    does not the existing customer relate to motor insurance ?

    I have just got an excellent deal on my home isurance from Zurich via Quidco. The problem is my insurance is due on the 17/03/07 and according to quidco's site "for each fully activated car or home insurance policy throughout February" bit of a problem!

    My question here is could I just cancel my current home insurance policy on say the 20th February and take out the Zurich policy on the same day? Therefore getting my £120 cashback from quidco?

    Any help here would be greatly appreciated as my latest quote from Pearl was £389.24 compared to £52 (less quidco and 14%) with Zurich!
    Just leave it until 28 February, start up a new policy with Zurich and leave your existing one to die a natural death.

    Cheers Glenn for the reply. I used Zurich's "online" help person and she/it said you couldn't do that. Is she wrong in that case?

    Yes you can start a new policy and let the old one expire, ive been with Zurich the last 3 years and always start a new policy and let the old one run out, you can do it a month in advance.

    take a dummy quote and you will see the saving if you tick the box

    Sorry but i cant see this 'existing customer' box.

    I got the quotation on screen 3 - then clicked on Pay Annually and this takes me to Screen 4. I then can see a 'where did you about us' and on this i can see 'existing customer' - but even by selecting that the premium on the following page stays the same..

    any advise
  • Dont forget to leave a few hours between buying your policys and clear your cookies !

    Why? Would it compromise your applications for two individual policys. How do you clear cookies, just took out contents, how long should i wait?
    if i had known then what i know now

    Its changed since i have done it, it just asks if you have a car insurance policy when taking home, and home if taking out a car.
