Insurance up for dash cam

[IRONy_MAN]

Hi All just had a conversation with my insurer Diamond aka bell aka admiral to let them know that I have fitted a dash cam for my own safety and insurance reasons and obviously I ve asked for a discount on my insurance and the operator s answer was that I should pay £20 extra per year for it Isn t this crazy???

That's mental. Most offer discount if it's a particular make and model of cam but never heard of them putting it up!

Hi,
Amazing!
Just to let you know that a number of our insurance schemes do offer discounts of up to 15% for a wide range of approved in-car cameras.

Hi Dan does it have to be one of the branded ones to get the discount as I have a streetwise unit but it isn't listed in your list of cam

Adrian Flux - will you add the Thinkware F770 to your approved device list?

The list is hardly exhaustive , some of the best £50-£100 dash cams aren't there, 1440P too .

Provided it is HD this should not be a problem.

I recently contacted my insurer...Swiftcover, as I didn't have a dash cam fitted at time of renewal, (March) but fitted it around end of May of this year and also when I checked "my swiftspace" they had the car listed as being parked on the road overnight whereas it's actually in a locked garage overnight. So I made the alterations and hit "enter" expecting to see a reduction in the premium...they came back asking for an extra £18....WTF. So I hit the "cancel changes" button.. Total rip off insurance companies. It makes you wonder why there are so many uninsured drivers out there that have just said "**** you" to the insurance companies. The downside to that is all us "legal" drivers have to pay for it..

@RS4 Cookie the reason it went up is the cars less of an insurance risk on the road. If it's in your garage/driveway thieves know it's your car thus break into your house for the keys = higher risk!

Just remember if you have a accident and its your fault there's evidence then that will go against you . That's what my insurance told me when I asked if I would get a discount next time. They said its very handy to have one until your to blame
