Annual renewal time again

Just had the renewal from LV for my FL2, max no claims (1 claim 4 years ago), business use included. Up from £455 last year to £459. Cheapest other quote online was £403 but with very minimal legal cover compared to LV and and unknown company.

Rang LV and an immediate drop to £440 so I may as well stick with them yet again, making it 3 years in a row for me.

this has happened to me for the last couple of years with LV,
renewal showing a large increase,
I check on line then a phone call to them and they've adjusted the pricing down, Thumbs Up
I'm more than happy to stay with LV at the moment as the general feedback about them has been very good.

Interestingly my renewal came up with Admiral last week with the "obligatory" 25% increase despite no claims and no other changes

When I looked on Confused.com LV came up as the cheapest option at about £360 like for like

I used that information to negotiate Admiral down which saves all the inconvenience of switching

mine is slightly higher due to needing business use cover and having made a claim in November 2013 (so it wont be clear until next years renewal)

im happy to stay with LV even if they are slightly higher than the cheapest ones as there is a better chance of them paying out should I need (fingers crossed!) plus the hassles ive had in the past getting no claims sent across etc means an extra £20-£30 per year isn't worth switching.

hmm... don't know if it's worth a separate thread, so apologies in advance.

I have UK insurance as I travel on the continent a lot (and sometimes more than the 6 month limit), so I pay double.

Hi Carlie
I have Saga insurance which offers unlimited time in EU without any additional cost and I don't have to notify them whenever I go. Does A Plan Insurance offers the same?

Hi

We have various policies with different options, it depends on different types of vehicles, what they are used for etc.. as to what is offered, so we would need to look at the full risk to advise you correctly on this.

But in short, yes we do have certain insurers who offer this specific cover Very Happy

Thanks

same here RogB, stayed with LV 5yrs now, great to deal with and only £8. to add the window tinting. If it wasn't so bad it'd be funny.
