Insurance excess insurance

[Nightrider]

I have a policy that covers my insurance excess on hire cars, but does not cover motorcycles. This type of insurance is relatively low cost, circa £40 for a full year. The travel insurance offered by my bank, Visa infinite card, does cover bikes but only outside the UK! I have just hired a bike for a week long trip in Wales at the end of October (through a reputable rental company) and the insurance excess is £2,500. I wondered if anyone was aware of a similar excess cover type policy that would cover both motorcycles and UK travel?

many thanks

Chris.

I have it. It covers any claim on any vehicle so not policy specific.
Hope that helps

Many thanks, but reading the terms it does not appear to cover hired vehicles, only those owned personally.

Not helping the OP but looking at Swinton's Excess Insurance, you can get Motor-only at £39 for £250 excess, £49 for £500 and £59 for £750 cover.

Varying the Voluntary Excess on a car quote might work out cheaper at higher premiums; my car is only £322 with £250 XS so it isn't worth doing (at £1000 XS I would save £24), but the Swinton policy quote did not ask what I was paying.
