I am moving permanently to uk. I am buying a uk car. I have full irish no claims bonus. Some companies that I have approached say I will not have any no claims bonus.
Any advice.
I have never heard of this before. UK and Irish bonus's are usually interchangable. Most of the companies here are UK companies in any event. I would certainly argue the point.
I take it from your post that some wont and some will.I'd tend to go with one that will for the first year and then you can shop around the following year
Get a letter from your insurance agent stating the number of years no claims you have. Provide this to your new insurance company in the UK as evidence of no claims. It worked for me.
