HAVING A LAUGH.....YEAH RIGHT
« on: 30 November 2006, 19:22:00 »

 THat time again insurance runs out at 1.00a.m. tonight. Had a quote from performance direct at £570.00, without protection, £612.00 with. Thought that was good, as my current insuraners quote was £739.79. Anyway advised my insurere of the lower quote, low and behold they reduced it too £605.30. :y

This morning I e-mailed performance direct just to confirm that the quote covered the irmscher modifications etc.,..e-mailed back saying no...it would be considerably higher as the quote is online and insurance is provided by AXA. I e-mailed him back saying why can that be my curremnt insurer has offered at £605, mods insured, free this free that, 1k stereo cover, 250 excess, but no claims protection. Anyway he replies stating my insurer must have a special undewriting deal with AXA to be able to provide the lower quote, which they don't have..OK fine and Thanks. ::)

So I contact my current insurer..Oh yes Mr Bla Bla Raindow sheep ;D ;D...£739.00..no I replied got a lower reduced quote at 605..Oh yes Mr Bla Bla Rainbow sheep, she replied........Can you provide me with a quote to protect my 10 yrs no claims please, Yes I will call u back later, which she did and.......wait for it........Well Mr Bla Bla Rnbw Sheep to do that you are on unlimited mileage, bla bla bla, so it would be.......£790.00 ;D ;D  (   .........Laugh nearly fell oot ma chair.....No thanks I will stay unprotected then, call back later and pay the policy...Bye. :y

It was more to do with work than anything else, anyway based on post codes and crime, its really a load of crap, I would really like to know how they justify the high insurance costs, probably still paying off for the twin towers >:(
