SO  . . . i've been with DIRECT LINE for more than five years and never made a claim

I bought a new(ish) car last year - Renault Laguna in glossy black - and it lookswell shexy when its all polished up and stuff . . . never mind that now!!!

 

Anyhoo . . . last year my fully comp insurance was 400quid (the pound button aint working) and now they want 600quid !!!!!

When i called them i asked where is my DIRECT LINE "up to 70% no claims discount" and they told me "Oh, that's WITH the discount"

 

Wot the . . .

 

So i went to CHURCHILL and they gonna charge me - wait for it  . . . 400quid!!!

 . . . I would just like to apologise for that one there

I know a laydee who is  with Sheilas wheels, and they are meant to be very good, and insure men!!

If i'm in an accident i WILL NOT say,

"Who am i insured by  - oh its Sheilas Wheel"

No no no no !!!

 

 

 . . . are they cheap?

Every year I go to a comparison site for my insurance. Sheila's Wheels always comes up as one of the cheapest. I then phone the company I'm insured with, and say I'm thinking of changing as I can get it so much cheaper with Sheila's Wheels. Every year, they say well hang on a mo, we'll see if we can do any better. They always do. Not quite as cheap as Sheila's Wheels, but not far off.

 

When that no longer works, I'll definitely go to Sheila's Wheels!

They all do it - a lot of people will just renew it without looking around - so they give you a cheap deal to get you in and then start increasing it.  In fact by the sounds of it you actually haven't done bad to keep your premiums competitve with direct line for so long as quite often your premiums will go up by the 2nd year.
