Before you get car insurance in the UK, read thisMistake # 1 - Allowing price to be the 'be all and end all'Price comparison sites are designed to help consumers to find the cheapest quotes for their car quickly and easily. They are less good at assisting drivers to compare quotes on the basis of their differing policy features. They are therefore designed to optimally assist those that commit mistake # 1; although some of them, notably Gocompare, do assist with feature comparisons too. The wish to avoid this mistake does not therefore necessarily preclude using one of these services to get car insurance.Mistake # 2 - 'Winging it' in the hope that no claim will be neededThis is a slightly lesser variant of mistake # 1. In this category, the consumer recognises that the type of cover matters when they get car insurance quotes but they remain overly concerned about getting a good deal and therefore accept a less inclusive car insurance policy than they actually need or would want if they have to make a later claim.Mistake # 3 - Believing that comparing loads of quotes is the only way to get a good dealThe UK car insurance market is probably just about the most competitve commercial market of any type anywhere in the world. This is not an exaggeration. It's an effect of the UK, and the City, being leading financial sector players on the world stage, including within the insurance sector.Although it's a huge market - our roads are filled with cars - there are huge numbers of service providers all vying for an increased share of that car insurance market. You don't need to be an economist to understand and accept that if you get car insurance from the biggest providers in this arena that, like-for-like, these providers are going to be very close on price, otherwise they will very quickly loose some of their market dominance. Understanding the above market effect frees the consumer to allow policy features to pay a more important part in their policy selction, rendering it viable, even sensible, to go direct to a leading insurer to get car insurance, especially where certain quality of cover related features are desired in the policy schedule. Mistake # 4 - Not scrutinising the policy adequatelyThis is a particularly common mistake. Go to each insurance company's website if necessary, but don't miss this step out when you get car insurance online. At best, price comparison sites offer summarised policy information only. It pays to buy on the basis of what you will need if you do need to claim. |
