Well according to Admiral, everybody.
Did an online quote, it was pretty competitive, although not enough to change.
Thought I'd read the small print. It was for 10 months.
If I'd wanted 12 months instead I should have ticked a box buried away where I'm not supposed to find it.
Heavens sake, what happened to proper competition rather than underhand ways to get to the top of the table? They can feck off forever as far as I'm concerned.

And I had my car serviced today. That included several pounds for squeezing 100ml of screenwash in, and £6.75 +VAT for changing the battery in my keyfob, something I'd already done myself recently for £1 thankyou very much. Its on the service list sir. yea right.

It's a trick that allows you to build your no claims bonus quicker...some people like it.

oh it's fairly normal with bikes, so I understand, you still pay for 12 months and that's what the policy says, but you have to put your bike away for 3-4 months each year, or so I'm told : smt102
