Insurance Renewal

Using the majority of comparison websites, cheapest quote so far is Hastings Direct £210 annually-comp excess £95.

Aviva is quoting £259 with 15 weeks free insurance, i have saved more than £100 as with my existing insurer Direct Line quoted £386.

Does anyone have any good feedback about Hastings Direct, or is it safer to go with Aiviva being a more recognised company.

Thanks,

Garcon6

    Hastings are just an intermediary. Find out who the actual underwriter of the policy would be. Hastings don't have the best reputation for service. You would probably be better off with Aviva.
    The comments I post are personal opinion. Always refer to official information sources before relying on internet forums. If you have a problem with any organisation, enter into their official complaints process at the earliest opportunity, as sometimes complaints have to be started within a certain time frame.

    Gone for Aviva via Topcashback website £260 15 weeks free insurance and £80 cashback. If i do get the cashback then it would be £170, originally i was quoted £384 for renewal with Direct Line, so far i have saved £124.
