Default Insurance. I'm annoyed!

Could someone explain to me why I have to pay extra on my premium when the accident wasn't my fault. I got shunted at traffic lights and now have to pay £200 extra a year for the privelage. Thanks Mondeo man.

Go back and query it because that shouldn't happen.

The only thing I can suggest, is has the claim been settled. If not they'll load you as if it was your fault and then refund you when the claim is resolved. If it has been settled then change companies.

It's settled. I have been doing what I always do the old comparison web sites if I tick the box for an accident in the last five years regardless of blame, the premium shoots up.

I'm currently with A-plan, but they haven't halved my renewal. I'm going to try Keith Micheals and Greenlight to see what they can do for me.

Worth Checking out the insurance forum
