How are Direct Line with mods?
Hi all
Does anyone have any experience with Direct Line and nodded car insurance? I'm with them at present, having a few mods done next month and seeing some of the recent posts on here about rocketing premiums I have a feeling they'll stuff me
Cheers
Gary

Cheers mate that's actually good news as I'm assuming that means they can't charge me as I will be forced to switch insurers before my renewal date

When your mate had the mod done and had to switch insurers do you know if they charged him a cancellation fee for switching before his renewal date?
I've had a good quote from A Plan, not got hold of Gary at KM yet so confident I have an insurance company to move to but don't want to get hit with a cancellation fee aswell

To the OP, believe all insurers charge a cancellation fee of some sort. Should be a table os some sort with relevent rates on in your paperwork somewhere.

I spoke to Direct Line today and they do cover mods (to a point) and power upgrades up to 20%. The problem was the guy had no idea what i was talking about so I was not happy I would be properly covered. I listed Remap (it took him 20 mins to find out how to list this) and ehhaust which increased my insurace by £300 and thats before I went through anything else so I asked about cancellation, Its £26 admin charge which seems fair enough

Directline do do mods but they don't want to.
2002 STi UK, standard, £387.00 fully comp
I asked for a re quote adding prodrive rear spoiler, ht auto front splinter and sti9 bonnet scope and it went up to £890.00.
That was when Gary started getting pester off me.
