Oh Nationwide says I save £65.39 if I use there CC to get my bike insurance instead of my 22% CC..... hmmmm interesting!“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence.

Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent".0

My logic might seem a bit odd - but I have to pay £175 to the ex / £80 to the overdraft in Novermber..... So if I didn't pay them I could pay the bike insurance straight up and knock everything back a month but I don't want to abuse my ex's good nature or my bank ( who are very helpful ) at all...
So a 0% interest for 6 months with Nationwide looks like the most obvious choice - although you can't have 0% balance transfer AS WELL Where as with the Northern you can....

OOoh I have checked and my current provider ( the cheapest by far ) is on Quidco.. I need to read more about this and see if I can use it on a renewal.. It runs out the 8th November so the actual insurers are calling tomorrow with a quote .... £570 is a guess-timate via an on-line comparison site so if they are more I would be very disappointed but I intend to challenge them ...
Thanks happy...“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

Ha ha, I just put the kettle on too with the intention of working this out
Coffee break anyone?
Quidco's great at insurance renewal time. If you have time to check out lots of options (which as a MSE'r you are, naturally :money:)
There's also a confused.com app which is great if you have a smart phone. Tracks your mileage and gives you £25 once you've driven 250 milesI'll try and find the link...

Challenge hard! You have nothing to lose and every penny you save can go towards those pesky debts0 -
ooh whats the confused app ? that gives you 25 quid for 250 miles /?? lol if its with a different insurer then you can have cashback but if renewing with same company no, but you can be armed with the cashback and say im a loyal customer bla bla

Are you serious on cash back? I do 250 miles a week??? I'm heading home now but good grief I'm checking this out!!! Thank you.. Compare sites quote my current supplier as the lowest so far..“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

If you search for an app called confused.com motor mate, you should find it. I think the details are here http://www.confused.com/car-insurance/motormate
I already got the free cradle and charger and I'm on my way towards the 250 mile £25 freebie :j:j I notice they also give you £25 for renewing your insurance through them. I didn't pay much attention to that part though as my insurance isn't due for ages.
I have to say, I love this appThe thought of free money makes me excited to use it every time I get in the car (sad, but very true
)
