Hi teams, (UK only ! others can ignore).
I am negotiating with insurers for renewal of my insurance.
All the quotes are for 1,000,000 Liability.
I believe there is some suggestion that Europe (the dreaded EU) will be
upping the requirement to 1,500,000 from April.
Does anyone know anything about this ?
If I start out at 1M and the insurers can justifiably charge extra in April
they will have carte blanche to charge whatever they like with no argument.
A recipe for getting overcharged !
One insurer has said that I am covered for 1M and that the next stage for
cover is 2M for an extra 105. When I suggested that I only needed 0.5M
extra, therefore for 52.50, the broker claimed that the underwriter sets
the rules and the stages !
These brokers are quick to blame others for these things, but when you start
to tell them that other brokers are more competitive they often reduce the
premiums - claiming a mistake was made ! The mistakes are always in their
favour !
Unless anyone knows different !
