Steer VERY clear of "Fortis" if you have LPG ... :(

My existing policy has 14 days to run .. (31 May) ... they wanted £87:30 to put the LPG conversion on .... what a rip off :(

The guy from "Elephant" was very helpful, when I asked if I could take thier previous quote for 1 June and start it from today, he said there might be a problem as they normally need to see the LPGA certificate, could he ring me back ?? OK says I ... he rings back.. could I fax  a copy to them ... no says I, but I can scan and e-mail ... not acceptable it seems has to be a fax ... but I can't get to a fax machine without driving .... Oh ... can I call you back ?  OK... so he rings back in 15 minutes .. could he have the LPGA certificate number, Installer number, and Installer name/address .. all passed ... OK  I'll call you back .....

10 minutes later he rings back .. yes thats all acceptable, they can start the policy immediately, and, as they have "messed you about with all these call backs we'll give you a discount" .. so a £329 policy became £299... :)

So I have 1 years cover, with bodykit & LPG, fully comp for less than £300 ... well pleased  (SWMBO wrote off a car 2 years ago and she's a named driver so we always expect things to be a little higher than other folks  ), and it started today  :) ...  although I suppose I drove home yesterday illegally while Fortis faffed about ... but I didn't have a prang so not to worry ...

Nice to see the insurance companies making an effort.

My multicar quote, the guy said he would ring me back yesterday, he didnt.  But called today and appologised he had to go home felling ill yesterday.

He was talking to me from Halifax in the states/Canda (one or the other) dont think any one from the UK would have made the effort.

Nice one on the new policy matey,  :y
