Are the car insurance compaines taking the ****

[Challenger1978]

I've just been looking at renewing my car insurance through all the price comparison website.

Moneysupermarket,
Gocompare,
comparethemarket,
and another one i forgot the name of,

I drive a Fiat Brava 80sx (its only a 1.2), ive been driving now 2 1/2 years also i have 2 years no claims (well in a month). I've not been involved in any accidents or claims and i turn 31 before i renew my insurance. So how the hell has my insurance gone up from £812 to £969 (the cheapest quote), i only use the fucking car to take the Mrs to the shops or the hospital/doctors or the occassional visit back home to Manchester (6000 to 7000 miles).

No wonder loads of people are driving around with no insurance with the way the fuckers are putting the prices up like that the twats.

Along with the uninsured you can also blame the "had an accident in the past 3 years" brigade

The no win no fee ambulance chasers have to get their pound of flesh out the system, that also comes from your premiums

I paid £812 last year though which is possibly going to go up to £969 but i've got an extra years no claims discount. How the fuck do they work that one out the c.unts ?.

1st of all calm down!!! my wife has always been a named driver on our car since she passed her test in 03. a few months ago i changed our car, and as i have a works astravan, told her she could pick it without me trying to be an expert, about economy, reliability and the like. anyway she bought a petrol 2.0 golf gti with big alloys! |All the insurance company's were quoting between £1200-£1450. i got the cheapest from comparethemarket.com which was hastings direct. i phoned them and started speaking a load of shite about quotes i'd got from loads of different companies, anyway she is now fully comprehensively insured for £588 quid!

speak to someone on the phone and be prepared to lie. (about quotes not circumstances) and i'm sure you'll get a saving.

i'd like to know how you get on.

Anyone who thinks that insurance companies are charging too much to cover costs of claims and admin etc is free to start their own insurance company to undercut them.
