S&G aren't the most stable financially these days so you may want to do some due dliligence, I don't know when Afnug used their services.

Cycling UK, solely because i qualify for half price membership. The politics, the nasty sniping on their forum, and the ad rag dressed as a members magazine aren't worth paying full price for.

Agree with that Have not renewed my C U K membership.Nothing of interest in the magazine. Joined BC at least you get a weekly newsletter.

CUK seems to be £10m third party - couldn't see anything about £1m for family but may have missed it
Says you don't have to pay legal fees so unless diliberately misleading is not no win no fee
Halfords discount seems to have changed to require code and membership card and does not cover sale items. I think almost certainly Halfords decide on the terms and apply to both BC and CUK in the same way so benefit is the same.
I cycle with CUK local group so have that membership.

I only had a quick glance at the liability perhaps I misread then perhaps it is 10 million.

I don't really read the BC newsletter and haven't got time to go on any more forums.. so would be solely for the insurance and legal help and having looked at actual insurance cover through a broker I reckon one of the two organisations would be the best way to go.
Thanks for your input @Drago I must admit I've missed your down to earth advice and interesting opinions. I must try to post more and not disappear again...

CUK also offer 15% off Cotswold Outdoor. Although if you can afford to shop there even with 15% discount you have more money than me - they always seem expensive.
I can confirm Slater and Gordon don't take a cut. Very good company to deal with also.

From the info provided i reckon I'll switch r to get itty bitty payments instead of a big lump and to get cover for everyone in house rather than just me

I asked the same questions a few months ago, cannot find the thread now, but somebody did offer another company but no-one seemed to have any experience of them, but it was purely a 3rd Party liability type policy along with legal cover, I'll keep looking for the thread.
@vickster Can you remember it, pretty sure you also commented on it?

Different experience to me . They were utter useless except at victim blaming which they are very good at
Same can be said for any company or organisation. Everyone has a story.

I agree on that. The guy I dealt with was not cycle friendly at all. Which is odd for a cycle claim ...
