How this estimate works

The selected commission is assumed to be included in your insurer premium before IPT and to be fully removable with insurer agreement. Commission removed equals that premium multiplied by the selected rate. The example fee, if entered, is deducted from that amount to calculate the potential saving.

IPT, existing broker fees, other insurer or intermediary charges and finance costs are excluded. Removing Portwood’s commission does not necessarily remove other intermediaries’ income or change the tax payable. These figures are not a quote or a guaranteed saving. Actual cover, commission, fees and total cost are confirmed after a review.

No hidden commission

We confirm in writing that Portwood receives no commission on the policy arranged under this service. Our agreed fee is shown separately.

One fair, agreed fee

We explain our fee before you commit. It reflects the work required and the saving we can pass on, with no percentage commission retained by Portwood.

Clearer total cost

You see the insurer premium, taxes, our fee and any other applicable charges, alongside the cover, limits and excesses.

UPFRONT ABOUT THE DETAILS

What ZERO Commission means for you

Zero Portwood adjustment charge

We do not charge a Portwood administration fee for mid-term changes under this arrangement. Insurer charges and additional premium may still apply if your cover or risk changes; these will be explained.

Savings after our fee

Removing Portwood’s commission may reduce your overall cost. The saving depends on the insurer’s terms and our agreed fee. A lower premium or a saving of thousands cannot be guaranteed before reviewing your policy.

The same personal service

You still receive our advice, help with policy changes and support when you need to claim. The way we are paid changes; our attention to your business does not.

A specific written agreement

Your quote will confirm the zero-commission arrangement and agreed fees. Any insurer or intermediary charges, taxes and finance costs will be identified where applicable. Our standard terms otherwise apply.

No obligation. A clear comparison. A broker you can speak to.
