Yes, our policies last for 12 months and require our Woop Buddy, so you should only buy from us if you will be driving the car to be insured once you’ve passed your test. Once you pass your test, you’ll need to tell us that you have a full licence, but this won’t change the premium you pay.

The Woop policy is designed for new and young drivers. For a complete list of all the terms, conditions, exceptions and exclusions you should refer to your policy booklet.
 

However, we would like to draw your attention to these exclusions in particular:

  1. We will not pay any claim under any circumstances (including for theft) if your car is left unlocked, left with keys/key fobs in, on, or attached to your car, left with the engine running or left with a window, door or roof open. This applies no matter how briefly any one of these occurs.

  2. We will also not cover any claim which results from you driving your vehicle while under the influence of drink or drugs. If this does happen, you will be directly responsible for all aspects of the incident, and we will not be able to provide any cover for injury caused to you or any person, damage to your or another person’s vehicle, or damage caused to any property.

  3. If your car is damaged, we will pay the cost of repairing or replacing your vehicle up to its UK market value. This is the current value of the vehicle at the time of the claim – and it may be different to the amount you paid for your car or any amounts we spoke about when you insured your vehicle with us.
