so I've gone over my 5000 miles a year limit on my policy and im going abroad on the bike in a few week so phone up my brokers to tell them to make sure its all legit
go through all the "being on hold" crap for them to tell me that i was only down as having a 3000 limit when i asked for 5000 so i was way way way over ![]() then i got told there will be a charge, so not only did i pay 10-15 quid for the call i then got a charge of 43 quid with 30 odd of it being their admin fee and on top of all that i only have a month left on the policy ![]() he then went on and asked the mileage of the SV, so i asked why and he said so we can know as you didn't tell us last time to which i reply "and you tell me this now?" needless to say i didn't tell them thats them off my Christmas card list ![]() Last edited by Wideboy; 07-05-08 at 03:59 PM. |

Apparently carole nash, on my policy require you to pay the first 250 of any claim if you're over mileage, I didn't tell them mileage at start of policy though.

One month left on the policy?
Wouldn't you be better off going elsewhere and taking a new policy out? |

I'm with Express who used to sponsor (may still do) the suzuki race team, so they offered major discounts on suzuki insurance. They were over £500 cheaper than anyone else! First year, first bike, £350! That's with breakdown, legal, no NCB, i was 21 at the time, i was very impressed with that.
However, everytime i call them to change anything, declaring mods for example, they charge me £25, g1ts! |
