AXA Assistance UK and The Co-operative Insurance have marked their 25th year of trading by extending their existing Motor Breakdown and Accident Assistance scheme.
The Co-operative partnership is AXA Assistance’s longest established trading relationship, which has covered a range of insured products, services and schemes for The Co-operative Insurance’s banking and retail customers.
Under this new deal AXA Assistance is providing a range of cover for The Co-operative’s 600,000 motor customers. These include accident assistance, roadside recovery and homestart services across the UK and Europe.
This new agreement will sit alongside a long-standing Home Emergency scheme which AXA Assistance provides to home insurance customers. The Co-operative Insurance was one of the first clients to use AXA Assistance’s own dedicated Home Emergency service which the company launched in 2011.
Paul Moloney, Head of Account Management at AXA Assistance, said: “We are proud of the fact we have supported The Co-operative’s customers for a quarter of a century. Since we first started to provide assistance to their customers who had accidents abroad, we have strived to provide relevant solutions that deliver measurable added-value services. This new deal demonstrates the ongoing success of that strategy.”
Nick Ansley, Motor Insurance Manager at The Co-operative, said: “AXA Assistance shares our commitment to delivering the highest quality of services to meet the needs of our customers. The combination of expertise, service capabilities and care they bring to our partnership has enabled us to continue developing relevant and valuable services over the last 25 years, and now beyond.”
The services and insurance products are underwritten by Inter Partner Assistance, the underwriting arm and a fully owned subsidiary of AXA Assistance.
