Answer 1

Elephant is NOT an insurance company.

They are an insurance broker.

Insurances brokers search insurance companies to find the best deal they can offer you.

However, as each insurance broker gets different rates from each insurance company, Elephant may not be the cheapest for you.

(See, despite what the TV ads tell you, it's not actually that simple.  Not if you really want to save money, anyway...)

Answer 2

they are ok but like Swiftcover based online, so not the easiest company to get hold of if any problems.

Better dealing with a company directly

Answer 3

Iif you are likely to break many windscreens then by any means go with them. But how many do you break?? Or how often do you need the courtesy car?

The only time I replaced a windscreen (in 30 years of driving) I bought one off the breakers for 25 quid. What about you? Been driving 6 months only? uh ok then, how much is "a good cheap quote" ?  

If that is the cheapest out of the 25 you got then yeah go with them, if that's the cheapest out of the TWO you checked out,  keep on comparing.

If you find someone that saves you even only 75 quid per year, that's 30 free windscreens every ten years. You can then either sell windscreens or choose to spend the money on beer or something. Makes sense uh?

Here's another couple of places you can get quotes from

I went with them a few years ago - they are part of the Admiral group - based in Wales .

If they are cheapest - go for them !!!
