If you don't like the premium somebody charges you then shop around.
Dozens of insurance companies out there who will offer you a premium. None of them forcing you to buy.0 -
Everyone's insurance has 'gone up' - females are seeing his following te outlawing of preferential weighting (that IS illegal). Your no fault incident ay ave had no bearing on this whatsoever as many find their premiums increase with no claims whatsoever.
Further, you don't sy if your NCD was affected, if it was reduced whilst tere was acfull settlement by the third party, that would be wrong. Is it?0 -
Statistically, those that have a claim on a policy are more likely have another in a shorter timescale than someone with no claim. Also, whilst it may have been the fault of another on paper, it could also show a lack of awareness of the road ahead and what is happening around you. Insurance is priced on statistics. The greater the risk, the greater the premium.
it is no different to living in a riskier postcode. The premium is higher as the risk is greater.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA).
