Car insurance successes stories

Casey2901

I got mine this year for £201 -£120 Quidco, £81 total.

Co-operative Car Insurance (C.I.S.).

30 days later I did £2500 damage to my car and they were a delight to deal with.


Last year Lloyds TSB paid my Home Insurance for me. £120 cashback for Content and £120 cashback for Building. Making £20 profit for me on my £220 insurance.

My car is an 02 Astra 1.7 DTI

Last September the quote for our Micra was £147 with Prudential car insurance for myself and my wife as a named driver. We got £130 of this back through Quidco just under 3 months later.

£17 for the year!

Also our contents insurance with AIG this year was £85.70 but we got £90 back through Quidco, so it cost us -£4.30!

Slightly off topic here I know but my insurance is due in September. My little car had a fight with a Renault Megane yesterday and lost. As a result of that it will probably be written off (in my opinion). Even though I wasn't to blame, I've got a funny feeling my renewal quote won't be going down this year!

Having last week put the Cheapest Car Insurance System in the weekly e-mail I got an email from someone saying it cut his costs down to £48. So I thought it'd be interesting to see who else seared down their car insurance that way. Did you manage it for under £100?

just got mine for 125 from Swiftcover. 25 quid discount code & 45 quid cashback. Includes legals, fully comp, personal injury and low excess and do not have full no claims.

paid on capital 0% untill october 2009.

tennis ace, be a bit careful here. If you have used a cash back site AND a promo code, you may well find you only get one of those - companies usually pay the lower of the two you use.

Well last year they paid me - Prudential - I got breakdown cover for a year free and I got £100 cashback through quidco on the policy (and of course, always check you are getting the best company first by using a comparison site and then go to your cashback link). So I saved £177 not renewing my AA and got the comp policy for £79.

Today just did OH's - Prudential again gave best cover (and I got £2 for using the compare.com site) got £75 cash back which is quite ok really on his comp policy.
