8 Months of no claims down the pan CHEERS FLUX
Had a bad deal with Adrian Flux because I have changed my car ive lost 8 month no claims (TOSSERS) No mention of it being a special 4 wheel drive insurance when they took my money.
they wanted £1500 of me for a 1.1 fiat punto lol i was insured with them for a Subaru forester sf5 turbo for £510 lolol cant get me head around them robbing *******. had my licence 5 years clean and age 47 going on 27
Rung them back the same day for a quote for a m8s daughter same car same reg, age 19 had her licence 9 months no no claims, £1200 quid.

i laughed at them when they quoted me 3.5k for a turbo 2000 so i sold it and went jdm hawk with A-plan for a lot lot cheaper.
i take it that this 4x4 policy thingy was mentioned in the paper work? if not then i would be back on the phone

alot of insurance companies are a joke right now .
tried swift cover earlier today I am 26 with 6 years ncd and it stated i was too young, so i tried to do a quote for my dad who is over 45 and it stated it would not qoute him either saying he is to young
got in contact and they said they no longer insure impreza turbo 2000s
I was getting good quotes from aviva but then all of a sudden they wont qoute me online anymore tried my wife ect and it still quotes they wont even quote me on a ford ka i must be black listed for doing to many online qoutes?
now ive found swinton and a company swinton have joined with low and behold aviva and they called it insurance line and they have quoted me sensible prices so so far im getting good quotes from
aviva (but now they wont quote me)
swinton
and insurance line ran by swinton and aviva
tried all the rest and they are outragous
when I have sold my current car I am hoping to ring keith micheals , a-plan , sky , greenlight
I am hoping keith micheals will come back and beat all of them but wont ring up till ive sold my car as dont want to waste anyones time.

oh and a side note I totally agree flux sucks was with them once about 4-5 years ago cancelled a policy and they still took the renewal out of my account and they told me I had to pay a cancallation fee on that to get it back of 25% even tho my origonal policy had been cancelled never again

was told by someone very high in motor insurance.....EVERYONE READ
all insurance companys will give you a very good quote if your a new customer
NEVER EVER stay with them after the first year......it will always go high on renewal as most people dont or cant be bothered to change to another company
i have had full licence 20 yrs and im on number my 17th insurance company i changed when i was told the above....and always had very good quotes
one year the AA was the best...next year they was the 3rd worst.....they year later was 2 nd cheapest
another way to bring down the cost is to put wife/gf etc on poilcy it is cheaper than just yourself

lol,, i got a horrific renewal from swinton on my van policy which was about £340 dearer with no change to my circumstances ect, i rang them to be offered cash back/free breakdown(already got)/free this and free that ect, in the end they matched last years premium with half an hour of badgering, dont they make you laugh
#14
sorry but im not incorrect......every year i have changed the compnay i have my insurance with and its always Much less than the renewal
i put my wife on the policy and it was £70 per year less than to insure just myself and she only had 1 been driving 1 year

I change my house insurance every year or get my insurer to match the other price quoted
Subaru insurance is harder for my Subaru as not many will touch it
Gary is your man I've been insured with him for 5 years and has been around the £300 every year no increases
Nobody can touch gary on prices for me
Maybe I have a high post count ,good risk and I get through on the phone every time without fuss

I phoned up today too - see how much it would be to upgrade from my current 2.0 sport hawkeye (currently paying £700) to an RB320 .... Came back saying only 1 insurer would touch me looking at 8k I thought ermmmm maybe not then ... however comparethemeerkat.com and admiral turned back quoting me £1374.
Just shows really.

87% of my customers renew with me, and i know most look around, so don't tar all companies with the same brush.

my last insurance was with adrian flux and i have got to say they are a bunch of jokers
give keith micheals or aplan a call they are much better.
also the trouble i had getting my ncb from flux was a nightmare and when i got it
other insurance companys would not accept it but i sorted it out in the end.lol

Sorry to buck the trend but I can't fault flux. Been with them for years. At renewal I always ring around and they beat anyone else that's quoted. I'm paying under 400 a year

Agreed!
I have been with KM for 4 years, my quotes haven't gone up (other than due to an accident) as they look around for the best policy/deal each time and haven't let me down. Even shopping around at renewal time just to check they where considerably cheaper with better cover.

I used to be with flux with the gtir and one year it doubled no change to driver reccord or the car infact i had another years ncb . I went with a plan after no pros since even when swapped from gtir to scoob mid policy no probs . At end of policy I tried km for a quote but they never got back to me so I have kept with aplan for another year as gave me compettative quote.

Every other company I have dealt with has done the opposite, every time without fail.

Guys try Keith Micheals but you need to talk to Gary Moley always beaten any other quotes I've had and this year didn't even waste my time ringing round.
Gary quoted me £550 , last year it was £520 !
Aviva wanted £873
Asda wanted £1200

Adrian Flux are pointless, they market themselves as being very competitive when it comes to insuring performance cars. Just like the comment above I'm beginning to see more and more negative reviews about them, then again I don't think they were on par with some other insurance companies from the start.
For reference I recently went with Gary at KM for the first time who gave me a top dollar price.
