There is a lower cut off age here, isn’t there.
At the moment, I am finding SwiftCover the cheapest too. Iggy Pop is advertisng them on Sky TV during Futurama and Stargate. He seems old enough for a Crossfire, you know. *KOFF* *Splutter*
I just had comparethemarket.com phoning me up wanting to throw a lot of quotes at me over the phone, and no doubt pushing me into paying now.
This I don’t need. I like to make such decisions in my own time.
I’m taking the cheap quoters on the comparison sites and going to them direct as well, just to see what I can save that way (comparing the comparisons...). Swift Cover is around £290 direct, or £330 via moneysupermarket.com. You have to watch the excess though - comparison websites seem to assume £500 - I’ve yet to see a returned quote for less than that. Swift Cover’s excess is £250 on their web site, and it’s cheaper. SwiftCover’s APR is around 27% on monthly payments. I may have to find the full whack to save more.
The next task: tell current insurers that there is no way I am staying with them unless they can match the price. I hate this. They try to talk you into staying, and I had enough of that when I switched mobile phone carriers.
