Not had time to research this fully but they are doing car insurance in partnership with Churchill. If you find a cheaper quote you can get a cheque for double the difference back. My guess is that they will be "a lot" more expensive than A-plan, L&V etc so hopefully you can clain back "2 X a lot" !! Details here if anyone wants to try.

No definately not. Just stuck my details in and got £895. A-Plan quoted £469.00 and Privlege who I'm with now is around £500 mark.

I'm sure they'll have the usual caveats and get out clauses in place to reduce the elligble population to 3 penguins near the arctic circle and an orangutan called Bernard

if something seems to good to be true then it normally is. you have to actually take out a policy with them and cancel it later. they may charge for the short period you are insured which will probably be the same as the refund. you therefore get a cheque for 10p

Have to get a form from a branch or ring the number listed after you have taken out the policy.

Think I'll be staying with Privilege for another year. A-Plan quote was less but after you add in 2% for card payment and the bit about non standard audio equipment then is it worth changing just to save about a tenner?

I would give it ago had I not just renewed a few weeks ago and got a deal I was very happy with at L&V. Remember you can cancel any insurance policy within 2 weeks and get a full refund - this is a legal right. (unless you make a claim in those 2 weeks!)

2 weeks?? I may try this, but not sure i have the ***** to splash out £1500 though when i could get it for £700!!

austen_wrx

Ok so you don't get cash back you get credit, so basically you would have enough to pay next years premium, therefore i wouldn't save a penny over 2 years!!! I see how they are doing this now!!!

B@stards its a scam! I didn't read the rest of the line beyond "you will receive your cheque for double the difference..."
Annual premiums vouchers is not a cheque in my book and its obvious they will diddle you in the second year to recover their money

I've just seen your post regarding A-plan, seconds after I asked the question..!

Which number did you ring out of interest..?

austen_wrx

i think it was the one at the top of the a-plan main thread. But i did speak to the chap called Rob, what a refreshing change to talk to someone who knows something about cars!!
