A friend of mine was with FBD for years, changed to liberty last week. They were 20% cheaper as long as they added a named driver.

Renewed with axa. They dropped 25% off the quote on the renewal letter!

insure my van.ie is hard to beat for com insurance

Aviva are very competitive.

25% discount on one policy if you've two or more household cars with them. Not to be sniffed at.

They are also v good if you have to claim, which we rarely think about.

rs8

fbd

reilig

123.ie here.

Any quote I get from them I riing them up and tell them taht I can get it 25% cheaper with another company. They'll usually match my bluff. No other insurance company can come near them for price. For lowest price ensure that you are putting a good named driver on it (ie. over 25 and preferably female) and that you have the correct value on it.

Rang Aviva and they were €1,200 :eek:

€420 fully comp with wife and 25yo au-pair as named drivers. That includes class 2 which not all insurers do. No one else has come close to matching that!

It's gas she's falling for a lad at the moment and it's funny to watch as an observer. Sends a shiver down my spine thinking about when my 4yo girl gets to that stage :eek:

Was with 123, went to renew one car last november and the renewable price was almost double! Needless to say we shopped around and got it with chill for slightly higher than last year. The killing part is both policies are rsa

You must like ringing India so. Aviva are not competitive and a nightmare to deal with. Zurich are good and now do farm. Fbd ok but pricey.

123 are grand when they are getting your money, but when any issues arise they are an unhelpful shower of .......

FBD are competitive again, didn't have any car with them for nearly 10 years. Now have 3 out of 4 family cars, they were the lowest with renewal quotes

Reggie.

I just go to campion insurance in town. They are a broker and the girl that works there is very good as she always gets A good renewal quote every year

lefthooker

IFA are affiliated with FBD. ICMSA with Campion. I'm affiliated to both. Time to play one against the other.

screcrow

Zurich were €90 more than fbd for the car and €300 cheaper for the farm&house

Muckit

I think there's no two ways about it. You have to shop around. Everyone has a different set of circumstances. age, car type, years driving, no claims bonus, job type etc etc...

If you're a woman in Ireland looking for cheap car insurance, then I would say <snip> would be your best chance!

I’m public service and I’ve never saw any ads or correspondence to staff from them? Are they much cheaper?

garrettod

I thought that Cornmarket only did life cover, health cover, pensions and investments - and yes, they do target the civil service and semi state staff (although in not sure if the are actually any more competent, or competitive, tbh)

garrettod

BTW - unusual as it may sound, give Supervalu a try - they've been quite competitive on quotes and also throw in some Supervalu reward points and vouchers, which can make the offer even better.

FBD offer a discount if you are an ifa member.

You get an even better deal if you call.

Anto_Meath

I took the farm and car insurance from FBD about 4 years ago, last year the local rep hounded me to allow them quote. So I said fair enough. He was embarrassed when I showed him how much more expensive FBD were compared to what I could get with A A on the farm insurance & One Direct on the car and that was him doing the best deal he could for me.

Do you get public liability on farm insurance with the AA?

Anto_Meath

Sorry I have the farm insured with AXA.

Bass Reeves

It's immaterial who is good. You have to price around all insurance every year. As well different companies target different sectors, age groups etc

Know a lad that is with Just for Women. No insurance company can discriminate against you on gender.

Nobody can do your footwork for you.
