Car Insurance question

It's that time of year where I have to renew once again.

However, I anticipate that I will have a new car within the next 12 months.

Should I pay monthly (plus the high interest charges) or am I safe to pay annually and claim back, if needed?

Thanks :)

  • I change car regularly.

    Usually my current insurer is the cheapest avaliable for the new car.

    Just call them up and swap cars on the policy.

    a few times ive had a refund because the new car is a lower risk than the previous.

    All paying monthly means is that you spread the cost over x months, likely with a fee.

    If you make alterations to the policy then the same adjustment calculations will be made irrespective of your payment terms.
