Just got mine in and it is £123.54 Fully Comp

This is with Bennetts and a renewal of my last years policy.

I could have got it for £112 with another insurer but they are not as well known as Bennetts, so I am happy to stay with them.

I am very pleased.

Just had  :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol: my renewal through..... :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:

wait.......

its coming .......

£1075   WTF


Up by £200 with one bike less, now only 2 bikes.

Currently with Carole Nash on a Non auto renewal basis.

I have never continued with insurance on a yearly basis as I rode for 2 years or so then use to take a year off because I didnt want my sons to get into them too much...

Anyway, had a quote from Bennett's with 1 year NCB, of £515 premium, £600 excess but no breakdown cover....no biggy.

Went back to Carole Nash ( who wasnt available ,  :mfr_lol: ) and asked ( politely ), why ?.    No answer really, but a really helpful guy wanted to know more info in detail about the bikes and security, usage etc which were questions that are not asked normally when quoting.  It went to underwriters and now the excess is £350 and premium £550.

Which I am happy with as it includes breakdown and pillion and I dont have to mess around swopping insurers.

I did tell them its about time they rewarded loyalty, he agreed but its all about new sales.........such a shame .....

mine has just come in at 165 fully comp with protected no claims with Swinton, which sounds great but it's 50 quid up from last year, quite a percentage increase. bennetts have quoted me 114 quid for the same or 145 inc breakdown cover and legals etc etc. I swapped from bennetts the year before as they bumped up the policy price for last year. I wish these companies would stop arsing about and give people decent quotes for renewals, or do they think we're too stupid to use the Internet? maybe they've always worked this way, but are getting sussed out now with people checking on the net instead of endless phone calls as it used to be in the past.
