Chris`I Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 They just quoted me £1k with a £3k excess. I think it needs some work Quote
Ekona Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Just run mine through, about what I expected from the usual suspects. £650, but £1000 if you pay by instalments. Utterly insane, who on earth would pay by that??!! You'd chuck it on a credit card and pay it off over a couple of months if you couldn't do it in one go, it would still work out much cheaper. Quote
Adrian@TORQEN Posted September 14, 2012 Author Posted September 14, 2012 I guess it hasn't been sort of publicly launched, it's a quiet launch, still testing and adding underwriters/brokers to it. We shall see, it just amazes me how Google becomes THE INTERNET, taking on all possible services. We will see how this will affect GoCompare, Comparethemarket and the likes. Quote
Ewan27 Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 I paid over £1500 for my insurance! Quote
ThriftyFifty Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Even better... NISSAN 350Z GT COUPE 3499cc, 2 door, 2003 - 2007, Petrol, Manual Not the right vehicle? We've found your vehicle and think it: Is right-hand drive Is a saloon Has 5 seats Is not imported Has Thatcham-approved category 1 alarm and immobiliser I suppose you could fit 3 in the boot...

Chris`I Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 It got my car specs right at least, right down to it being an auto and a black edition. No doubt Google will make it work, and it will take over from GoCompare. But they have to learn that even if they deliver products using Agile methodologies and in "Beta" it should at least work and only have some bugs. You shouldnt soft launch a product that clearly doesnt work, but being Google, people say - hey its ok - they can fix it later. If I did that at work, you'd all be going ape-@*!# if it didnt quite work Quote
smudgedon Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 Ranges from 4k to 17k Glad I'm paying 813!!! Quote
Ian Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 To insure the Skyline I had 3 quotes. 2 for £6100 & 1 for £10100 Think I'll stick with Sky Quote
Ekona Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 I wouldn't worry too much about it giving you the best price for anything, more whether it gives representative quotes compared to Gocomparethemoneysupermeerkat. If it does, then they're onto a winner. If not, then it's useless. Quote

Very true, but most insurance companies charge 5% or 10% more if you use a credit card, cheapest way would be to use debit card to avoid fees, but obviously then you need the full amount in the bank.
