Emails received by the campaign Dear MIJAG, Hows it goin ... I'm 22 and living in south Dublin. Last year I was insured on a 1991 Mazda 323 1.3 litre for 1900 pound. The car was stolen in August and I claimed for it asuming to get a reasonable amount in compensation. Don't think so. I got 700 pound. The next part gets better. I asked for a quote on a 1999 Honda Civic srs 1.4 litre. The quote on the phone was for an extra 78 pound third party f+t and around 350 extra for fully comp. I couldn't renew my policy at the end of its year for financial reasons but assumed the price wouldn't vary much as I was a recent customer with no payment problems. Basically I bought the car, went in to fill out a propasal form and then came the shock. My 1.4 is now classed as a high performance vehicle and my premium is SIX THOUSDAND FIVE HUNERED POUNDS. Sorry but what the *u*k!!!! Angry with little or no explanation I left.... Since then I have got a quote for 2400 through a broker.... Funny thing is the company they were insuring me with says you have to be over 27 in the yellow pages. Basically the insurance industry in this country is a racket and is really pissing me off. Crap thing is , the ones who can change it are probably makin a nice profit from it. Rgds, Another broke careful driver.   Back to emails index
