Hi,
if you are not comfortable being placed with Amlin we can always look at a different underwriter for you... if you wish me to look into this and arrange a call back, PM me your details.
Thanks
^ apologies but we would need you to have a full 2 years driving experience.
Seriously well done on nearing the end of your first year without having a claim.. keep it up!
My company had a customer who drove the wrong way down a motorway slip road, crashed into a young female driver, crushed her legs and blinded her in one eye.. total payout so far (still ongoing) is £750,000. That is a lot of people's premiums..
Bare in mind the credit crunch, people are...
It really, really isn't . These people are driving around without insurance.. sure, on paper they look like they are insured.. in reality they are not. Have a claim and they may well be in a whole world of pain.
No not at all, it is a natural question to ask if you haven't heard of us.
This is fine, feel free to PM me your contact details and I will arrange a call back?
Thanks
Hi bud, just tried to reply to your last PM but you are over you mail box limit. (Damn you, I typed out a whole PM and then lost it ha ha!)
I just wanted to say that your Clio may already have thatcham approved security fitted as standard so there is no need to rush out and buy something...
There are a few floating around on the net..
Different insurers will have different restrictions though..
Feel free to PM me your postcode and I wont mind checking it against our lists..
We have been trading for 25 years but the car club business is about 6 years old.
We are very well known within the Japanese car club scene, we are the offical insurer for many of these clubs, eg Mkiv Supra Club, FTO OC.
Here are some of our current affiliated clubs...
Dont worry guys, I'm more than used to the odd winger, it is the nature of the hateful insurance business.
I totally understand the member's frustration however. For us, when you have a customer on the phone who ticks all the rights boxes except for one thing (eg where the car is kept...
Either in a garage or parked off the street.
In the particular postcode this member lives in, our underwriters have a high rate of car break ins and vandalism.
I hope that explains why we were unable to quote (via our car club scheme) with the car kept on a public road overnight.
Ollie...
Hi,
first of all, thank you for trying us and my apologies we were unable to help you.
To be insured via our car club scheme we need you to meet certain criteria, in higher risk postcodes there may be some extra criteria, eg the car must be kept on driveway parking when parked overnight...
Thanks again for this guys.. I try and pass on all your feedback to the guys you actually speak to on the phone, I just sit behind a computer screen all day ha ha!

You are certainly right to point it out Will, I have been saying the same thing for a few years now. Luckily some insurers will accept it but not all.
If you think about it logically, a years NCB is exactly that.. a year = 12 months not 10 months.

You have PM, we should be able to give you a realistic price on this.
We are only open today until 1pm so get calling now!
Tel 02083645500, make sure you mention ClioSport membership for your discount!!
Drew, it'll usually done as a percentage load on your premium.. eg if you pay £1500 per year for insurance, you will be charged a lot more for these mods than someone paying £300 per year.
Being honest, what other people pay is not going to help you.
Give my company as call, we offer a 20% discount to Clio Sport members!
Feel free to PM me your contatc details or call us on 02083645500 mentioning your club membership.
Thanks
Unfortunately a hell of a lot of UK insurers outsource to foreign call centres.. great for keeping costs low, insurance prices low, not so great when you have a claim/query/question/modification :rolleyes:
