I was with e-sure a few years ago, paid £460 full comp, 20 years proof e.t.c the next year they wanted £595. when asked why, they said all policies had risen that year, but not by 25%+ I said. I finally used my advanced driving test pass and got better cover with only £100 excess for £305 with breakdown included.

Fully comp insurance with Esure.

Just myself and Mrs Opti on the policy. Full NCD. Omega 2.6.


2009.....£166.10
2010......£185.85
2011.....£255.94......a 38% rise. Why?......due by 8th July.

Time to reconsider?


I was quoted £590 from my (now ex) insurer. Went on the direct line website and got it for £325. I would try direct line, they are not on comparison websites and you have nothing to lose except 10 minutes.

Direct Line took mine from £350 upto £870 to renew...  I told them to break off!!!  I found LV to be about the cheapest (but they wouldn't take monthly payments) and as such I actually insured through Kwik-Fit and got it for about £385...

I think the reason that I got such a good deal with direct line is because I'm so handsome. Ugly b'stards, like a few on here, must expect to pay more.

I always shop around and you'd be suprised at how much you can get knocked off for just asking.
Get a good quote off someone, ring your insurer back and tell the the other quote (but knock a bit off it for your admin :y) and more often than not they'' match or better it.

I had my home and contents with a certain bank for a long time and didn't really notice how much it had increased. Rang round a few insurers and got exactly the same cover for 70% less.
Rang the bank back and they instantly reduced their premium to 50% of the renewal, still not good enough so told 'em to stuff it.
They all rely on us being lazy  >:(

But I don't live in Liverpool. I moved out years ago under the witness protection scheme.
