SAGA Essential

The money supermarket site pointed me towards a fully comprehensive policy for my Mini for, wait for it, £30.84 annually! Even better this price will apply for three years unless my circumstances change. Obviously I took up the offer any my policy is in place. I thought £30.84 would have been a reasonable monthly payment for a blue chip insurer.

    I suspect that's a pricing error, which when they notice, you may not find the honour (especially for 3 years!!)

    But they seem to have accepted his money, forming the contract, and the insurance is in place according to OP.  Well done, I say!

    Need to read the T&Cs of the contract though... it is fairly probable that this year's premiums are fixed, the following years premiums may well have a clause about mis-pricing which doesnt bind them if there was an error

     The post heading states Saga Essential, that one does not have a 3 year price guarantee. I have just changed to Saga essential at £204, when speaking to them they did a quote for the 3 year version which came out at £254!
