Car insurance - main driver etc.
Wife and I have always had two cars with an insurance policy in each of our names (with the other person being named driver). However, its now the case that I drive the car insured in her name more than I do the other one (and vice versa), so I was thinking of swapping them around. Trouble is one policy A is coming to an…

Hi all, I was hoping someone can help/point me in the right direction. We're currently advertising my son's car, but his policy is due to expire soon. If we don't manage to sell the car before the policy expires, we're obviously going to have a renew, but we don't want to pay for an entire year and get charged for early…

I was looking for a quote and the insurance provider asked for the NCB not to be older than…

Aviva Car Insurance - New Customer Definition?
Hi, I was just wondering whether anyone knew what Aviva car insurance would define a "new customer" as?

For example; I'm currently a customer with them, if I do not renew my policy…

Fee based life insurance
I can't believe that a money saving website is advocating fee only based life insurance. What happens if you change your mind? What happens if the case is rated? What happens about reviews? Do you get your money back if the case does not proceed? Let the "conduit" take some commission - the price will sort out the market…

good question
That's a really good question. When I was at a race several years ago, I saw a girl who I was pretty sure was a webgirl I'd spoken with online and I had been a member of her site. Her site was already offline so there was no way I could ask after the race if that was her. A fellow webgirl who was on the same site said she…
