Car insurance price hike?

Managed to beat my existing insurer down to £295. Result

My quote from DirectLine was cheaper but with a £50 higher voluntary excess so it was a case of 'swings and roundabouts'. Decided to stick with my existing insurer to save all the hassle of having to get proof of my no claims discount.

:T well done Jenny, remember you can tell porkies to your existing company about quotes from others to get them to go lower:rotfl:

The other advantage of DL is that every named driver earns No Claims protection, which may come in handy in the future for the purchase of a second family car.

best to do is do the quotes online take note of the name of insurer and price when u get ur renewal ring up insurance company u are with and tell them u can get insured for the lowest price and they usually match it, thats what we did

cooki2222 all insurance companies are trying to push their premiums up to recover lost profits, they are a lot less into matching premiums this year
