose to send your NCD proof by post, the address is:

Direct Line
The Wharf
Neville Street
Leeds
LS1 4AZ

Please note that your NCD can only be used on one policy at any one time and it's your responsibility to provide us with proof of NCD.

Is my home policy 'new-for-old'?

Yes. This means that all damaged items will be replaced with a new equivalent. For example, if you’ve damaged a five-year-old TV, we’ll replace it with the latest available equivalent model.

How do I get a copy of my home or car insurance certificate?

You can get a copy of your home or car insurance certificate online.

Once your request has been processed you should have your certificate within five working days.

Remember: if you tax your vehicle online, you don’t need a copy of your insurance documents as the DVLA check this automatically for you.
