I always check what is included (legal expenses, breakdown, kit cover etc, plus voluntary and compulsory excess) as cheaper policies are not always the best value.My renewal with Bennet's has gone up 20 quid this year (due Monday) looking at the meerkats its 12 quid cheaper than that with them & there is one a couple of quid cheaper than that
I’m with Bikesure and my renewal was cheaper last year than previous so I was happy. My BMs are expensive so I may keep the two of them with Bikesure and take me ‘Bird to a stand alone policy.its what I used to do when I had a few bikes all at the same time, a little research may get you a decent discount 2 bikes insured on one policy & another bike on a stand along policy can be cheaper than all 3 together & it sometimes works better to use different companies for different bikes
Remember companies on compare the market offer discounts if you are a new customer because they want the trade & the quote on there will often be less than the renewal from the same company because of this, it hacks them off no end if you take their net offer & when they ask for your proof of no claims you tell them to look at your last policy which was with them
I've had a gutful of that sort of thing, so my default response is now to take my business elsewhere.
Tis what I sad earlier, on the comparison sites you get treated as a new customer & get a discount in the hope that you will just renew the next year, I have done it a few time with the same company eg take the net offer then tell them my last policy was with you so look it up when they ask for proof of NCD …………. they really don't like it up em but there is nothing they can do
Just off the phone to them and, unsurprisingly, they've managed to drop it down to £500 from £549. However, Admiral, who increased my policy at renewal last year by almost £200, are coming in at £451. It's a no brainer really, switch back to Admiral now and then back to LV next year

25 minutes for LV and I lost my sense of humour waiting for Admiral after about 20 minutes. I called Admiral back 15 minutes before closing time and they answered within three minutes.
