insurance company's i've tried!

[skyeten]

Footman James

Getting my new (and first ) Surf on Sat, trying to arrange insurance at the moment and trying companies on the list, best by a long way is Footman James , amazing at £211 comp with protected no claims and some sort of breakdown insurance thrown in, that certainly quoted me happy !
BTW I am 42 with 7 years no claims etc, and stay in a low risk area (Isle of Skye)
Cheers and thanks for the info on Footman James (I would never have found them on my own)

Try Norwich Union Direct

Just been quoted happy by Norwich Union Direct

Applied for insurance on the web site www.norwichunion.co.uk which as I have no NCB managed to get an automatic 20% discount - then phoned up as I needed a cover note with the chassis no on to keep DVLA happy and they honoured the web site price and had a cover note out in two days £420 per annum wife one accident and a few points!!

I was happy with my quote from Lifesure until I got the certificate - £300 excess which doubles if I have any claim, whether I am at fault or not.
Not impressed, will definately be looking round again next time.

Insurance

I had a hell of a time trying to find an insurance company who would do Jap imports, then I asked Tesco and it was no problem, less than £500 fully comp, and I have zero no claims bonus and I park in the street.

Following my last post (about 3 back) http://www.yotasurf.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?p=79864#post798 64 I have just received a phonecall from the chap at Lifesure who says he has seen my post and my excess has now been reduced to £200 and the double excess following any claim I made has now been removed. Thank You Lifesure, my faith has been restored.

Insurance woes



I've just waisted a weekend trying to get cover for my new surf, following numerous telephone calls to my current insurer IT's 4 Me The've finally told me "they don't cover imports!"

So I've now taken an afternoon of work to try and get cover.

After much surfing (no pun intended) I've spoken to a very very nice man from Lifesure insurance brokers who has given me a very competitive quote (£520, 7 years no claims, fully comp + business use & parked on street at night)

they were not the cheapest, but were the best in terms of cover and excess (£200)

They asked if I would mention them so here goes

Lifesure you have saved my bacon!........ Thank you!


If you can't stand the heat......... turn the heating off!
