Lithium Positive and Negative Insurers

As an actual customer they’ve replied to every email I’ve sent them within 24 hours. My questions are clear about a specific policy with all the details rather than speculative. I can’t find anything specific in my policy (underwritten by Allianz) which mentions lithium or diy electrics. It does require you to inform them of modifications, but as far as I could see from reading it the only specific exclusion is structural modifications.

They are set up as a business to use their web quote process rather than deal with emails - which might be why they are often cheaper than someone who is answering speculative emails. When I have emailed them they have on two out of three occasions explained where on their web form I should be ticking. The other time they called me back to clarify something.

I’m not here to do a sales job for them but it seems like they MIGHT actually offer a product you want if you are willing to adapt to their approach, when ironically most of the providers who work the way you want simply say no.

"From: Adam (Uk region Marine enquiries)

Good morning Lewis,

Thank you for submitting your quote for review.

The underwriters have returned to us and I am afraid that we are unable to offer terms due to the DIY nature of the batteries. If you are able to get a professional to have a look at the installation and sign this off the underwriters would be prepared to reconsider the quotation.

Kind regards,

Adam

May be worth playing the game as earlier in the thread and asking what a professional is and what standards. Seemed to work well if a little tiresome to execute. Playing the “I just want to be compliant“ card seems to be key.
