Goodbye Land Rover Insurance ..hello APlan

So LRI added £400 to my renewal and refused to budge ...well after 14 years of loyalty ... Censored you LRI Thumbs Up

On a brighter note well done to APlan for sorting out a decent policy, a reasonable price and great customer service. Thumbs Up

also went with A plan , found there customer service second to none

alas loyalty in sticking with the same company doesn't seem to make any difference these days

A plan were also the most competitive in price

Well ....they have been relatively competitive in the past and last year I paid LRI £525 ....this year they wanted £920 and I was told that "someone has to pay for the increased claims of others" Rolling Eyes ...I said ...jog on ...they said ok Laughing

that's outrageous but doesn't surprise me in the least , loyalty means nothing these days

when i went from my freelander to the D3 i was getting quotes of over £1,500


A plan done it for just under £500 , inc breakdown cover, protected ncb

also liked there telephone manner, searching for a good broker that was competitive

As a family we have been with APlan for years. That have always been competitive but not always the cheapest, However, the cover has always been good and you get to deal with a human being. More importantly, when you have a claim they have always been good. Thumbs Up

But its True someone has to pay they are not charities they are a business

Reading this and many other topics that say claim for this claim for that its inevitable that policies are on the rise

If the blame and claim culture stays then premiums go up Censored Censored Censored

I was anticipating a rise of between £50 and £100 but £400 is obviously taking the Censored ...APlan managed to find me adequate cover for £525 which is around what I paid last year.

Getting insurance gets my back up. Was with a big name for 4 years, then last year they did the same and jacked up my premiums considerably and wouldn't budge.

Doing the annual insurance jig, I asked why being a loyal member and with 10yrs+ NCB it went up so much and was advised " as I haven't had a accident in such a long time its likely I will this year!"

Went elsewhere considerably cheaper.

You're not saying the premium was high coz they classed you as a young driver? Shocked Shocked

Ditched LR Ins a few years ago (they couldn't tell their ar$e from their elbow) & went to NFU, never looked back. £850 a year for cover on both the Ds. Thumbs Up
