Yet another insurance rant

[Ki3r]

I'm with a company that does multi-car insurance. They are the sister company that is similar to Rhino.

I currently pay £640 fully comp for my car. My step dad will be paying around £50 for the couple of months he is with them.

I need to get business insurance, purely to claim my petrol money for my second 'job'.

I phoned them up, expecting to pay a admin fee and maybe a little bit more. They wanted to charge me just under £100 for it (policy ends in September).

I decide to get a new quote, phone them up and ask for a quote with business insurance (£709) and without business insurance (£704), yes £5 difference. Yet when I try and add it to my current policy, they want to charge me just under £100. Yes I'll have to pay an admin fee, which I have no problems with (well, to a degree).

It gets better though. Half way though, they see that my main job is a delivery driver for Tesco. Turns out they can't give me business use because of that. Despite the fact I use the works van, and I only need the business use for my second 'job'.

The upside is, having had a really long moan on the phone to whoever would listen, I finally got it for £17.50, just the admin charge.

I pretty crapy rant as no swearing, so , fk, tt, bks, st.
