    Is car insurance now fully a "haggling" game?

    last time i tried calling an insurer, few years back, i'd got a quote for [say] £200 + £15 legal cover. i did a bit compare the market type stuff and found a similar, good company, for £200 and legal cover included. i called my current people ll you match? got a flat-out "no" so i told them to...

    Garaging

    well the garage is attached to the house so that kills a couple of arguments. i would be tempted to say she's on the drive come my renewal, but i'm kinda honest and wary of those fraud threats they keep throwing at me as regards what i declare.

    Specialists VS Generic insurers

    i don't think you'll ever get a sensible answer when asking insurance companies about their prices, lol. you either get the "everyone is different" excuse, or "PM us for a quote" thing implying they'll make private deals if you bother them but won't make those offers publicly. every time i go to...

    Urgent help required, please :(

    "So I asked the man if it was ok for me to cover the costs without involving insurance companies and he agreed." you're supposed to notify them of any and all collisions, if you say next time you haven't had any they can class that as fraud.

    Adrian Flux Insurance Services – Up to 15% discount for club members

    when you say "very competitive", what's that in relationship to, given gocompare etc listed about 12 cheaper than the quote you gave me, and the one i went for was less than half? don't know how your dedicated handpicked team worked, but i got a quote through in under a minute which seemed to be...

    Cant get a good quote for first car 20 year old

    not trying to be funny, but someone as young as you, newly passed w/ no experience and driving something w/ "sport" in its name....i'm surprised you got a quote as low as that, TBH. example (probably a radical one, but still) :- Car insurance and young drivers: why one guy chose a tractor over...

    anyone used Audi Insurance?

    Am i misunderstanding terms here? Audi using *OEM* parts? i take it that's "audi but w/out the audi logo on", but i find it odd Audi themselves wouldn't use Audi parts. (going for the "most uses of the word Audi in two sentences" award there)

    anyone used Audi Insurance?

    as per the title, any comments about price/service etc? my renewal's up in Mar so i'll be going around the quote sites but Audi only do it by phone, judging from the mail they sent, so i want opinions to see if i'd be wasting my time! cheers...
