How NuBee New Driver Insurance Works

How does NuBee new driver insurance work?

We’ve made buying car insurance with NuBee very straightforward. Once you pass your test and cancel your Collingwood Learner Driver Insurance, you will receive a link by email which will allow you to obtain a quote if you are eligible. The quote information will be partially completed with a number of assumptions relating to your Learner Driver policy. If you are not eligible at this stage, you can call our NuBee Team on 0345 470 2550 who will be able to look at this for you.

What is a NuBee new driver insurance policy?

Our NuBee new driver insurance is aimed at drivers who have just passed their practical driving test.

Your driving score may help you receive a preferential premium when your policy is due for renewal.
