I had a silly price from Towergate for renewal earlier in the year. I went on a comparison site and Towergate was showing there for nearly half what they were quoting for renewal. I left it for a couple of days and out of the blue I had a call from Towergate new business asking if I was interested in the online quote! After some haggling they agreed to my renewal for slightly less than I was paying the previous year and a bit lower than the online quote. This was the first time this has happened in three years with Towergate but I know next year to do some test quote requests to get the insurers interested.

We have been with Towergate for a couple of years and no claims yet their annual renewal have increased by a minimum of £150 a year. We are up for renewal in November so if a hefty increase again we will be looking around.
Myinsurance and also Ripe insurance seem to be getting good reviews. The problem is that until you make a claim you do not know how good the insurance company really is.

hi,dont think you will beat the caravan and motorhome insurance,i put a claim in a few years ago for hailstone damage to van,they inspected van within two days,decided it was a right off and claim settled and money paid into my account within two weeks,you never know how good your insurance company is until you put in claim.
