Dimple Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Has car insurance gone up recently or something? Im due for renewal and to say im surprised at the quotes is an understatement The lowest quote is almost double last year and nothing has changed apart from ive earned an extra years NCD Anyone else having this problem?

barleycorn Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Depends, how much was last years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Mine was up significantly, until I shopped around and then phoned the original one. I've seen reports about large increases in the press, so yes, I think it's generally up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimple Posted August 24, 2017 Author Share Posted August 24, 2017 Depends, how much was last years? Last year, £78 This years cheapest quote so far £143 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Hardie Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 (edited) Last year, £78 This years cheapest quote so far £143 I presume that is for a month's cover. It shouldn't have gone up by that much. Are you sure it's for the same cover as last year? Edited August 24, 2017 by Jim Hardie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive never renewed with the same company two years running as Ive always found renewing more than going with someone else. This years shopping around caused me a surprise so Ill be shopping around some more then seeing what my current insurer offers by way of a renewal quote. Then Ill just have to see If they can reduce it. I hate the fact they have us by the proverbial then just jack up the prices as and when they choose. Ah well, that the price of car ownership I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny_Boy Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 That's very cheap. What are you insuring? Unless they mean monthly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie_shef Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Are you sure it's for the same cover as last year? This - is there a different tick box or cover option that you've selected this year that you didn't select last year? e.g. 3rd party vs. fully comp. Using car for work etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
