peace-babies

its a good tool it doesnt have my job, but then only the people on my team have the title so i never expect much, useful to see that i can save 5 pounds if i call myself a telecomunications advisor instead of customer assistant technically its my job and id never have thought of changing the title to change the cost.

I'm coming back as an Aircraft Maintenance Engineer to save £14.20!

I was looking under hotel management as I remember years ago substituting that for administrator and it coming up a good deal cheaper. There was nothing listed for Hotels other than Hotel Consultant and thats where the above occupation came in the cheapest.

I can't enter "Legal Secretary" as my current job description, so just chose "secretary". I then chose legal/security sector and one of the options it came up with was ... Legal secretary...

I'm a Loss Adjuster- only option was Loss Assessor. Happily a Claims Adjustor knocks £50 a year off though, which is nice.

Thanks, good tool- I am a scientist in the nuclear field, but I normally just say Scientist when asked for insurance purposes. According to your tool, a nuclear scientist seems to be a safe bet- I would save myself £23. No other relevant job title (even Civil Servant which would be another option) is as cheap.
I found the following text confusing "Picking Scientist instead of Nuclear Scientist, for car insurance costing £400.00, may save you £23.20 just by changing your job title."
The lower priced job title should be listed first in that sentence...

Is it really true?!

As an occupational therapist I pay more than if I called myself a council worker or civil servant. It is amazing how a play on words makes a difference. Think I need to become a museum attendant to save £60! Great tool, I've enjoyed playing around with it.

I swapped from being a housewife to a house parent and it gives a small saving of £6.70 but if i change it to house person i save £12!!! Would never think of doing this as i always put my occupation as housewife and have never thought of any other titles to describe myself, thanks Martin makes me think out of the box now, great!!!:D

Just checked my partner's he is a mechanical design engineer, a design engineer pays £14 more than a mechanical engineer, hmmm!

Just wondering if the insurance companies ever check people's occupations if there is a claim? Will they not pay out if I call myself a project manager rather than a health care worker?
