Feeling Robbed
Time for a rant!
At 20years old I was pretty pleased to receive an insurance quote of �677 for next year including all the helmet, leather and key protection etc etc.
I rang the company, Express insurance, to see if i could pay the amount in a lump sum to avoid paying interests and what not. Whilst on the phone and checking details, i told them I had had a change of employment and wanted to change the amount of miles per year. Pretty simple you would have thought?
It would seem not! The quote I had received through the post then became invalid and I was told that even if I had let the insurance roll on (as they stated i could do in the letter) I would not have been insured. My quote then went from 677 up to �1400. After a bit of arguing my case I have managed to get my quote down to �1000, still steep i know!
The most annoying part is that they stated I did not have to call, and that my insurance would continue to be taken out of my account and i would be covered. What would have happened had i not called them? I feel as if the quote they sent was just to lure me in and then mug me off with a ridiculous quote!
Anyone else been robbed like this by their insurance?
