Use A Comparison Website To Save Money On Your Car Insurance
Have you ever obtained a quote on one of the car insurance comparison sites? Did you manage to save money by using 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 had not previously used a comparison website as I thought it may be some kind 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. I received the renewal papers in the post and the price was very similar as to what I paid in the previous year. In that period I had not submitted a claim but I was actually fairly happy with the price that they had quoted. I also rather liked the company that I was insured with as they do offer an excellent customer service.
Despite this I decided to put my details into one of the comparison websites and to my surprise some of the quotes were cheaper than what I had been offered with my current insurer.
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 been quoted a cheaper price via a car insurance comparison site. 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 simple ways to make money but this definitely was one.
There are numerous other comparison type sites for example ones where they compare loans, and others where that compare home insurance.
There are even sites that offer such things as comparison prices for DVD replication companies; who knows they may even compare “learn to play the guitar” sites in the future!
I will certainly be using this type of service again in the future.
If however the above does not work for you then you could appoint a cost cutting expert to devise a business cost reduction strategy.
Whichever option you take I hope you are successful at saving some cash, let’s face it in this financial climate we could all do with some extra money.
