Guys, instead of saying how just how much you pay, add a link, the brokers you use will get more business and will still be there next time

Insurance renewal

£1500

(up from £900 last year with an extra years NCB!)

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[edited by admin] off


My insurance renewal?

£4,947.64

Last year, £580.

Spent an awful lot of time on the phone, got it down to....


...£2,550.

More phone time, down to only...

... £1500

and then, down to...

... £1200

and yesterday, finally, deal at...

... £746.

25% increase on last year, and I'm happy? How did that happen?

Savings worth having - getting rid of the Limo's just goes on reaping rewards?

given your (probable) no claims bonus (mines only 3 years), that is either good or not so good?

You don't get "no claims" on a fleet policy. You get a claims history score. We have not had a claim free year since we started.
