Insurance providers I may have overlooked

Post by SilentBob »

Hi,
Currently going through the fun of renewing my insurance...
was previously with Famous in W.A., but shopped around with a few and found Unique in melbourne to be a few hundred cheaper(and significantly cheaper on excess side)

just hoping for any places i may have forgotten besides the usual young and cool etc that may be cheaper also


Thanks

I use unique in box hill melb - they were the cheapest i could find. Just make sure your alarm / immob is up to scratch otherwise you wont get coverage..

One thing I found weird about Unique is that they don't insure people who use multi-carports at home.

But yeah Euro is right they ask for 3 points immobilizations for alarms, & they have to be Australia standard. So if you got one of those paging alarms/engine start type (e.g. Boomerang) then you can forget it. Yes they do check your car alarm (randomly) & ask for proof of professional installation.
