Insure Car Insurance

Got a quote today for Insure care insurance using the comparison websites. Was given a particular quote on the website so called up to confirm all the details and to take out the policy.

Having called them up, they stated that they needed to run a credit check to which i agreed as i was paying monthly. Having been told I have passed the credit check im now being informed that i dont meet their criteria to pay monthly yet they cannot tell me why! All the agent told me is that they just get told i dont meet the criteria from the insurers and this is a special rate so is difficult to pass!

Im fuming, they offer me a quote based on all the correct information that i have given them, pass their credit check and now i cant have the product!!!

Anyone else had the same issue?

    No point fuming.

    If they don't want you they can't be forced!

    There could be a minimum premium they will accept by instalments.

    Are they stopping you buying the cover or just stopping you paying by instalments?
  • Just stopping the payment by installments.

    Any bad marks on your credit file?

    Linked to anyone with poor credit score? Especially to do with insurance?

    I think your left with the choice of pay in full or go elsewhere.
