The insurance on my S5 is due for renewal this month. Saga were kind enough to let me know the premium would be increasing from £326 to £1711
Now I was expecting an increase given I took out a 3 year fixed price policy when I originally got the car which at time I thought was cheap but as I now have an extra 3 years no claim bonus and the value of the car has obviously decreased, I thought 500%+ was a little excessive!
For a laugh I phoned Saga to express my shock, disappointment etc etc and literally the agent was speechless when they looked at the renewal and could not explain why the premium had increased so much given nothing had changed. However they did say they wanted to keep my business and therefore if I renewed they could offer me a £40 discount as I was a loyal customer .
Aviva turned out to be the cheapest at £650 which was more in line with what was expecting to pay.
