ronttuk Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I phoned my insurance company today about there renewal price they sent me a renewal in jan of £1355 because they hadnt updated thier records of a no fault claim i had when a lorry reversed into me, So with this claim taken off my policy my new quote is £1357 wtf i said how can that be i asked well they said you have had 2 non fault claims in the past 2 yrs so your a high risk even though niether claim was my fault and both admitted by the third party. insurance is the biggest legal con in the world!!!

AndrewOW Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 And you've just figured that out? It is disgusting, but who else is going to pay for the plush new offices and sports centres that these insurance companies seem to expect to be able to put up whenever they want?! Yeah, us.

Bobbeh Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 Happened to me with my old car many moons ago, mum was driving it and someone reversed onto the road into her... yet my premium still went up.. its just the fact that you've been involved in an accident, that's all there is to it. A joke indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiceRocket Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 They're thinking you're a magnet for other drivers to prang into and it's inevitable you'll be in another accident so they don't want the hassle. Probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSK Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 As mentioned, recorded accidents etc, regardless of fault never bode well with insurers. May be time to try elsewhere and try and take advantage of any introductory discounts etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
