Know of anyone who gives discount on a P1 for IAM drivers?????

Im hoping (nay, praying) that I should have a P1 on the drive within 6 months and I was wondering if its worth doing an IAM test to help with my premiums..
any advice??

also fwiw, I tred the schofield hughes web site for an investigative quote and it would not load. ?? rum? has the online bit closed?

Cheers!

Just to turn things around, howz about asking the IAM which insurance companies give discounts for members?

See http://www.iam.org/Services/

thanks.
I am aware of that link...
Not sure if they'd cover a P1 for someone under 30
..you never know tho right?
I just wondered if any "mainstream" insurers took IAM certification into account?

*that* is my question.

chrome,

There are a few insurance companies that do take the IAM cert into account and it is something that we ask when quoting for prospects/clients...

Off the top of my head I'm not sure which companies give a discount...and as usual I guess that those that do give discounts are not necessarily the best for scoobs ...c'est la vie I guess.

We will have a look at it for you if you want...numbers as above...

All the best

thing is Rum/Tom (which do u prefer?);
I dont want to waste your time by asking for a quote based on a "maybe"...

*IF* I can get a worthwhile discount for being an IAM member, then I will *become* a member and do the test
If not, then I might leave it a bit longer to do the AD test..
(still worthwhile doing imho... I don't want to bin the P1 due to my own mistake

Plus, the fact that I am still looking for the right P1 to come my way.... and that being 25 insurance cost is still very high and is a definite consideration (and if the wife how much its likely to be she'd nag me til I die! )

..best quote I had so far was £1435 from Tesco. £250 Comp XS, and £200 Vol' XS.
No courtesy car though. So it kinda cancels the good points out.

Let me know what you think...
