Do you follow GDPR guidelines?
Our main purpose is to obtain an insurance quote, arrange an insurance policy for you and service that insurance policy as required. Some of that work may be undertaken by us as cover holder of the insurer (where we would still act as a Data controller). Our main legal reason will be one of the following: We are arranging a contract to which you (or the legal entity you work for) will be a party. We are providing you (or the legal entity you work for) a service as an insurance broker or at some point in the future a credit broker and that may be under a contract (written or otherwise) we have with you (or the legal entity you work for). We may be following our legitimate business interests of acting as an insurance broker or at some point in the future a credit broker.
How do I know that I won't be spammed?
The information given to us including your email address is treated with the strictest confidence and within the rules of GDPR. We and the insurers are the only people who will see your details. Every now and then we send out newsletters on subjects we feel may be pertinent to you, and the running of your company, for example - new available insurances, but these will only ever come from us and never from an outside third party.
I have recently applied for cover, but have not received my login details?
If you have completed an online application and been accepted, your ‘My Trafalgar Portal’ login details will be sent to the email address included within the application. Therefore, please ensure the email address you use is one that can be accessed easily and one that you regularly check. Occasionally our confirmation and invoice email may be sent to the spam section of your emails. In these instances, it is advisable to 'safelist' the trafalgarinsurance.co.uk emails to ensure this doesn't happen again. You can also click the link ‘Forgot my Password’ and receive a password reset to access your account.
Is your website secure?
Our website uses high grade encryption (RC4 128bit). Encryption makes it very difficult for unauthorised people to view information travelling between computers. It is therefore very unlikely that anyone could read information as it travels.
What is Insurance Premium Tax (IPT)?
Insurance policies do not attract VAT (apart from one or two exceptions). In its place is Insurance Premium Tax, which is calculated as a percentage of gross premium applicable to each policy. This IPT is taken by us and paid over to insurers, who then pass it on the Inland Revenue.
Can I look at what you cover before I buy a policy?
Our website includes a summary of cover for each policy we sell, along with the corresponding policy wording. This provides you with all the terms and conditions applicable.
How long is it before I receive my documentation?
The summary of cover and policy wording are available on our website at any time to view and print out. Your schedule of insurance is ready immediately once cover has been confirmed online, and can be retrieved once payment has been made. If you pay by credit card or premium funding*, we email your login details to you straight away and the schedules can be viewed and printed. If you choose to pay by BACS, then we will send you the relevant login details once the funds have been received by us. * subject to your premium funding agreement being accepted by the Orchard Funding If you have selected the insurance cover type ‘Employers Liability’, you will need to enter your ‘ELTO’ details in order to retrieve your policy documents. You will receive an email from ourselves with details on how to enter your ELTO details.
How do I change my Company Name?
If you are currently a Limited Company, and have changed your company name, you will need to email us a copy of your ‘Companies House Certificate’ showing the name change. We will then be able to update the company name shown on the policy documents after receiving this.
Can quotations be given over the phone?
We are unable to provide clients with quotations over the telephone. To obtain a quote, you will need to use our websites quotation engine.
How long does it take to get a quote?
Obtaining a quotation takes less than 30 seconds! Simply input your estimated annual turnover, trading status, number of employees and the limit of indemnity you require and a quote will be given.
What will the quotation include?
Our quotations are made up of the gross premium required by Insurers, along with the IPT payable and our Policy Fee. The IPT & Policy Fee are specified at the bottom of each quotation.
Why do you charge a Policy Fee?
For us to successfully operate a streamlined online system as we do, our premiums need to be highly competitive. Unfortunately, this means we have to add a Policy Fee to the commission paid to us by Insurers on each case to meet administration and marketing costs. However, we continually check our premiums against market competitors to ensure the overall cost to you, including our Policy Fee, isn't excessive and remains competitive. If we find this isn't the case, our premiums and fees are reviewed accordingly.
How can I pay for my insurance?
Payment for your insurances can be made by credit card or BACS (bank) transfer. If you choose to pay by credit card your documents will be available immediately for printing. If you choose to pay by BACS, your documents will be released on receipt of cleared funds.
I am reluctant to provide my credit card details over the Internet. Can I pay any other way?
Yes. We accept payment by BACS if you are uneasy providing your credit card details over the Internet. The drawback to using these methods is that you will not be able to print your certificates immediately. We will release your certificates once your cheque has been received by us, or your money has been received into our bank account.
How do I renew my policy?
Renewing your policy is easy. We will send you an email 30 days prior to the expiry of your existing policy, asking if cover is to be renewed and providing you with a renewal link that will take you into your account. Simply check the details are correct, or make any necessary changes and hit the quote button. This will give you your renewal premium and if all is okay, proceed as normal in completing and paying for the cover.
Why do I need to provide an email address?
Our philosophy is to make the purchasing and renewal of your insurances as quick and easy as possible. Therefore, streamlining the process to a complete on-line facility is optimum. For this to work we need to know your email address most used, as this is how we will contact you during the policy period and to advise you of renewal.
How do I telephone you for support?
We are an online insurance provider and thus we would ask you to make any changes or updates to your cover through your personal account in My Trafalgar. For questions about us, our products or your policy you can normally find the answer on this page or contact us in a range of convenient ways.
