stevie_b Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 My supra insurance is due for renewal soon. I recently had a small accident in the supra which was not my fault, although the other party is disputing this. I'd like to move insurance companies (to Sky) because I've had a cheaper quote from them with a lower excess. Do you think changing insurers whilst the accident is being sorted out will affect the outcome of the liability dispute, or cause problems? E.g. are they likely to say "well, Steve's dropped his business with us, stuff him, we won't bother to help him anymore and just admit liability on his behalf". I'd be really interested to hear what you think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicmatty Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I dont think they would be able to do that - but unless the full years insurance is up - some will make a charge to cancel... Do you pay monthly?? How far into the year are you ?? You will probably loose a years no claims then if you cancel - is it worth it?? I would prob let the term finish and look elsewhere then, rather than leave them... Depends on the answers above! ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_b Posted September 18, 2005 Author Share Posted September 18, 2005 Matty: the insurance is due for renewal soon, and that's when I'm thinking of swapping providers. I won't be cancelling before the insurance expires: like you say, too much hassle. Stevo: thanks. That's what I was hoping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra steveo Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 the accident happened while they were insuring you so its there job to put it right, they will probibly take your NCB off you until the case is closed then reimburse them to you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magicmatty Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 If the case is still open, then technically you shouldnt "lose" any NCD whan you move ! I was in the same boat AND changed the car....They had to renew me with FULL NCD cause it wasnt closed ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbourner Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I couldn't get a quote from anywhere when my claim was pending, all the insurance companies said there's a claim pending on that car so we can't quote you!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
