Anyone in B64 postcode area?

[theduck]

If so who are you finding competitive on insurance?

Apparently B64 is same risk code as my current postcode but its still putting insurance up

Cradley Heath? It's f**king hole in general, thats probably why!

 

[theduck]

Shush!

Theres nice bits of Cradley, trust me, I'm an estate agent

 

[ForceIndia]

There's nice parts of Basra, I'm still not fooking moving there!!
I imagine insurance codes are worked out on the risk and the actual crime rates. The bad parts of CH would probably make the crime rate quite high. TBF though, anywhere in/around Brum is expensive for insurance. Harborne's safe as houses, and my insurance is still silly.

Well I live in Stourbridge (DY8) now and thats a 'B' Rated post code, apparently B64 is also a B rated code yet still its more expensive. This is on top of my premiuim going up anyway

Well Harborne's uber safe, yet because of it's proximity to the city centre it's still a referred postcode area.

fair enough. I'm sure they make these things deliberately complicated just to increase turnover.

Stourbridge is a crap postcode.
It's not as bad as some others mind...
However my mate across the way in bridgnorth pays pennies to insure his astra. I mean like £100 a year.

 

[Reyes]

I think its a lovely area. Apart from the nasty bits where there are kebabs by every corner and TONNES of souped up civics with vinyls all over them. (By Bronx estate..)

Stourbridge is a good postcode tbh. once your 24 and have 6 years NCB anyway Insurance on something small and sensible is about £150 lol.

I'm B14, bang smack in the middle of Harborne!

Try Greenlight mate, they were easily the cheapest for me

 

[theduck]

greenlight declined to quote!

 

[Phill90]

Im DY5 and my mates quote for DY8 is £200 cheaper, on same insurance group cars and his car has lots of mods declared and is newer and more expensive

 

[theduck]

DY5 is hella expensive! Much worse rating than DY8 and B64. IIRC DY5 is a 'D' rated post code.

 

[Phill90]

Its stupid, go to Lakeside/withymoor, and its not bad but still better then quarry bank which is where i live all DY5, which is also a 5 minute drive from DY8 roughly

Flol that bad!

f**k knoes, didnt say why. TBH have always found 'speacialist insurers' just to be expensive. Flux wanted £1250! Having shopped around even if I wasnt moving my premium is higher than last year so just have to take it on the chin.

Lol man, I rang adrian flux to get a quote on a nissan 200sx I was going to buy and they quoted me £921, that was with all mods declared (car was running 350bhp).

I'm in b63 btw.
