Well spent some time filling in all the details you require, emailed in as you suggested and guess what...? Nothing no reply.

Great service, thanks...

Funny, the last person to say that had given us the wrong mobile number! Can you pm me your name & postcode and I'll check it out please as we contact everyone without fail!
 
I received a call on my mobile today 8th June, (obviously the correct number was given) Email was sent on the 4th. I expected an email reply or call on the 7th due the weekend, like I said seemed a little slow to me, but maybe i'm fussy ?

For your info: My best priced quote could only be matched, a £50 lower excess was offered. I was hoping for better, again maybe i'm fussy ?

You did agree to cover at no extra cost some new alloys should I purchase them at a later date (Rota Torques) and yes I have taken out a policy with yourself's. Hoping I will not regret this decision...
 
Just a quick apology for those who tried our New Business team on Monday but didn't get through.

We were absolutely manic - good for business - but it didn't help those who couldn't get a quote.
(Claims & Customer Service depts were unaffected).

We are back to normal now so please ring us if you're car/home/car breakdown insurance is due in July.
 
What's going on with your telephone numbers listed in this thread. They are unavailable or have been changed to a number that is unavailable?

I know I can contact you via email, but I would prefer to speak to someone.

Thanks.

Hi
They are 0800 917 2274 or 01424 200477.
 
This insurance scheme is proving very popular which is great but I often get asked to do quotes myself.

Regarding this, could I ask you to either use the email quote facility found on this forum or ring the office please on 0800 917 2274 or 01424 200477 if calling from a mobile – Mon-Fri 9am till 5pm, Sat 9am till noon.
It’s just that I don’t actually do the quotes, as I spend a lot of my time travelling the country on business and work from home also.
We have a specialist team who should be able to help you based on the details you’ve stated.

Also, please don't forget the car breakdown cover at £54.50 for full UK cover – please see http://www.ckinsurance.co.uk/docs/ChrisKnottBreakdown.pdf, online travel insurance (instant quotes) - http://www.ckinsurance.co.uk/travel and home insurance.

Thanks.
 
Here we go! The August rush!
August is always a busy month so if you're insurance renewal (for car, home, breakdown or travel!) is due, please feel free to ring us for a quote on our scheme. 0800 917 2274 or 01424 200477 and please quote the forum reference number found in my signature.
 
I am thinking of getting a car soon. but it will probably be insured in my mothers name and me as second (i will be working and drive only on weekends) she has 4 years no claims will it work (you said i needed to have 1 NCB to be under this one?)

If you are the main driver overall then we couldn't do it as it's called fronting.
If she is the main user and has NCB spare to use on it, ie. not using it on any other policy, then should be OK.
 
Well I just signed up for this year. They did me a cracking offer including insuring my mods, and I would have been silly not to accept it. I had the pleasure in dealing with a lady called Kim, and she was very helpful. Well worth giving them a call if anyone else's policy is due.
 
What a complete waste of space these guys are. Not only did they fail to give me a better quote than the other club insurer last year but they sent me a letter inviting me to ring them for a quote as i approach renewal this month only to be told that unless your OVER 30 then they will NOT insure you on a type R of any forum. What a joke i thought the days of being told we don't insure your age group were long gone when i passed 25 4 years ago.

But considering your attitude I don't blame them for not wanting to insure you.

Well they wont be insuring anyone under 30 from about 2 weeks ago according to the guy i spoke to being told it was their underwritters had tightened up a lot. They were happy to insure me at 27 when i was insured with them the first time around.

I fail to see how my "attitude" has any bearing upon this. I was simply stating that in my opinion enforcing conditions which are largely unworkable (I am sure there was a poll on here showing most type R owners, be that Integras, civics or accords, were under 25) is laughable.

That is no fault of the broker though. :idea:
 
I just thought I’d try and explain a little more about the insurer’s decision to amend the criteria for our insurance scheme. Please believe me when I say that we would love to insure everybody and I’ve enjoyed reading people’s feedback when they talk of our prices, customer service, claims handling, etc. However, the insurers have been hit hard this year and when trying to find out why, they have discovered that, in general, there are certain elements which are causing the problems. Hence the reason to only accept modifications with cosmetic changes and modded bhp increases of no more than 20bhp.

Also people must have at least 1 year's NCB – no introductory discounts are allowed, no more than 1 SP/PC/PL conviction offence per driver and minimum premiums are £250 for Comprehensive & £200 for TPFT cover.

It seems that people outside of this criteria are losing money big-time for the insurers though of course this is a generalisation as they understand not everyone claims in these ‘areas’. It’s just that once bitten, twice shy.

It only affects new customers btw.

May I reiterate that it’s not us who have made this decision but the insurers. Let me point you to this article which tends to sum up the market at the moment - http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/Bu..._Months,_Consumer_Intelligence_Research_Finds
 
Well atleast I can still phone next time round :D was getting rather concerned with people saying over 30 but atleast that's not true to someone who meets the criteria stated by tim
