Leading legal expenses insurance and assistance provider ARAG has been selected by Hastings Direct to supply Vehicle Hire Insurance to motor clients of the Bexhill-on-Sea based insurance provider.
The cover gives customers a like-for-like replacement car or van, in the event of a total loss of their insured vehicle to fire, theft, vandalism or an accident for which they were at fault.
The Vehicle Hire Insurance policy will be available to more than a million Hastings Direct motor insurance customers as an optional add-on to their primary motor policy.
Commenting on the new arrangement, ARAG Corporate Business Manager George Bladon said, “Hastings Direct is a genuinely dynamic, expanding business that shares ARAG’s focus on the customer experience and driving growth digitally. It’s great to be associated with such an exciting brand and we’re looking forward to delivering a solution that really works for their customers.”
