car insurance

scaniarob

Hello,

Quick one

Have had a company vehicle for years about 14 , not getting a new one when the lease expires instead going to get my own.

Now i have had no accidents or claims in this time but when i have started looking at insurance no one seems to to recoqnise the fact i,m not a new driver and will not offer me any discounts , is there any companys who will take your driving expierence into account with proof from my employers claims history

the quotes i have had are a joke so far , even though i have a sports car and quad insured under my name for 3 years each , i cannot use any of them either

Thanks

Find out who the Company car insurance was with and approach them for a quote asking them to take your no claims on the company car into consideration.

A few companies will give you maximun no claims if you can back it up with a letter from your employer, try getting an online quote with full no claims and then give them a ring.

Have you just had online quotes or by phone? I'd suggest calling round insurers and explaining the situation. I think some accept a letter from your employer stating you effectively have 14 years NCB. Its not an unheard of situation to be in and I think there are ways and means...

Give you an idea of cost if you out in full no claims though.

I know on moneysupermarket if you click on the individual quotes it'll give you a number to ring to speak to the individual insurer.

Just found this: http://www.budgetinsurance.com/car-insurance/Frequently-asked-questions/Can-I-use-a-NCD-proof-from-a-company-car/

But I would steer clear of budget as its a brand of BISL who are a joke insurer tbh.

A lot of companies say they will take your no claims years into account and then unless you are a named driver on the company policy, do not accept it. I had the same problem, in the end I was given 1 years NCB as a new customer.

If the worst comes to the worst, (shouldn't), you should easily get the 3 years on the sports car mirrored.
