Have you ever obtained a quote on one of the car insurance comparison sites? How did you find it? Now I am not sure about you but I have just managed to save myself a decent amount of money after using a comparison site.
I must admit that I was slightly dubious about using the comparison websites as I believed that they were just some sort of scam. I thought in this way as I believed that they were being paid by the insurance companies to promote their quotes etc.
Anyway back to how I managed to save myself the cash. The annual car renewal papers arrived in the post and the price was some what similar as to what I had paid last year. In that period I had not submitted a claim but I was actually fairly happy with the price that they had quoted. The company also offered excellent customer service.
Even though I was happy with the quote I still decided to put my relevant details into one of the comparison sites.
Instead of just taking up one of these quotes I decided to contact my current insurer and stated the following:
“I have been insured with your company for the last three years and would like to stay with you. I have however managed to obtain a cheaper quote on the internet at one of the comparison websites. Are you able to match their price?”
To my surprise the company agreed and I felt like I had won a major victory. I now decided to treat myself to a pizza!
People have told me that there are no easy ways to make money but this definitely was one.
There are numerous other comparison type sites for example ones where they compare loans, I have heard that these are especially useful for people who need a no credit check loan.
There are even sites that offer such things as comparison prices for DVD replication companies.
I will certainly be using this type of service again in the future.
