post office home/car £50 cash back code

janthemum

It was half the price for us so we have just gone with the PO. Working out abot half the price of Ford Insure whom we have been with for 5 years, NO claims! quoted as £360, and will get the £50 back (ie £310) in 28 days. So we are really pleased. Like Ford Insure this includes, RAC breakdown.:j

I have a quote from PO and tried to get a quote using the various commision rufund sites such as quidco etc each time I tried the quote WENT up finally ended up with a quote which was £40 more than my current insurer. The orginal quote I got was £30 cheaper.
The only explanation I can come up with is that the quidco sites place a cookie which the PO recognises and pumps up the price. Despite a phone call to a Mr McKay and the post office they to accept the original quote despite the emailed quote saying it was valid until 05/05/2006!
I went online an tried various excess scenarios but the quotes went up never down, he says that each time you do that then the quote is affected. Well yes I understand that but it appears that the more you try to get a better quote then it does nothing but go up. Beware!!!!

Well been back onto the PO site after cleariung all the cookies from my computer (use no adawre or Norton or soemthing similar) Guess what .....got the original quote back ...this time valid to 15/05/2006.
Just went ahead and bought it this time though.
Moral ...... clear you cookies :T

A tip to avoid an inflated quote - if that's what happens when going via quidco.

Get your quote via confused.com & select the option to buy. This takes you into the post Office quote system. Check your details & click on next until you get to the page where you are supoosed to purchase it. On this screen is a reference number (different to the one issued by confused.com) that relates to the Post Office Quotation System.

Note this number down, exit & log back in via quidco & use the actual Post Office ref number to retrieve your quote.

Hi there

I got a quote thru for Post Office thru confused or insuresupermarket which was really cheap. The quote seems to have expired so I went directly to Post Office for another quote which was more expensive but still cheap (if I get the £50 PO). I just read about Topcashback and have registered but it seems unable to display Post Office page at present.

I wondered whether I could go via Topcashback even though I already have had a quote and if you still get the £50 PO going via a cashback site?

Any ideas? Thanks

The insurance was due up for my wifes car a Peugeot 205 at the beginning of March so via the MSE site I went through Confused. One of the cheapest was the Post Office at £88.53p Third Party fire and theft. I thought that must include the £50 cashback but no when I rang them it didn't. Postal order for £50 arrived yesterday so in effect 12 months insurance for just over £38 a bargain or what!

Well. I registered with Topcashback and went thru to Post Office - retrieved my quote and have just paid. So if I get the £50 postal order plus the £45 from Topcashback - I get fully comp insurance for a year for £131. My renewal from Churchills was £335.

Woohooooo! I love you guys!

Same here, Lloyds tsb wanted £268 for my renewal and if I get the £45 cashback from Quidco + £50 from Post Office it works out at £155, Well Pleased.
