Its insurance time again

[StevenRB45]

My renewal is up next month tesco my current company are offering 657 on my 85 elx, This is with a 250 quid young driver excess cos im 22, and no claims discount protection (without it it would be about 540) I have 5 years no claims, But two accidents on record first was my fault but cost my insurance company zip second i was hit by someone else. Also have a caution for speeding, but don't dont think that counts, Is that a decent price? i was expecting it be a bit less this year.

Well Just tried directline who offered £579 with all the boxes ticked, So £0 voluntary excess (although that bloody £250 young driver one still applies) NCB protection, Legal cover and a guaranteed hire car, also i forgot to mention last night im shopping for fully comp not 3rd party.

 

[Focus Owner]

well you can get it for 520 ish i think witht he fiat insurence

 

[StevenRB45]

Directline is looking like the best deal I can get there are some cheaper but they miss out on things like courtesy cars, and legal protection or NCB protection, Also directline has a zero excess on vandalism and uninsured driver claims and as parking at my girlfriends house is like parking in a warzone (it's been damaged twice this year already) that really appeals, anyone know what the fiat forum excesses are without me having to phone up?

When I spoke to Chris Knott, I was told to confirm the competitor quotes excesses before they will price match (however, I've heard that the price match and 10% off only applies if you are 25+)

Directline it is then.

no thats not true, they try for everyone, just might not be able to do it for high risk drivers, but always try

My girlfriend just turned 20, wrote off a C2 and had 2 other crashes in her Polo, only been driving for 2 years... just under £700.

Would recommend Direct Line, and highly recommend Norwich Union Direct!

 

[StevenRB45]

Hmm in that case i'll prolly give them a phone, its not expired till 4th feb so just shopping ATM. Also at Danny B the joys of being female apparently! 5years of driving, 5 years NCB, and no write offs or accidents that cost an insurance money and im still paying near 600 quid on a 1.2!...albeit one in group 7

Doesn't the excess vary by quote?

NUD ARE CRAP WHEN IT COMES TO CLAIM TIME, AND CAT A CARS WITH JUST A LITTLE PANNEL DENT

fact is you really cant recommend an insurer until your in a claim situation.
otherwise your recommending them for taking money
