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.
It is well-recognised and
accepted by the industry that womens car insurance,
because it is
associated with a lower insurance risk, should and can be made
available at a more competitive price than the cover offered to male
drivers.
Many companies target their products directly at women and this website
has provided links to the leading womens car insurance providers over
the years. However, because they were not attracting business we
dropped them. All
that remains is Yes Insurance which, although a general car insurance
provider aims to provide low cost cover for women over
25.
It is worth bearing in mind, indeed, that targeting products purely at
women is simply a marketing ploy and low cost womens car insurance can
be obtained from any leading UK car insurer or via a price comparison
system. You can use our links at the top to access these.
Indeed, the fact that we dropped many leading womens car insurance
brands as they were not selling well here would suggest that some of
the womens car insurance providers do not provide the best deals. So,
for anyone looking for womens car insurance, it still pays to shop
around, eg by using a price comparison service.
While price comparison sites can generate cheap womens car insurance
quotes, for those looking for a more comprehensive level of cover on
their policy, it can be a good idea to go to a leading brand direct.
For example, M&S is by far the most popular
direct car insurance provider featured on this site, and we feature
most of the big name brands here (see link above).
If you do decide to use Yes Insurance for womens car insurance,
something that's worth considering if you're over 25, you should be
able to get cover as they havean impresive panel of insurance companies.
If you opt for a price comparison service to get womens car insurance,
we advise you to be cautious about the level of cover you accept.
Fisrtly, you need to check out the policy details, via other resources
than the price comparison system, if necessary. Secondly, you need to
be sure that if you go for the cheapest womens car insurance quote that
you would be satisfied with this level of cover if you need to make a
claim.
In our view, while we recognise the merits and convenience of price
comparison services, we also believe that some people are cavalier in
their use of them. Price is only one consideration in making a womens
car insurance choice. The first link on this page provides access to
our
popular price comparison system. Other well-known services are also
included below.
That said, don't be afraid to go direct. Many people do return to tried
and tested companies after using a price comparison service previously.
