Default Its that time of year again, insurance due...

Car insurance is due again, doesnt it come round quickly? I would like to change providers even though I have a very low price from my current insurer. I would ideally like to go with a company with UK call centres. It just makes life easier if I need any help or assistance, I had a torrid time a few years back with Norwich Union in trying to sort a problem out.
Any way, has any one got a policy with a good quality company with UK call centres? I tried NFU but their quote was two and a half times what I already pay. I dont mind mind paying a little extra for good service.

Any suggestions would be most appreciated......

Direct Line have always served me well. Not always the cheapest but usually the easiest to deal with. Were great on claims too.

That said, they are annoying the **** off me at the moment with a closing statement of account.

Liverpool Victoria are worth a shout. But they now seem to require trackers on everything.

I also use Quoteline Direct

Having finally got a UK Spec car after many, many years of an import elephant.co.uk were the cheapest for me and only £25 excess.

Online quote, but they have call centers in the UK if there is a problem.

Give Keith Michaels a look. We've been with them for three years now. Excellent policy. Excellent service. UK phonelines. Cheapest prices too
