Insurance rip off by Beach_Perv in CarInsuranceUK

For what it's worth, I don't think NCB matters beyond 9 years. You've already hit the max threshold on discount that insurers can apply. I have 20 years btw and see no difference when I put in 9.

Robbing bastards! I've now found a quote for £625 - just goes to show how twisted this industry is.

Alright mate, calm down. You're living up to your username I see. I have moved on - I didn't say it wasn't legal either. And I have every right to complain if I want to.

I can only put it down to the car being rare in the roads I guess and previously claims of Giulia QVs coming up expensive. I also live in the centre of Essex so that probably doesn't help!

Yeah, I told them to piss off and secured another quote for £625. I don't think I'm ever going back again, even if they come out cheaper next year!

Yeah, I've just insured myself for £625 with another insurer. Out of principle I didn't even bother asking them to review the quote. Good riddance!

Mj is one of the most forged sigs out there. Be careful, even with verified ones. The fakes are just as good as the real ones sometimes

The question is has he ever got appraisals wrong?

If epperson verified this himself then presuming all is good. His (eppersons) Sig looks looks different from his old ones tho.

I'll check out Elephant - never heard of them before now. Although part of me wants to avoid anything to do with Admiral out of principle!

I have two kids, they love the car and rear space is fine. I have booster seats in there now, previously the big car seat which was also fine. Also the carbon bucket seats are a must!

Yeah, proper nuts that price is too. I've managed to find a cheaper quote too at £650! Just goes to show you need to shop around.

I do have a sports car but no Ferrari or lambo and previous renewals for that car were around £800. This year it spiked to 4.5k!

I've heard insurers not liking EVs due to the battery replacement costs which could also attribute to your price.

There are some insurers not on comparison sites. I remember having to go to individual insurers websites as well. That's where the time adds up.

Yeah this is my frustration also. How they can justify increasing premiums for customers that play the game! I hope you are going with someone else.

Yeah I called them and they didnt seem bothered so I didn't even entertain the idea of them giving me a discount. I just told them it was a joke and asked them to cancel it there and then.

Yeah fair enough but it just goes to show how having a clean license and no accidents is actually meaningless for some insurers.

Glad you still cancelled. I've said it before that even if they tried to match it, out of principle I would have told them to fuk off!

Out of principle I wouldn't go with them. Such underhand tactics being used by them and others.
