anyone do 0% interest on car insurance premiums?

Hi. Don't have a credit card and need to renew car insurance this weekend.
Been going thru confused and quidco, but does anyone know which companies don't charge anything for paying monthly?

Thanks!

    Just compare the monthly prices. A company charging interest could be cheaper than a zero interest one. It's the bottom line that matters.

    Virgin don't charge, but when I used them they were reselling direct line.

    Going direct to direct line was cheaper, even with the interest.

    I am looking for Car Insurance at the moment and I am sure that Direct Line did offer 0% interest. It is worth a look.

    As dh says, just look at the bottom line. 0% does not mean its cheapest. same goes for cashback deals.
