Offline | MCS Insurance Renewal time. Shop around. I thought I would just share my find a cheaper quote experience. My renewal arrived in the post yesterday, which came in at £551.21 but my broker (A-Plan) had already done some research and come up with a cheaper quote at £499.95 Being a friday and only got a couple of days before I change jobs I thought I would try and get a better quote. What I wanted was reasonable Excess, Protected No Claims, and Legal Cover, anything else would be gravy. 1st I thought lets try some online quotes: Directline: £422.10 AA: £494.01 RAC: £438.99 Admiral: £540.75 Liverpool Victoria: £559.42 Churchill: £510 Lloyds Insurance £502.92 Barclays: £512.19 Kwik Fit: £424.23 So went back to broker to see it they could do any better, they came back with £414.70 and it was a much package than the original quote. Well I thought I would try out a few more, from what people have mentioned here in the forums. Adrian Flux: £444.83 Premiun Search: £410 Greenlight: couldnt get close A-Quote: £447.21 Swinton: £530 Norwich Union (Quote me Happy): £584 Policy Shop: £422 So for the time and effort of doing some shopping around I have managed to save £140 on my original policy, which I am well pleased about considering I have had to make 2 claims on my insurance in the last 2 years. ![]() |

Offline | Insurance heartache I am 31 but have only been driving just over a year. Of course my first proper car was gonna have to be a mini. So I got myself a ONE. The cheapest by far for me was Tesco at £760. After a year it jumped down to £543, which was nice. Within a couple of months I moved 40 houses down on the same side of the road and when I let Tesco know this they told my premium had to rise another £130 back up to £670! What a blow. I feel as if they can make up whatever they like, and I did check with the underwriters themselves. The parking is even more secure but did it make a difference? If you havnt got your licence and a car already, GET IT SORTED! Dont bum about like me hanging round on street corners, get those no claims in |
