Hi!I have a fully comp policy with TESCO and my windscreen need replacing. Every time I'm ringing different screen companies they say to be aware of claiming on insurance.Have any one had any issues claiming windscreen replacement via thru TESCO insurance?Kind regards

"Be aware" as in affecting your no claims discount?

Tesco are one such insurer where that shouldn't happen.

All confirmed in their policy booklet - page 12

I remember calling an insurance company about a renewal once, as she took me through it she said " I see you made a claim last year", news to me, "Yes you had a windscreen replaced". Didn't affect my renewal or NCD, but had been logged as a claim though.

The thing is, how else are you gonna get a replacement windscreen? By not going thru your insurance it gonna be big bucks. £60-80 excess and maybe a small increase on the premium is very cheap imo. Unless you know somebody in the trade that can get yours out and put one in on the cheap.

I was looking to buy from independent companies and the quotes I got were £110 ish so not too bad.My excess is £75 so I wanted to pay that bit more to avoid any problems.It just that "TESCO - BE AWARE" made me think what can go wrong.They didn't want to explain that's why I asked You guys.
