My car insurance is up at the end of the month and needless to say I'm shopping around to see whats available out there.
My current insurer, AXA, have hiked my insurance by over €100 and I'm not happy to say the least.
I did an online quote a few weeks ago with Hibernian and they came in with a very competitive quote, but when I did it again this week, the cost had risen €200.
The best quote I've got is from FBD and its nearly €150 cheaper than my current policy from AXA with all the same benefits and a add ons.
So needless to say I'm seriously considering this.
When I contacted AXA and informed them about it, the guy started spouting on about discounted weekends away, fuel discounts with Statoil and loads of other crap. I told him that I'm not interested in discounted weekends, Im interested in knowing how they can justify hiking my insurance like that with no reason. He then said he'd see what he could do, came back and offered to knock €20 off the price.
I've no penalty points, 7 years claims free driving, havent changed address or jobs, so I'm kinda stumped.
Are FBD any good or does anyone have any dealings with them?
