Well I had an hour to kill Satdee morning whilst taking a ride on a big red and white Mk3 from southampton
And this wasnt so much a " I wanna save more money " cos it wasnt a lot in the first place but more give the forum sponsors a try - as part of the mod team I felt I should - be good to give first hand feedback. So here it is
Greenlight - after a very brief chat, and me explaining my renewal cost and basic details, I was told that they wouldnt be able to compete, not in a rude way, but just an honest and straight forward answer so that was that.
Sky - started going thru a quote, seemed keen until I said how much my renewal was and then stated " a renewal that cheap and you still wanna save a few £££'s "
that sort of ended the call
HIC - Fair play to Josh, went thru the whole quote, and DID beat my renewal, unfortunately, it would mean doubling my current excess ( voluntary + compulsory ) compared to my current insurer.
So, it goes to show, shopping around does pay off sometimes, and some companies do actually want your business and will work hard to get it.
More importantly I found mine thru a comparision site, it has only gone up a few quid in the two years I have renewed with them, and with most things they get mixed feedback. I havent had to claim, and thats when I will see if cheap is better after all
