Car Insurance Renewal Quote

micthemini said:I'm trying to make sense of an Aviva quote for a multi car insurance. It has given me two quotes for the same thing, just a slight price difference. Not sure if it's two amounts or what. Suppose I need to call them.
Looking at changing our insurance. It's with LV, due on 2 February. Had the quote for £1100 (up by £130) but then on Saturday hubby had a deer run into his car, caused a bit of damage, called LV, and it's gone for repairs. But they've just sent us an amended quote, it's now £1693 - arghhhh. I really see how they can just add on £500.
The closer you get to your renewal date, you can find that the quotes increase as you are deamed as risky for leaving it to the last minute to insure. Have you read Martin's guide on car insurance? https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/insurance/car-insurance/how-to-get-cheap-car-insurance/

Without giving too much away 🙂 I can’t see how I would have tbh.Northern_Wanderer said:Perhaps you have moved into a category of lower risk....I remained with same insurer for a number of years as they were always cheaper, but one year they were way more expensive than on comparison sites. It depends who they are targeting for their market of people they would prefer to insure.0 -
