Well it's that time of year again; that fun time where you spend ages on the phone to call centres or hours entering the same data over and over again into websites, only to find another insurer who wants to charge you some ridiculous premium.
My renewal notice came through from Admiral at £573, which was roughly the same price as last year. I'd done a lot of hunting when I bought the S3 and that was the cheapest I could find at the time (and just happened to be who I was already insured with). I was sure there was some money to be saved though, and on the advice of MoneySavingExpert I tried some price comparison websites. Boy was I glad I did!!
I'd tried Confused.com a few years ago and being the pessimist I am, wasn't really too surprised to find that you could get a cheaper quote by going direct to the broker. Imagine my surprise when MoneySupermarket found me a policy with eSure for £377!! Yes that's right..a £200 saving!! Taking the same approach as confused.com I popped onto the eSure site and did a quote direct with them and it came out at £425, so using MoneySupermarket actually same me £50...w00p!!
£377 for fully comp on an S3 in a dodgy Portsmouth postcode can't be sniffed at! :thumbsup:
