Renewal Prices!!!

A1ex · Post by **A1ex** » Fri Apr 05, 2013 7:56 pm

All I can think is that insurance companies don't car about existing customers and just want new ones

My past insurance has been;

0-1 yrs Admiral
1-2 yrs Admiral
2-3 yrs Direct line
3-4 yrs Bell (owned by admiral)
4-5 yrs AXA
5-6 yrs Swift cover (owend by AXA)
6 yrs to current Adminal

Other than the first renewal I had, they've always had excessive renewal quotes circa +30% increases

I was amazed how cheap Swift were, the year I went with them they were a clear £200 cheaper than anything else I could find

it's a quick form so could be worth a punt...

I'll take a goosey gander in a bit

Cheers.

Are you still 3rd party then?

Nope.

Fully comp with mods declared now

If you go with Admiral, Bell or Elephant (all same company and also own confused.com) watch the increase for month payments. Usually goes up about 40%. I was quoted £469 in 1 payment, or £61 a month circa £720 per yr. Still a good price with mods declared but worth watching

Yeah that's what I was looking at... if I pay monthly it goes to just under a grand. Bastards. I can't remember the last time I had a positive bank balance, let alone enough to buy insurance in one go

My insurance has just gone up by £100 on account of the missus's accident in the JDM last year

Looked at taking her off and it still went up! (by £40).

Basically, a woman that hasn't had a crash saves you money*, a woman that's had one, costs you!

*insurance only!
