    Hi guys,


    So I received my renewal with liberty a week ago. It came at 760.44 for the whole year. Last year I paid almost 1k.


    Thing is, that I went to Liberty's website to get a quote and got 472.84 for the whole year with the exact same details.

    Now I am 24, 1 year no claims bonus and 1 year's learner permit.

    The bike is a SV 650 restricted.


    Didn't ring Liberty so far, but I will start ringing around next week.


    Any advice on how should I proceed?


    Thanks

    What a price difference. How about any of the other bike insurers. Aon, Aviva, Hibernian, Carol Nash. Was going to say Quinn direct but they became liberty right.

    And ALWAYS hardball with insurance bastards.. I was quoted €472 fully comp from Adelaide Insurance (fully comp) that was up over €100 from last year so I went online and the blower ~ got back to the pricks and in less than two minutes I hate it for €235 fully comp.

    Liberty are cnuts to deal with on the phone. Make sure the bike they are quoting you for is the one you are riding.

    I've an FZS600 they tried quoting for an FZR600R That little R at the end was costing me over 200 euro and the cnut on the phone insisted they were in the same category.... they aren't.

    I told them about my Level 2 assessment and they kept trying to dodge adding it even after I had sent it to them, had to e-mail them to sort it more than once.

    Overall, they're sh1t to deal with, I'll be 25 next year, so if I'm still in country I'm gonna go for any other insurer given I should have a fair load off my insurance being in the next age bracket. And likely with a full licence.
