Cheaper Insurance? ($675)
I got emailed a link to an insurance mob I had not heard of before, with enough of a speil to make me interested enough to follow the link...
http://www.ozicare.com.au/
I entered the details for an on-line quote, and I got a pleasant surpise of an $800 premium (for me) on a $500 excess. I upped the excess to the max $1000, and my premium dropped to $675.
That sounds a lot less than what I am paying. I might look into it some more. But it did have choice of repairer, which is important I reckon.
Cheers,
Hymee.

I've already had to use my insurance and was very happy with the outcome including choice of repairer and efficiency.
The Ozicare quote was $1050.
When insuring mine last Nov I tried about 6 sources and Suncorp were cheapest as well as good T&C's.
Never heard of them so I'm not even going to bother getting a quote.
There's enough trouble with getting paid out on claims with the large insurance companies, what do you think it's going to be like with the no-name ones?

I get $1450 with $1050 excess.
But I am paying $1050 for all the mods I have fitted, so it still does not beat that yet:p
Thanks for the link Hymee
