Short term car insurance provider offers 75% discount to NHS staff
New discount in place from 19 March to thank those working for the NHS during coronavirus pandemic
Discount aims to help those who can’t or don’t want to use public transport for their commute amidst global crisis
NHS staff wishing to take advantage of the offer should email a copy of their NHS staff badge to contact@veygo.com along with their insurance policy number to arrange a 75% refund on the policy cost.
Temporary insurance provider Veygo has announced it will offer NHS staff a 75% discount on temporary car insurance policies so that those who need to borrow a car or temporarily insure their own vehicle to continue working during the coronavirus outbreak are able to get to work safely.
With some public transport services being reduced, and others cancelled altogether, Veygo has introduced the discount for NHS staff to ensure they can still provide care for the British population during the pandemic.
From 19 March onwards, any NHS staff member applying for temporary car insurance cover will be eligible for the discount, as long as they have photo proof of their NHS badge.
Jean-Baptiste Limare, CEO of Veygo said: ““As a nation we are indebted to the amazing frontline NHS staff working tirelessly round the clock to care for the country as we fight the coronavirus.
“To help ease any concerns over getting to and from work we are offering a 75% discount on our temporary car insurance policies.
“In the event public transport is limited, we want to ensure NHS staff can get to work safely.
This may mean borrowing a car, car sharing with a colleague and sharing driving duties or driving to work in your own car. Our policies offer the protection for these unexpected circumstances, so they travel with peace of mind that themselves, their vehicle and other road users are covered.
“Some of the Veygo team have family members working in the NHS and we wanted to ‘pay it forward’ by showing we’ve got them covered, as they have us.”
Veygo’s temporary insurance options can cover drivers from 1 hour for up to 30 days, with instant cover available following a speedy quote process online. Drivers opting for a temporary insurance policy with Veygo can also earn one year’s no claim bonus on Admiral policies by driving claim free for over 30 days during a 12 month period.
NHS staff wishing to take advantage of the offer should email a copy of their NHS staff badge to contact@veygo.com along with their insurance policy number to arrange a 75% refund on the policy cost.
This offer doesn’t guarantee that NHS staff will be eligible for cover with Veygo e.g. if they have claims, convictions or a powerful car.
