OK so it's time to do the annual slog of renewing the main household car insurance - not strictly disco related but as it's a good deal thought I'd share - mods feel free to bin or move to 'lounge' or whatever if appropriate.
Renewal from current insurer came in at £280 comp with £400 accidental damage excess.
Trawling round the web I could only shave a couple of quid off, so almost resigned myself to staying with incumbent, then came across an offer with quidco and Prudential.
Buy a policy with Pru via Quidco and you get £130 cashback. AND Pru are giving a year's free green flag breakdown cover (with homestart) with new policies (best quote I got elsewhere for this was £54 and it just so happens I need to get some as the car's about to run out of warranty)
... SO... Go through the motions with Pru to get a quote - £293 with same excesses, standard of cover, options etc.
... SO... That's £293 minus the £130 through Quidco minus the £54 saving on breakdown cover = (effectively) £114 for the insurance.
Well happy
Thought I'd share in case anyone else is about to do the trawl.
