1. Customised premium
We provide a personalised insurance rate to each customer. Your car insurance premium is tailored to the type of car you drive, your no-claims history and the type of insurance you want. The same personalised rate will be calculated for you automatically regardless of whether you request it in your bank branch, at your insurance agent's or online.
2. Ability to put together your own insurance package
We’re aware that not every customer needs the same insurance package. That’s why we let you choose between three different types of policy: just compulsory third-party insurance, semi-comprehensive insurance or fully comprehensive insurance. You are also have the option to bulk up the cover. For instance, if you want to be covered for more than just material damage, you can add legal assistance, driver accident, vehicle assistance, replacement car or personal assistance cover.
If you take out fully comprehensive insurance with KBC, replacement car and vehicle assistance cover are included as standard. Transported goods up to the value of 1 500 euros are also covered by this policy.
3. Extensive purchase price guarantee
If your vehicle is declared a total loss or gets stolen, you’ll get reimbursed the full amount you paid for it, thanks to the guarantee given by KBC. That guarantee applies up to 48 months after the purchase of a 100% electric car, up to 24 months in the case of a second-hand electric car and up to 30 months for a new fossil-fuel car.
If you take out semi- or fully comprehensive insurance, we’ll invoke the ‘10% extra compensation option’ to increase the amount you get back by 10%, without any formalities, to cover any valuable items that may have gone missing, as well.
4. Add a child to your insurance policy for free
If your children are about to start driving, include them under your policy free of charge within 12 months of them getting their provisional driving licence. This can easily be arranged in KBC Mobile or KBC Touch. They’ll then be properly insured from the outset and can start building up their no-claims history. If they decide to take out their own car insurance with us later, they’ll be eligible for a lower rate.
Parents who take out driver accident insurance for their learner driver children will also benefit from a substantial discount!
