Hey,

Just wondered if any of you had come across any fantastic insurance offers atm.

My insurance brokers has been taken over and are now trying to quote me almost double my premium for last year.

I've tried all the usual suspects, e.g. comparison sites, tesco, norwhich union, direct line etc etc. Cheapest atm is Admiral/Elephant who have matched (£550) what i paid last year allbeit with a bigger excess. Everyone else is miles off Norwhich Union wanted £1600 hahaha!

Anyone hot tips would be much appreicated because as usual i've left it late so only got until tomo to sort it out.

Don't know your circumstances but Privilege are always cheapest for our insurance.

dont forget things like quisco

tattoed_bum

have you tried lv insurance both me and dh had our insurances from there for £200 fully comp we also went through quidco and had £40 back each .
i dont know why but if you have another named driver on your policy this seems to make it cheaper this has worked for us the last 2 years .
you could also try tweeking your job title a little to see if that makes a difference

Better than most but still £800 and something which is obv more than elephant.

Grrr this annoying i was hoping my insurance would go down this year but its proving a struggle just to keep it in the same ball park.
