ECICS Motor Excess Protector Insurance reimburses the excess amount you are required to pay under your motor insurance policy when you make a claim. It helps reduce your out-of-pocket expenses after an accident.

The deductible helps to prevent frequent claims and encourages responsible use of the policy. It also keeps the overall premium more affordable for all policyholders.

You do not need to choose a sum insured that is equivalent to your excess amount. There is no limit on the number of claims as long as the total claim does not exceed your chosen sum insured per policy year. However, if your chosen sum insured is lower than the excess imposed on your motor insurance policy, ECICS will only pay up to the sum insured during the period of insurance.

In the event of an accident involving your registered vehicle, your insurer for your motor insurance policy must have paid out a claim amount higher than your policy excess in order for you to seek reimbursement on the excess you have paid from your ECICS Motor Excess Protector Insurance Policy. If the claim amount paid out is lower than your policy excess, you will not be able to seek reimbursement from your ECICS Motor Excess Protector Insurance Policy.

No, you can purchase ECICS Motor Excess Protector Insurance Policy any time. However, do note that there is a 14-day waiting period from the commencement date of policy. Coverage will only start after the 14-day waiting period.
