Well hello all,
I am not too happy today!! I received my insurance renewal through the post last week and it was quoting more than i paid last year, even though i have another years no claims (now have full) and my accident back in 2003 has come off.
So i rang them asking if they could do a better price and they gave me a new price but still about £3 more a month than last year. So i've done some ringing around and found it all to be around the same price or more.
I then noticed that my insurance company give new customers a 10% discount, so i rang up and asked if i cancelled my policy and re did it could i have the 10% they said yes and starting to go through the motions to give me a new quote as a new customer. They then said as a new customer they couldnt cover me as the ratings on the car had no gone up to 27 (dont know what the hell that means or where that number comes from) and so they cannot offer a driver my age cover on the car! I was a little bit annoyed at this as they can offer me another year if i renew just not as a new driver!
I am really :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: :tsktsk: annoyed and just feel as though everything is just getting more and more expensive and have never had to pay more insurance when i have come to renew. I have no choice but to push harder to sell the car but suprise suprise the used car market is :tsktsk: and so i'm not getting a good price for my car and finding it hard to sell!
I really hate working my arse off to pay for tax, insurance, tax, petrol, tax, and then getting taxed on my earnings!!!
I could go on for hours about how people who abide by the rules are punished and how the greedy politicians line their pockets and who kick off a fuss if they cant have the John Lewis list for their expenses!!!
I really am fuming, it's not very often i get annoyed and have a rant but i really have had enough today!
I am still searching for a new policy and hopefully i can find somewhere cheaper so i can tell my existing insurer to stick it up their arse.
