I've just received my renewal. Despite owning the same car for 5 years, its garaged, in a good postcode area and not claiming for 14 years my renewal has gone up £100! Do these companies not want to keep our business?? I don't believe insurance companies costs have gone up that much to warrant shafting us all like this ........and breathe
Best do some shopping around then

 

My insurance went up circa £150 and my mrs' insurance went up circa £100!

Few phone calls later both were had (with better policies) for less than the previous years insurance!

If yours is a Uk car try aviva, had a blinding deal on the mrs' car. Although her car is a STD Uk turbo.

 

Insurance is beyond these days, mine's been hold at the grand mark for the last two years!

 

Mine went down this year, you going on capassion site?

 

Can't do comparison sites as I'm modded so need to speak to the insurance co's themselves!!

 

depends how many mods you got guessing by look of your motor its more than 4 or 5 lol

 

How come comparison sites only have room for 4 or 5 mods?

 

hi guys,

had same problem 40yrs old and quoted £750 added my wife who only has a provisional licence and for some unexplained reason it dropped to £535,

asked why it goes down and not up for a high risk driver "because you are less of a risk if your married" shes only had 1 lesson and i swore never again!

might be worth putting your mrs on the policy.

 

Think I've sorted mine sky won't quote my post code moley is driving me insane why tell people to use Keith Michaels and never get back to people Adrian flux have quoted me very well with zero excess again moley if you can't provide the staff to back up your super world beating quotes dont advertise on hear think I've got a few more grey hairs tryin to get a quote off you hate to think what the after sales wud be like

 

I usually do but for some reason I didn't last year Her drivings fine btw, she drives a Scoob too

Dodgy place the Wirral
I've heard Moley is hard to get hold of. I'll try him nevertheless, you never know. Flux came back with a crap quote for my missus on her Scoob, lets hope they're better on mine

 

Tut tut trev dont forget your roots wallasey is changing mate we have electricity now lol

 

Only in the posh part though

 

My premium went up £1

Yes a quid

And by other subaru went down £70

Moley is the top man and I never have a problem in speaking to him
First or second time with out fail for both my cars over the last 8years

Can't understand why people moan and say they can't speak to him

 

There are loads of people complaining about him im sure he is a top bloke I've sent numerous pms left messages etc still no reply in nearly 3 weeks either Keith Michaels need to realise there potentially losing thousands of pounds in lost business and employ more people or set guide lines for performance cars that all staff adhere to not just moley i actually feel sorry for him cos from what i make of it he is only trying to help

 

I'm 23 and have no ncb and I just got my insurance on my 93 wrx down to £1300 , yet I had a uk 1 b4 and it cost me 1800
I really don't get insurance these days is a joke

 

It does sometimes appear to be a case of 'pluck a figure from the air'

 

Can agree with this knocked mine down by 200 also with the wife added

 

To be honest I have found getting hold of Moley very difficult been ringing all day have left pm messeges but nothing as yet, I am going to be patient as I have heard he is the best for insurance on scoob, but I know how you feel about not been able to get hold of him.

 

Sometimes quote take a while to get, especially for high risk postcodes.

Maybe i should stick to the 'easy' quote to free up time, and refuse to help people like you who's quotes need a bit more work?

 

I currently have 107 pm's to check unfortunately

 

I have to say that, whilst you're normally pretty busy, I can normally get through to you after 4 or 5 attempts on the phone mate, you just have to be patient.

And your attitude is always professional, and the quotes you normally give me are very competitive, which is why I've been with KM for the last 5 years!

As for "Loads of people complaining" about you - first I've heard of it!
People in the know stick with an insurer who want to keep their business by offering a decent quote.
Sure, I could go with a comparison website, but I'd never get them to agree to insure all my mods....

I want decent insurance at a competitive price - and that's why I still call Gary when my renewal comes up...

 

Maybe you shud we all can't live in insurance friendly postcodes my apologies for being poor but I've had few amazing quotes a plan rock so far

 

Who said anything about being poor? Thanks for advice though.

If i go to an underwriter who i've referred a quote to and ask them to hurry up with the price, they are hardly going to do me any favours are they?

 

Thanks for the kind words

 

the being poor bit was tongue in cheek, i appreciate what you do for people with excellent results, we just find the lack of communication stressful, my comments are meant to be constructive and never to be taken as me being funny/disrespectful. what i don't get is why only you at the company can give the quotes you give, why cant everyone there do what you do, seriously what you do for people is fantastic.

 

+1

You did have 107 now have 108 to read

Tony

 

No probs mate - remember me when it comes to renewal

 

My little rant...
insured last week on our m98 turbo 2000 wagon. Thought it had standard alarm etc... called insurance today having found out it has a Thatcham cat1 alarm. Yippee!
they wanted to ADD 25quid to my premium.... hmm. Admin charge outweighs the benefit aparently.
not sure about that...
I feel a letter of complaint coming on...

 

I wish mine only went up £100, an extra £450 for the year exactly the same car all mods declared. Is now £450 :-(

 

It was £0 before?
