sedsy Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 Been with AF for 4 years now, the premium has never gone down and they have usually dropped a little of the cost if i say i have had better quotes. New premium is £235 with 3k limited mileage and guaranteed £9000 payout on total loss, full euro breakdown cover. £200 excess I am 34 years old with clean A*** i mean license Has anyone recenlty or in the past changed from these guys to another ??

Leon B Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I phoned up footman james when my renewal came through and they managed to get it over £100 cheaper. Contacted flux and they beat the price for me. Just goes to show if you don't enquire about the price they will continue to rip you off! Quote
Buzz Billsberry Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I still use AF On the V8 5000m pa Fully comp agreed value £18K,european break down cover, £200 excess £231.00 It pays to be an old fart!! Quote
Crazy Eddie Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 Flaming heck those are cheaper than I thought! I'm with AON and that costs £515 for 5000 miles limited but includes up to 6 track days a year and is covered for me (27) my wife (30) and my sister (25) had only just renewed for a year when then bought westie so will call around when insurance up to see because would cost me too much in cancellation charges to be worth swaping I guessed.

Barry Ashcroft Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I going to leave Footman James as there trying to have my pants down on renewal. Flux will get a call tomorrow. Quote
Fent Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I am currently with Adrian Flux paying £275 limited to 5K miles for car value of £5500. I just got a quote from Footman James for exactly the same and they gave me a price of £493. Thats a whopping £218 difference I think I am gonna be staying with AF. Quote
chazpowerslide Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I had a mare with my insurance this year mainly becaues I wanted agreed value which seemed impossible with the theft claim for my Pinto powered Westy 3 years ago. Footman James who I'd been with up to this year were hopeless, calls not returned details not logged ect, It was the same story with dealing with the Pinto theft claim. Utterly hopeless, they did the minimun, gave poor advice (said I should accept the first offer) and lost documents I passed onto them. It was the same when sorting out the aftermarth of being rear ended in the Westy last year, they really did'nt seem to give a damn and I ended up sorting most of it myself. I changed to Adrian Flux this year as they were the only company who brokered with a company called "Kinetic" These guys offered an agreed value policy despite the total loss on the Pinto powered car, 5K miles, euro break down and legal cover. They beat FJ by £60 for another 2000 miles, euro breakdown cover, agreed value and only £50 excess (FJ was £100) The cost was £123, fully comp. So far Flux has done everything I've asked, answered questions promptly and accruatly and been timely with their paperwork. I would'nt recommend FJ (I know they are a SS sponsor and the factory's prefered insurer ect) from my own experience with them. Chaz. Quote
jak Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I'm with Footman James ATM, but I'll be giving Adrian Flux a call next month, when the renewal is due. John Quote
RobC Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 i am with FMJ too although after phoning flux yesterday they would not be able to get it down below £250 for 3000 and 12k cover.... FMJ is getting my money this year at £187... not sure why mine is so cheap though compared to other...? Quote

cast iron Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 Im with AF but they have been a right with the motorhome insurance. I needed it quickly to pick the van up then got a cheaper quote off Chaucer who I used to insure the Westy with so might look at a bulk buy with chaucer next year Quote
Norman Verona Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 Why not give Dave at MSM a ring 01279 870535 Tell him Norman said he'd do the best deal. Quote
Captain Colonial Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 give sureterm direct a call 08702020230 just done mine with them 30 quid cheaper than adrian flux who said its the best price avalible you wont beat it and all the other sale bull they come out with Yep, another one with Sureterm. Old fart (47 yesterday), SEi Std w/ 1.6 CVH + twin Webers, £6K value, no other drivers, clean license, 3K per year mileage = £130 per year. Very effecient, but in fairness, never claimed on them, either, so don't know what they'd be like in a jam... Quote
Messer Posted May 14, 2007 Posted May 14, 2007 I am 26 and was previously with Flux, my renewal came through at £286, I rang around and found that MSM were the cheapest for me and came in with £165 comprehensive with legal cover and £100 XS. They were really easy to deal with too. Quote
