Car Insurance for Women at Car Insurance Supermarket
Note:
As of 21 Dec 2012, gender cannot contribute to premium calculations.
If you
want to buy women's car insurance right now, we would
recommend going to our article on women's
car insurance in our
'Buyers Guide' section that offers
the most useful advice on this.
To get the best car insurance
for women quotes in the UK, one approach is to go direct to a car
insurance for women insurer. Several such companies exist but we have
dropped all our car insurance for women providers owing to their poor
performance here.
An alternative approach - that favoured by users of this site - is to
use a price comparison system or any general car
insurance company for car insurance for women. Very often their prices
are better than the women driver specialists, particularly where
multiple quote comparisons are provided by an aggregator service - the
likely cause of the demise of our women-only car insurance providers.
It should be remembered that car insurance for women products, although
sold on the basis that women, by being a lower insurance risk, should
get cheaper quotes, are largely a marketing device. At the end of the
day, all insurers are competing for business and will take account of
gender in premium calculations, regardless of whether their product is
marketed specifically to women or not.
It is partly for the above reason that all of the car insurance for
women
specialists we previously worked with, were dropped here. Other
insurers were offering better value, especially the quote comparison
services that check 1000s of prices.
While the UK insurance industry, especially aggregator services, do a
lot of marketing on the basis that price is everything, clearly the
product you are getting is important too. There's no great wisdom in
buying the cheapest car insurance for women you can identify to only
find when you have an accident that it is woefully inadequate for your
needs and that you are then required to meet significant costs yourself.
The message from this is clear. Disregard the policy you are selecting,
basing your choice only on price, and you will, in most cases, be
selecting very basic car insurance for women cover that may lack some
of the features you would wish for in the event of a crash. Don't take
the risk - find out what you're getting, even if it takes a few minutes
and includes a visit to the insurer's website.
