Car insurance

[Tom]

Right.

My car insurance is due to finish on the 22 of this month and im not sure what to do.

I am currently paying about £1300 a year TPFT and i have found a company who will insure me for about £466 TPFT


This is where i get stuck. Do i

A. Start a new policy now and cancel the original one when i have all the documents

or is there a way of sorting this out???

As this is the first time i have done this im not to sure what to do.

Any help would be grand :)

Many thanks

If you have renewal documents from your current insurere they will show a no claims discount and you simply renew with your new insurer to continue when your current policy expires and send them your renewal forms to prove your no claims (assuming you have one)

Go to the new insurer and tell them the details of your old insurer, policy number etc and they will sort it out for you and transfer everything over on the applicable date.

Look on quidco.com - I just shaved £130 off my renewal by buying Prudential through quidco.

There are quite a few insurers on there just now with various cashbacks in the range £50 - £100+

cheers all. somthing to think about (well quickly anyway)

What annoys me is that every year, the company I'm with will increase my quote, rather than decrease it :mad:

They are possibly doing it in the hope that I just leave it and the direct debits will continue (fat chance), but I managed to knock a good £100 off this year, down to £308.

Is that for business use too?

Have you had a look at the price comparison sights like http://www.confused.com/ I saved a few quid by going there.

Just changed from Tesco to More Than, saving £180. Now £40 a month, with 5 years no claims bonus. Hopefully will go down even more when i hit 25 :D
