Always challenge insurance
« on: 06 April 2023, 03:34:21 pm »
Received my renewal quote recently, a 50% plus increase in the premium  :eek . After some discussion, we arrived at an agreed premium increase of less than 5% for the same cover.

My renewal came through a week or two back. Something like a 25% discount on last year.

Strangely enough, for the last few years my renewal quotes have been on par with the cheapest prices on a comparison site, so I've stayed with them.

My insurance a couple of years ago only went up by £10 so I went with it as wasn't interested in spending time getting cheaper quotes ringing them up spending an hour in a que all for £10. But the next year it went up by £12 so I let that go but this year this frog has woken up and will no longer be slowly boiled. So I will search for a better quote.
With my current insurance my bike is under a future classic vintage cover  :eek
