It's that time of year again insurance

[Chrispy]

Just this morning had the renewal for the van, £284.75 :shock: so thought better do the search thing although last year it made no difference well this year £122.59 with lower excess and protected NCD as well, so give my old insurer a call to see what happening, : :wink: roll: no don't want to know, that is the best we can do, :roll: so sort out the new cover, very pleased (hammer) ---------------- the only problem now is so far in four hours I have been called nine times by various companies wanting to better any on line quote (which I can't believe they can) how on earth can I stop them? I seem to remember this going on for weeks last year. :evil: :evil:
Merry Christmas. :ho2

Dont answer the phone?

I'd love to be paying 284 or less for insurance.

Never mind, nearly Xmas :ho2

Who was the low quote from?

Who was the low quote from?

Hastings direct, but there was quite a few in the same ball park.

Wish I could let it ring but it may just be a customer!

Yup, I'm with Hastings Direct as well. Good premium and when it came to crunch time they handled things very well.

Not quite following but if that's yearly rate for car insurance you're talking about, it doesn't sound bad. I pay 298 euros a year for our insurance (traffic + for our own car too) and that's a good price by our standards.

Hmmmm I was with Hastings a few years ago until they hiked me up, maybe time for another look.

 

[RogerS]

They are open to negotiation. When I last came to renew, M&S had a 'We'll beat your current quote by £50' deal on. Cut a long story short, I got Hastings down to within £20 of the M&S discounted price and so decided to stay with them.

We have two cars and when the renewal notice for number one ( 2 litre turbo diesel Ford) came in last month it was £103 and about £10 lower than last year. I did not bother to shop around.
The renewal for number two came today (1.8 litre petrol Peugeot) asking for £93.49 again about £10 cheaper than last year.
Both are fully comp, two named drivers with no claims protection.
Such a pleasant surprise for bills to go down these days!

Been with Hastings a few years now and never pay the renewal price, go in with the cheapest quote from a competitor and they normally match it or come very close.
