Well, after being a very happy T350c owner for 3 years, and also a happy A-plan customer for the entire time I can now safely say that A-plan will definitely not be getting my business this year!

My renewal has jumped from £570 that I paid this year to a whopping £1400 for this year, despite no changes whatsoever to my policy!!! Apparently Groupama have changed their offering now which when coupled with the regrouping of all cars results in a quote that is 2.5 times more expensive!

By the way I am 29 with 8 years no claims, no accidents and only 1 SP30 from 2006. The car is garaged and limited to 5000 miles/yr.

How on earth can insurance companies get away with this? On my daily runaround worth £1500 Admiral originally wanted £1000 for my renewal (£600 last year) but thankfully I managed to tweak a few things and get covered for £520 which I was reasonably happy with.

Same here, I moved on from A-Plan in September due to a crazy premium increase (and another issue I wont go into on a public forum). Mrs MoJo will be following suit in December.

Now a happy Mannings customer.

Looks like thats the way they A-plan are heading then... Their customer service hasnt been that great of late either, and they now sometimes come across a bit like Adrian Flux (not a good thing btw)

Hopefully Mannings will come back with something reasonable and I can join you guys with the switch although I have also just been told that my postcode has been reclassified as a much higher risk recently which is adding a signifant loading onto the premium.

Most, but possibly not all!! wobble

Same for me, been with A-plan for 5 yrs....£590, got it down to £445 with a bit of haggling biggrin 6k miles.

Mannings down to £390 but limited to 5k miles, £460 for 6k so will stick with A-plan I expect.....

How's things Dave, hope your op goes ok

To be fair it might not be A-Plans fault entirely as it seems like my postcode has been recently reclassified from Group C to Group F (the highest) in the insurance companies risk database.

So despite living in a nice area of North Leeds it is the same risk category as London and hence the increase from £500 to £1400 and there is nothing I can do about it.

What really takes the £!$$ though is that I even sugested fitting a tracker to reduce the risk and therefore the premium but was just told it would not affect it at all. So even by reducing the risk they will not reduce the premium.

I now officially hate insurance companies and no wonder there are so many uninsured drivers around when the penalty if caught uninsured is a £200 fine and 6 points. This would mean I would save £1800 a year by not insuring my two cars (if caught). £2000 a year if not caught!!!

Thats a bit worrying. My policy with A-plan is up on the 2nd December, paid £480 last year for 8k a year in a PE19 postcode. Dreading to think what it will be at renewal, plan B will be MSM.

Looks like it might not be an A-Plan thing... tried Mannings as well and they are also wanting more than £1200 because of the postcode re-classification.

Not happy!

Another Classic Line customer here - I did go through A1 though. It's backed off to Brit Insurance I believe.

I am with A plan at the moment with the TVR and was with them for the MX5 also. but they wanted £250 more than an on line quote when the MX came up for renewal, they said that they could not match this and the other insurers must be wrong. scratchchin

So went with e-sure.

Be interesting to see what they quote for the Cerb in January.

I thought it might be useful to paste the most reent list of how car insurance companies rate post code areas across the UK

[Mods - I appreciate this is a very long list so feel free to remove if necessary and just leave the web-link at the bottom]

They are listed on a scale A-F.
A = Good Post code/Low Risk
F = Bad Post code/High Risk
  • = Motorbikes need to be locked in a secure garage
Refer = You need to speak to the car insurance company

I had the same issue with A-plan, £750 to renue this year. Went with Mannings £259 for the same policy!!!
My situation was almost identical to the penny!
I too am a happy Mannings customer now.

There's a really bad echo in Pistonheads at the moment.

Something to do with car insurance prices going up, although I can't quite hear it clear enough.

Can there be a sticky explaining the reasons for this so I don't end up slitting my wrists the next time someone else posts how their insurance has gone up and that insurance companies should be burnt to the ground..........
