Car Insurance Renewal

Options
Well it's that time of the year again.

I've been on the comparison sites and the 2 cheapest quotes for the same cover as my existing policy are from Privilege and More Than.

Is there anything to choose between them? The 2 quotes are virtually the same amounts.

Thank you.

Dolly

    Google the company and add reviews and then decide which looks the better (well least worst I guess). e.g.

    https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.privilege.com

    https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.morethan.com

    tbh hardly any car insurer gets good reviews!

    If there is a better company that doesn't cost much more, consider paying the extra for the better service. Both the ones you say are cheapest have less than half the rating of Admiral group (includes Elephant and Diamond) which probably won't cost much more; not that Admiral are that great either but there are plenty worse.

    Thanks Ed

    It doesn't look good to say the least although I appreciate people are probably more likely to leave a bad review (sounding off) than a good one.

    Just tried Direct Line as we have 2 cars to insure on same date and at the end of the online process they ask you to enter 5 digits of your password - I haven't been asked to create one! I haven't done anything wrong that I can see as exactly the same thing happened with the 2nd car and I was really looking for something I may have missed whilst doing the first quote. Tried all ways to register/create password and lost the will to live. Then I read their Trustpilot reviews:eek:

    Going to try Admiral now - we were insured with them a few years ago - multi car policy.
