Default Confused.com? What a JOKE!

Renewal time again, and Admiral give me a lame £20-30 off of last years. o on to confused and go through all the crap to get a lovely quote from 'Done Deal':


£10,399.03!!!!!!!!!!


This isn't a 1000bhp cossie or anything, its a 1.8 focus , i have 4 years NCB im 22.(£500 Excess)

I still think £580 FC from Admiral is rediculous, and my postal code is only a 'C' risk area.

Confused.com is shit, if you have any modifications at all you might as well not bother even trying to get a quote via them.

Greenlight have provided me the best quote for my RS so far although I'm waiting for Flux to get back to me.

I always seem to get a good deal with Direct Line, happy with what I pay, and have stuck with them for a good few years now.

have tried all the comparison sites.

MoneySupermarket gives the best results IMO.

It told me to go with Swiftcover for 320 quid. Thought -'feck this'. Went to swiftcover directly and granted, it was 320 quid.

Got told to use a 'cashback' site (best one being TopCashBack)
Signed up. Cleared my cookies and clicked on swiftcover via TopCashBack's link.
Got 45 quid cashback for taking out the insurance at 320.

They paid me the 45 quid after a month or two.... well worth doing IMO.
Try it. Deffo will be doing it at renewal time, too.
