Insurance Question! (DOC)

Sugar Free · 30 May 2009 at 16:44

Anyone know if there are any insurers out there that insure drivers under 25 and allow them to drive any other car (or most other cars)?

Quinn Direct have just given me a renewal of £500 but Direct Line and Curchill were both in the £400s but they don't insure under 25s with DOC.

Bell

Edit: I think.. It is Bell isn't it?

OllyM · 30 May 2009 at 16:52

Bell, that's about the only one.

Sugar Free · 30 May 2009 at 16:59

Thanks for the replies. Bell wanted an extra £150 for the privilege so I think I'll stick with Quinn.

Thomas. PLease. · 30 May 2009 at 17:06

£150! they wanted £29 off me.

Edit:

Oh my bad they seem to have changed that. Thats a bit cheeky.

OllyM · 30 May 2009 at 17:45

They charge £150 for DOC cover now?!

Actually, jesus, they do :eek:

Drive other car (third party only)
£149.99

was only 40 quid when i took out my bell policy, i didnt take it and was planning to phone up and stick it on when i need it. not at 150 quid though.

Wow I only bought my policy just over a week ago and it was £30 or so then :eek:

Glad I got in when I did. I'll have to make the most of it because I won't be paying that much extra for it next year

OllyM · 30 May 2009 at 18:30

They keep changing the price, no doubt it'll be lower by the time you renew. Nobody will tick it at £149.99!

Hatter The Mad · 30 May 2009 at 18:37

Quinn do (even on their Third party policy). I'm 22, had my license for about a year and can drive any other car as long as it is not a 4x4, a 2 seater sports car and has an engine < 3.0l

Bell charge me £21.95 for DOC, just done another online quote and its the same. If you put your job as mechanic it goes up to some ridiculous figure in the thousands.

racerboy59 · 30 May 2009 at 19:38

I only paid £40 with Bell last november, and i was 18 back then. Seems like I wont be taking that option next renewal.

Skeeter · 30 May 2009 at 19:40

Holy jebus thats insane! best £40 I ever spent it looks like.

Thomas. PLease. · 30 May 2009 at 19:40

Thats lol, if you put motor mechanic it goes up to £1950 :eek:

It must be a different rate for different jobs.

I just checked again and I've got a policy saved which i will be buying soon and it has doc ticked for £27 :cool:

[TW]Fox · 30 May 2009 at 19:43

They've obviously had a lot of people abusing it.

Acolyte · 30 May 2009 at 19:49

Paid £39.99 for my Bell DOC about 2 weeks ago

RoysonBobson · 30 May 2009 at 21:11

Choosing student gives DOC as +£150 - perhaps that what some of us are selecting to get that figure?

Sugar Free · 30 May 2009 at 21:22

Yeah, what are these occupations that give the low £20-£40 values?

Trifid · 30 May 2009 at 21:23

I put myself down as a computer Analyst (closest to my job title) and it was £40 for me 6 weeks ago.

needmorespeed · 31 May 2009 at 00:03

I'm a delivery driver and Bell want £2k for DOC cover
