Annual Insurance Hike rip off
My insurance quote for 1.8 Focus - no changes from last year - no claims - has gone up from £573 to £745. A jump of 30%.
When I asked why they said it was because of increase in the number of fraudulent claims.
If they know which claims are fraudulent, why do they pay out ?
If they don't know which claims are fraudulent, how can they blame the increase on them ?
I haven't made any fraudulent claims - why am I being punished ?
Insurance is a wonderful business - if you make a loss, just bump up the premiums - can't lose

Just got my renewal for my Corsa - 11 years old , 1.0 and as near to worthless as possible - and it's up from £270 to £470 ! !
I had a look on Gocompare , and the same policy from the same insurer is £220 with half price breakdown cover thrown in - WTF
The cheapest on-line qoute I could find was £188.............which became £270 when you got to the payment page
Its cuz I is blond , innit

I've been telling a few to forcibly place their quote where the sun shineth not when it came time to do missus's car. They blamed my
no-claims not being with them and the previous bunch being too old...

The insurers are taking the p1ss out of us.....
My 11 year old Saab Turbo is has a few mods putting it in the 280-290bhp bracket.
I left Fluxx last year as they hiked me up from £320 to around £440 - I arranged cover elsewhere and rang them to cancel and they offered to price
match. After spending 6 hours on the net typing I told them to sling their hook.
This year my best fully comp quote , for a garaged Saab valued at £1500 driven by me only for 10,000 miles, was £650 !!!!
I am 45 and have driven since 17, one claim made in 1990. No speeding tickets, no convictions absolutely nothing !!
Im now down to tpf&t cover, same as above for £508. oooooh what a bargain
My colleague has a brand new Kuga @ £22,500 him and his wife fully comp at £340.
The worst quote from www.comparethebullsh1t.com was £8792
I bent the girls ear, not her fault but she also said it was all the false claims -
WHAT A LAME ANSWER THANKS, RIP OFF BRITAIN AT ITS BEST

If you know it's a false claim then DON'T F**KING PAY OUT
If you don't know then DON'T F**KING BLAME US!
Some companies appear to have an IQ of about 0.1% of what they're charging us
