Default Funny as f**k!!!!

HIC sent me my renewal quote on the Fiesta Zetec S, £597 fully comp, I thought it was a bit dear so asked them to take my misses off to reduce it,

She is 24 and has been driving about 4 months.

They said it would cost more if she was taken off it

I'm 27 with 6 years NCD and run 2 policies with them and they try to pull that one over me, if it was true, why did it cost me more to put her on it??????

I don't remeber hearing " well we will give you some cash back if you put your misses on as it will make the policy cheaper"

I heard "well for the remaining 3 months of the policy, we will charge you £60 to put your misses on"

Insurance companies, why do they do it. Always really rated HIC aswell as they seemed to have abit of common sense about them

Then privilage gave me an internet quote for £384 fully comp, but could get the 3 points bit to work so phoned them, they quoted £606.00, I told them about the quote on the internet and they said it had jumped up because of the 3 points for my SP30 I got 2 years ago Yep cause it did!!!!

Tesco £475

That is exactly the reason I left them. Took too damn long for anyone to answer the phone.

My mate put his missus on his policy on Astra 1.4 & they gave him over £100 back cos she was over 30 & a teacher!

Insurance isa bloody rip off and sucks ass.
