Talking

I guess yours was less because of your postcode (N Down is one of the most expensive areas in NI):-(

You can get a quote on their website (as I am sure you know)
It will be interesting to see if the official renewal is the same.
They claim that they give extra discount to clients who renew.
even 5% would be something

Andy - I'm in BT8 as well. Had to pay 500 quid for a 106 last month. Moved from BT9 4 years ago, and previously lived in BT17, which is the other most expensive one, mainly cos it contains twinbrook and poleglass . Maybe I should get a house in the country

my official renewal with Quinn was £1250 but I rang around and got it with Hughes for £1090 Thats with protected bonus btw
The highest quote was about £2000

I was with Hughes 2 years ago and their renewal was £1300 then.
Go Figure !

Good Luck everyone - it pays to shop around

Areas are rated by a number and this gives them your quote , 1 being the most expensive , getting less with each higher number . A bloke just started at work having moved from Nairn in Scotland . There he was rated as a no 29 . Here in BT9 he is a no. 2 and his insurance has quadrupled .

I worked in Lincolnshire and was insuring my 1.3 205 GR for £280 FC . I left the job and I informed my insurance company , Swindon ,I was moving back home . They cancelled the policy and the cheapest insurance I could get here was £1000 for TPF&T only !

Unhappy

**** lads I was having a good morning till I read this! Now my heads going to be F***ed for the next three weeks waiting for my renewal notice. By the way does 3 wee points make much of a difference?

Got my renewal notice this morning from Quinn Direct. £995 up about £100 from last year. 99 turbo (bog std), full no claims (protected), MY1962, 3 points, BT35.

Not brilliant but I suppose could have been worse.

Pat

ps Derek I was in Fermanagh yesterday and I think you got 50% of your sunshine quota!
