Car insurance (cheapest)

To get cheaper insurance I can put myself as in full/part time education. At the moment I am an apprentice is this allowed as putting myself as the profession I am going into makes it almost £100 more expensive but as an apprentice I am still technically in education?

    Unless your apprenticeship involves going to college as well then your not in full/part time education.

    Even if you're going to college part-time, you're still employed.
  • Cheaper insurance deals require scrutinising, do it with a fine toothed comb, because the treatment/service you receive will reflect in their price.
    Cheap doesn't mean it's a bargain.

    One company, that falls into the cheap bracket, are One Call.
    Read the genuine reviews they receive - they say it all.
    Yes. I have first hand experience.

    I hope you never have the need to have a claim with tactics like that.  The words policy cancellation are expensive words.  The companies on the bottom feeding end are also the most likely to cancel policies - insurance companies don't make money by paying out.
