r1flyguy Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Its that time of year again and to say i'm p*ssed at the state of Insurance policies is an understatement.Considering all the driving experience/courses and qualifications I have, Full NCD, limited usage policy (3000 miles/year), security, access to other car/motorbike, my policy renewal has jumped by nearly £400! FFS, is that how insurance companies treat you these days for NOT claiming and the car being 1 year less in value Had a browse through some of the suggestion on here, but with No tracker fitted I only get so far through some of the repetitive quotation forms.So far quotes range from £470 (without Breakdown & legal cover) up to £1200 !!!Grove & Dean seem to offer the best package with everything thrown in at £537 which is basically what i paid last year.Some of the quotes are just plain silly, offering a price but with no cover of anysort, i.e windscreen, legal, breakdown, Personal AccidentTried policies with and without 'er indoors on and the quotes vary, even with her 1 little bump and couple of years ago without her on the prices are higher, unfortunately she had another little bump recently and decided not to incude her on the policy (by her request )Anyone know a good insurers whom they have used recently ?? Tried Admiral £1264+ Swinton £900+Web Sponsor (but they only do phone quotes and i'm not in the UK at the mo' so doubt they will phone me!)Cheers All Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1flyguy Posted September 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 We're having to pay more and more each year for the consequences of the cheating scumbags who drive around uninsured.It's actually not just them, but those who do claim for personal injuries too, etc... Companies have to reclaim their losses (if there is ever such a thing with Insurance companies)They should quote you on your previous years insurance and non claim rate and those who have claimed for fault issues should have to bear the brunt not us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxxsirrah Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 Aviva were miles cheaper for me than anyone else, but I now have three cars and my house insured with them.With the age of your car your policy cost should be pretty low by now. Something must have happened to the weighting of your postcode to throw it like this. All very odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
