Just a little heads up for anyone renewing car insurance.
SWMBO runs a Peugot 206 S and does about 5K miles a year mainly down to our local village rail station and Sainsbury's on Saturdays,my daughter is on the policy but is 25 in September.SWMBO has 10 years protected no claims and last speeding ticket was almost 5 years ago so one would have thought a good risk.
She's just had her renewal from the AA and it had gone up from about £800 to £1516.89 with Zurich plus interest at 26.9% APR to pay it monthly so a total of £1731 !!!
So I ring my corporate broker and on exactly the same terms get the same policy from Aviva for £594 i.e. over 60% less !!!
I love the quote on the covering letter:
"Car insurance prices have been rising recently so you may be pleased to know that the AA Deal Checker has automatically compared quotes from our panel of leading insurers to get you a great price " yeah great for them on 10% commision,"pleased","great price" do they think we are all stupid !!! MY2011 HSE Santorini/Ivory/Piano Black/Privacy Glass/TV .Sadly gone.
Audi A5 Sportback Black Edition 3.0 tdi quattro S Line

Even the new price seems high, but yes I get your point, what a bunch of tossers!! Makes me really angry...they use the current climate as an excuse to make more money.....

every year my insurance company takes the and every year I shop about and get a far better price which the insurance company i'm already with beats to keep my business.

It is like some sort of game with them, i'm sure they just try it on and hope some customers just pay up instead of shopping around 2017 Range Rover Sport Autobiography

I renewed last week and got it for less than £500 in my HST

One good thing about living in the sticks

Robbers arent they? I dont think Ive stayed more than 1 year with either car or house insurers for the last 4-5 years. Bloody stupid situation. FF 4.4 V8 Soooo looking forward to this bad boy
Ex 2006 RRS SC - garbage
Ex 2016 135i M Sport - dream car
Ex 2003 RS6 Avant - piece of cr*p
Ex 2014 320d X Drive, M Sport Touring - ok I guess
Ex 2007 RRS TDV8 - bloody loved it
EX 2007 FL2 XS - not so bad

My renewal was over £800 but went on one of those compare sites. Rang up Admiral and said I had a quote for £470 off Elephant and could they beat it..........

Mr Jones, that is our sister company, of course we will match it............

Why didn't you quote me properly in the first place then, save me 20 minutes of my life

Move to Scotland!! South Scotland is apparently a good risk, wife's mini is less than £200 fully comp!! MY10 TDV6 SE (debadged ), Santorini Black, Flappy paddles, Privacy Glass, 20" Stormers, Mudflaps!

Gone: a comprehensive list of imprezas and a Merc ML AMG

Dog insurance recently is worse...problem is they are all about the same so its just a 70% rise Mike
