Motor Insurance Companies at the Car Insurance SupermarketThe motor insurance companies in the UK compete in a ferociously competitive market. Any companies that do not compete favourably on price will quickly lose customers given the ease with which thousands of car insurance quotes can be checked via any one of a growing number of price comparison services.This evolution of the UK motorist's favourite means of finding low cost motor insurance companies, namely the move to the current widespread use of price comparison sites by the majority of people, has led motor insurance companies to look carefully at how they attract new business and maintain current customers. In many cases, motor insurance companies have been forced to reconsider what they can reasonably continue to include in their policies if they are to compete with the low cost insurers on price comparison sites. As a result, there has been a shift towards the cheap and cheerful end of the spectrum due to these shifting market forces. Direct Line and some other motor insurance companies have decided not to work with price comparison sites. They say that by cutting out the middle man they can pass savings onto the consumer. The real reason for this decision, however, and it's a laudable one, is to avoid going down the road of competing only on price at the expense of limiting the cover and then failing to offer a quality insurance product. This reality is not lost to numerous consumers. That is why Direct line insures more UK drivers than any other motor insurance companies. Quality matters to a significant number of people. Why then are price comparison sites so popular when they are good at finding low cost quotes from loads of motor insurance companies but there is no built-in quality control given that not all policies are the same and most price comparison sites do not make it easy to compare policy features? It seems to be that the UK consumer's love of a bargain and the ease with which such bargains can be identified and purchased keep price comparison services ever popular. Perhaps the fact that many do get away with buying an inferior product if they don't need to claim propels this risky buying behaviour. We believe that too many people disregard this quality problem that is central to selecting the cheapest motor insurance companies from price comparison sites and that sooner or later this will lead to problems when a claim is made. We would advise you to check the cover before purchase and have the confidence to discard the cheapest motor insurance companies where their cover does not meet with your minimum requirements. |
