Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated.You might need to phone a few companies directly, or use a broker, it's a non standard ask.
My wife was in similar situation a few years ago, and at the time An Post (AIG) was the cheapest as they gave largest discount for named driver experience. Her 2nd year was AXA arranged through a broker, going direct we got nowhere.
If you've switched insurer yourself a lot, it can be a pain getting all the letters showing named driving experience from each insurer.
Because she has only ever been a named driver and this is the first time (?) that she's looking for insurance in her own name?My wife has been a named driver for over 10 years and it is proving very difficult to get a quote online (for a 2nd car where she will be main driver) despite no accidents, claims, penalty points etc in the last 10yrs + beyond. Can anyone shed some light as to why this is?
Does a history of being a named driver work against someone though?Because she has only ever been a named driver and this is the first time (?) that she's looking for insurance in her own name?
No and no.Does a history of being a named driver work against someone though?
I mean would it be easier if she was looking for first-time insurance as a woman in mid-40s?
The hint is the word "online". The online quotes only work for standard conditions.I find it very difficult to believe that she can't get any quote.
Ah, fair point. Thanks.The hint is the word "online". The online quotes only work for standard conditions.
Anything non standard will require a phone call.
To echo this, my wife's numbers (same car throughout). She's currently paying the minimum premium with AvivaExpect initial year to be €700 - €800 or thereabouts, then falling rapidly.
