It's quite substantial too. My average policy is about £400 and just by putting my wife on it drops by about 15 per cent. All the policies are fully comprehensive with a no claims discount. I insured the tractor and our Uni Mog the same happened there!<br />Over here you are better off either changing insurance companies annually or at least threatening to do so or the price just continually increases!Rohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03804288884191121969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937170202895477126.post-7387378163206650582015-01-23T20:17:31.176-05:002015-01-23T20:17:31.176-05:00Glad it worked out for you.

We also dropped collision on the vehicle for the same reason. This week, I finally got around to comparing the cost of another insurance, through an independent agent. I'll soon be going with a different company, where I'll get three times the coverage for $45 a month less than I'm paying now. Once in a while, things DO work for the best.Gorges Smythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777621500611603786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937170202895477126.post-70188380450317171032015-01-23T18:47:10.958-05:002015-01-23T18:47:10.958-05:00I pay $180 quarterly.

Last year I got tired of their too often rate increase, so I called them asking for a reduction. Three cars, no moving violations, excellent credit score. The pricks spent the entire call trying to find a way to increase my premium which was $1,880 for 6 months. I called around and now pay $811 for better coverage. <br /><br />You right Mayberry it's a racket, but one I am forced to be a part of; kinda like YoBamaCare, right?<br /><br />-MoeMoehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09464046406342523552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1937170202895477126.post-7382791663465635882015-01-23T16:45:57.085-05:002015-01-23T16:45:57.085-05:00"Insurance" is the biggest fraud ever.
