yes, because that question belongs in the 'banking & insurance & pensions' forum!

think it would be better suited to the 'motors' forum

your previous insurer MUST give you a quotation for basic TP cover, butto be honest they'll probably give you FT & COMP as well.

Depending on the conviction and circumstances, there will be a loading, the question is - how much.

It can be up to 200% of the basic premium, but should reduce each year until gone

i had my insurance down to 530 and 4-5 yrs no claims,so you think 530+200%loading=1590 id be happy if i get that price.

I disagree.

Yes, quinn direct insured me. They gave me a 100% loading (i.e. double normal premiums). I didn't have a no claims discount as I hadn't been insured in 2 years.

That was before they went down the toilet. Their basic premiums are a lot higher now and I don't know if they're actively discouraging people from taking out policies now.
