Title: car insurance renewal Post by: blinkpip on Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 19:03:39 My car insurance renewal is never cheaper than what I find around.
It's up at the end of the month and my insurance company Churchill won't match it. For the last 4 years, I changed my insurance each time. Has anyone been offered a better deal than what they find online? Title: car insurance renewal Post by: Bushey Boy on Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 19:17:59 try swiftcover.com cut mine by £400
Title: car insurance renewal Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 19:36:04 Why not phone up your existing insurer and say you are leaving. They will probably ask why and also match the offer then. Worked for a few people I know
Unless you're a shit driver Title: car insurance renewal Post by: Dazzza on Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 19:37:28 moneysupermarket are a pretty decent place to start and then contact the cheaper quotes directly to see if they'll slash a bit more off.

I'm going to <insert name of compnay here> instead" If they don't ask how much that policy is they are foolish I did. They lowered their original price. But was still higher than some quotes I found. It's the same every year, I threaten to leave and they hardly lower the price. Also I found that getting a website to find quotes for you is worse than searching yourself. Title: car insurance renewal Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 20:38:50 That's the point I was making. You shouldn't threaten you should just do it. If they don't lower their price further you haven't lost anything except a bit of your time
Title: car insurance renewal Post by: Arnold.J.Rimmer on Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 20:56:47 I've only been driving 3 years and my most recent quote for renewal from Norwich Union actually increased. My circumstances hadn't changed other than the fact I've got an extra year of no-claims and experience. :? not sure what i did to upset them so took my business elsewhere
Title: car insurance renewal Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 20:59:41 I've just insured my new motor with Admiral. By far the cheapest out there for young drivers.
Saying that though, it's still £67 a month fully comp. That's what you get for driving a 2.0 HDI DTurbo at 20 with previous claims. Title: car insurance renewal Post by: ronnie21 on Wednesday, April 11, 2007, 21:22:30 I trawled several internet sites, finally found Confused.com They offered me several different quotes from various companies, ended up with Churchill, which were £50 cheaper than Norwich Union who I had been with for the past two years. Probably have stayed with them but when I rung them up to pay my premium I was connected to a call centre in India, fucked if I was going to give some little dark creature my credit card details! :-))(
PS Will Jeffrey now start another racial topic with his cronies?

Title: car insurance renewal Post by: mattboyslim on Thursday, April 12, 2007, 10:16:04 I used thisismoney which gave me soem good quotes - tesco being up there, then I went to Zurich/eagle star who pride themselves on not using the net because it gives better customer service - and proceeded to sent me to an indian call centre - who cocked things up - still cheap for where I live and my car being on the road.
