How To Obtain A Cheaper Buildings And Contents Insurance Quote

Have you ever used an insurance comparison website? Now I am unsure, of course, as to how you will have answered this question but I would guess that the majority of people would have said yes. I absolutely love them. Why do I think this? Because I have managed to save a lot of money by using these types of sites over the last couple of years. In this article I will be describing about the way in which I use them.

Just before I continue I would like to make it clear that I am not an insurance salesman or a financial adviser. I actually offer a DVD duplication service in the UK, I am also involved in a company that sells composite doors and I offer Comet Voucher Codes on a part-time basis .

I am going to write about a recent example of when I managed to save seventy pounds on my home insurance. At the beginning of June I received the renewal quote for the home insurance. The premium that they had quoted was a little higher than what I had paid last year, despite the fact that I had not made a claim.

I knew what I was going to do, in any case, whatever the premium had shown; I was going to put in my relevant details into one or two of the insurance comparison websites. I duly did this and low and behold there were three companies who were able to beat my renewal premium. The best quote was in fact £60 cheaper for the same cover.

This was not exactly a surprise to me as I have had similar successes on numerous previous occasions. Did I complete the application form for this lower premium? No. Why not? Well I wanted to save even more money and therefore decided to contact my current insurer to see of they could offer me an even cheaper price! I phoned them and said:

“I have received your home insurance renewal quote but have managed to obtain a better quote by using one of those comparison sites. It was seventy pounds lower (a small lie) than what you were quoting. I am phoning you as I would rather keep the insurance with your company as I have been very impressed with the level of customer service that I have received. Would you be able to match or beat their quote?”

Guess what? They did match it – how cool is that? I was rather impressed with myself, the result and of course the comparison website.

Now I have decided to instruct a firm of cost reduction specialists in a quest to save even more money.
