Get Your MCE Insurance Refund Fast and Easy

Founded in 1975, MCE Insurance Limited was an independent policy provider specialising in motorcycle cover. However, on November 19, 2021, the insurance firm changed its name to Green Realization 123 Limited through a special resolution. MCE Insurance is now brokered by MCE UK, which provides various administrative services, including handling claims, while the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) handles customer compensation.

The new administrative structure may overwhelm you due to the division of duties, causing you to feel frustrated. In addition, the company cancelled policy covers of over 105,000 motorbike policyholders, and you may be a victim if you had an insurance cover. The spiralling vibe in the company can compel you to cancel your cover and request a refund.

The FSCS is taking its time when rolling out refunds to policyholders, and the process can take weeks or months. Use DoNotPay's fast and efficient features to help you with ease.

What Is the MCE Insurance Refund Policy?

You are free to cancel your policy within the first 14 days after entering into the contract with MCE insurance. You can refer to the 14 days as the cooling-off period. If you cancel your policy during the cooling-off period, you will pay a cancellation fee of £45 to cover the administrative cost of setting up and cancelling your policy.

If you choose to cancel after the cooling-off period, your refund will depend on how far you are into the policy. You are entitled to a partial refund after paying the cancellation fee of £45. In addition, if your policy has an outstanding balance or unpaid instalments, your policy booklet will guide you on how much you will receive after the total sum is calculated.

For £0-200, the cancellation charge is £45, but for £200.01 and above, the cancellation fee is 15% of your returned premium. Any payment due from MCE Insurance following the cancellation of your policy, the money is sent to the card used during the original or previous transactions.

Potential Problems That You Might Encounter When Cancelling Your MCE Insurance Policy

MCE Insurance is under new management, making the refund claims take longer than expected. By contacting the agents through email or live chat, you are not guaranteed a specific time frame of when to expect your refunds from the company.

In addition, MCE UK has reported email traffic; therefore, if your request to cancel the policy via email is not seen, the policy can auto-renew.
