Got the renewal for the car in on Tuesday, it's up €200 on last year, we didn't have any claim,
Rang my broker yesterday asking where I can complain,
She said to lobby the local politicians to get the law changed regarding the amount that is paid out to an insurance claim,
Seemingly in uk for example a fixed amount is paid out for a broken arm, where as here it can vary wildly depending on a number of factors, one being how good of an actor the claiming is and how good a story the solicitor puts across,
And to top it all off she also told me that the "older" cars are getting a loading as the government want newer cars on the roads
I said well what is the Fecking NCT for then
From now on I'm considering buying a cheap "newish" banger and not bother to maintain it to get reasonable insurance quotes. Which is not the answer I know but a bit frustrated,
Any body else got stupid renewal quotes for private car insurance?
