I just got a quote of £1211 from these!

I will be 36 years old at renewal and have 10+ years no claims!

I'd hate to think what they are charging new drivers!

Just had a renewal quote from Admiral and they wanted £750 phoned there customer service to see if they could price match Swiftcover who quoted me £325 ... but the best they could do was £725.

When i said i wanted to cancel they said id have to send a copy of my insurance policy to them with a cover note saying i wished to cancel..so i said its ok ill just cancel my renewal payment.
Girl on the phone didnt seem too happy about that but finally agreed to send a pre paid envelope to send it in .. needless to say i wont be sending anything .

As if Swiftcover's quote wasn't good enough after sending off my proof of NCB i got an email back today saying id got it wrong and i was entitled to 2 years more NCB than i had been quoted ..
and there crediting me with £8.06 id over paid

Well first off, a windscreen replacement freezes your NCB.

More worrying however, is that I cancelled on the phone (after they literally begged me to stay) and got my confirmation email, and headed off to gibraltar with my squadron. After a week of sun I turned my phone on to check messages, had literally 25 saying my insurance is up for renewal, they have tried charging my card but it is no longer available, (important to also point out that auto renewal was switched off) as I had a new bank card. Then I got one final message saying

"thank you for your payment of £925 (three times previous price), thankyou foor choosing swiftcover"

They had charged a card that they never had details for, never ever! How did they get hold of my details? Luckily they refunded me and apologised. But never again.
