Insurance
#1
Last year my insurance was £134 fully comp, inc legal protection, personal accident, helmet and leathers and pillion. This was with Hastings direct. Renewal came through last week and was £158.10. I went online to the meerkat peeps and they came up with £136 for the same cover (also with Hastings direct).
  Sooooo, on the phone to Hastings today wanting to know why my renewal was dearer, expecting to hear all the bull shit about new customer deals etc, when the bloke says he can do it now for £123.77!!!!! (also £50 cheaper excess than the renewal quote)


Apparently `the price of insurance changes day by day and today must be one of the good days sir`(yeah right)!!!


Ive just saved £35, plus a possible £50 excess, for exactly the same cover with the same company just for the sake of a 5 min phone call.


Part of me was saying `shove it where the sun dont shine` for trying to rip me off in the first place but all insurance companies are the same, and I wasnt gonna bite my nose off to spite my face.


  RESULT!!  Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin

Always worth checking with the meerkats. Only problem is what to do with all those toys!

Home, car, bike, cat, other cat = 4 each year!

Actually, I need to email them to let them know it's OK to have more years no claims bonus than years on my licence since some of my no claims was built up on my CBT.
