Insurance rant...

[tonyf]

Anyone use a decent multi-bike insurance policy... I'm with MCD/Aviva. Sp1 and Speed Triple on it - just had a monster rant at them based on changing a number plate and actually having a 'cheaper' Speed Triple (955 instead of 1050) and they're still charging me!!

Also just discovered that the excess on trip is £250 with £500 on my SP!! Pin-out time...

I am with IAM Surety and they just added my BMW on to my current policy and then charged me £55 to cover me until April (when the storm's policy runs out) The £55 included a £16 admin fee. The underwriter is KGM.

The only thing with IAM Surety is that you need to have passed the IAM test.

use tesco insurance comparison m8 - you will be surprised how low you can get it.
i use ebike meself - not the cheapest but easiest to swap & change, add bikes, riders etc with no gay admin fee.
use their online service to tailor a quote to suit, trim excess, add mods, security, pillion cover, eu cover, breakdown cover etc
just to annoy you.... mine is £87 a year fc for my firestorm, cbx750 & zx750 & that's with 6 points lol....
before i added the zx it was only 78 - the cbx is 25yo now so i don't pay for that one, you get a free classic bike policy with your standard policy

also if you pay it monthly by DD there is no extra charge and you get a year's no claims discount for every 8mths continuous cover.

The lass on the phone has filled in a 'Grumble' form and I've told then to sort it out. My insurance has still got 6 months left on it, not sure how much you lose out but its got to be worth a looksie....

Oh and if there's something to rant about, it's car insurance. Mine's just cost me £700. Robbing twats.

Your not wrong Mike. I pay £129 on the SP.

My car insurance is about £540-it's disgusting

All a sign of the country we live in

mike, i use endsleigh for my mg - for the mrs & me (6pts) as named drivers it was only £158 with free green flag - 100s cheaper than the nearest quote.
give them a try - i've been with them for years now & no silly renewal price rise either.
