July 19, 201610 yr I've just had my renewal notice for my car insurance and it says that to cancel my policy, there's an admin fee of £50. This can't be right surely? I've always just searched for new and cheaper policies and cancelled them without a fee?
July 19, 201610 yr Cancelling your policy is done mid contract. To let the policy run its course, usually 12 months and then not renewing is called lapsing. There shouldn't be a charge for a policy lapsing.
July 19, 201610 yr Author Just been told that at work, I've got 'cancellation' confused with letting my policy expire.

July 19, 201610 yr That's spending the evening with Whitt that. You'll be a drooling head the ball if you carry on.
March 1, 20179 yr Saw a cracking rear ender this morning on the way to work. Approaching some traffic lights a bit of a honey comes jogging (more like jiggling and bouncing) out of a side lane way dressed in a tiny top and a pair of those sprayed on Mumbles in a sort of metallic rainbow pattern. Bloke in front of me is hypnotised and runs straight up the back of the car in front of him who had stopped for a red light. Just made me wonder what they write on the insurance incident report. "I was distracted by these magnificent tits"? Rear end crashes are commonplace in the city centre in Perth in summer. All the lasses come flouncing out of their offices at lunch time wearing one or two small pieces of cloth and it's fucking carnage on St. Georges Terrace.

March 1, 20179 yr Good to see car insurance will be going through roof in next few months due to this compensation ruling.
March 1, 20179 yr Good to see car insurance will be going through roof in next few months due to this compensation ruling. I'm not a violent woman but.... I'd love to go into the Annual Conference of Association of Personal Injury Lawyers in a Columbine stylee.
March 1, 20179 yr Good to see car insurance will be going through roof in next few months due to this compensation ruling. Yet more uninsured drivers. One politician saying the insurance companies can afford it nd should have put money as side for this; get real you jobber, they're just going to charge more. Oh and boobs distracting male drivers and consequential accidents is apparently more common than we might first think.
March 1, 20179 yr ours has gone up about £35 a month from last year. set of cunts Edited March 1, 20179 yr by L/H White
March 1, 20179 yr Mrs Sweep got her renewal through a week or two ago quoting about £100 higher than last year, anyway, the cheeky cunts took all the money out, in one go last week (bearing in mind it's today that the new policy starts) - anyway, she rang them up and made them pay it back and fucked off to Admiral who were about £50 cheaper

March 1, 20179 yr Fuck it off all together. There is better stuff avaialbe for free. Can you tell? If not PM me, please I have cancelled next years but was too late in doing so to get a refund, the cheeky fookwads!

The insurers gamble with introductory prices that most punters won't continue to switch and auto renewal is part and parcel of this. Just renewed mine as Churchill sent me a letter saying they would auto renew on 22 March at £120 more. I then tried four search engines and found one at £30 less than last year with lower compulsory excess and better free add ons. It pays to change every year.
March 1, 20179 yr It pays to change every year. Indeed, and she does change it every year, it's just the cheeky cunts removed about £400 out of her account 3 weeks before it was due to be paid
July 19, 20179 yr I wonder if the good folk of WW can help out with a car insurance query. My Mum has just been on the phone with an issue but it's got me stumped.... My sister has just come back from Uni and has been put on my Mums car for the summer, insurance said that her excess is much higher should she have an accident Any road, sister has come home tonight, half an hour later a neighbour comes round as the car has rolled down our drive over the road and into her house! Damage to her brickwork with a crack on the plaster inside. The lady from the house next door (semi detached) has come out and is saying that her house has a crack in it even though its meters away from the impact area Any idea on how this will play out with the insurance company? Will they charge the standard excess or the higher rate for my sister even though the car had been parked for half an hour?

Will they charge the standard excess or the higher rate for my sister even though the car had been parked for half an hour? First thing is how does anyone know your mum wasn't driving last and parked the car up and thus it was her not your sisters excess that should apply? Secondly insurance coy will try everything not to pay out which is standard.
July 19, 20179 yr they told the other parties at the time (without thinking I suppose) Guess it's best to be honest now and not risk giving false information With it being parked for half an hour I'd have thought it was irrelevant If my sister drove it last and it was stolen off the drive would they then charge excess at the higher rate?

Did it roll off the drive because hand brake not applied properly ?

Remember my dad telling me this.. so may not be true :P
July 19, 20179 yr Did it roll off the drive because hand brake not applied properly ? She said she put it on It was parked for at least half an hour and is a steep driveway so I can't see how it wasn't on, it would roll immediately Unless it was just not applied 100%
July 19, 20179 yr How old is the car? If under warranty may be able to claim under that and against manufacturer for defect. Long shot but possible if still under warranty that is
