How to get a great car insurance deal in 2016

Post by ChrisKnottIns » Mon Jan 18, 2016 3:57 pm

How to get a great car insurance deal in 2016...

Hi,

It's always good to know if there are special deals to be had. Maybe deals that are not available to Joe Public. The Chris Knott Insurance scheme is one such deal that rewards car enthusiasts with better car insurance rates just for having joined up with this club/forum.

OK, so what's the deal? What makes it different to all the other car insurance providers?

Well, the insurers on our panel believe that you'll be a better risk than the average driver. So they'll allow us to do all we can (within set criteria) to attract you, including offering very competitive rates. Does it work? You bet it does!...

Today, I was looking at the figures for last month and was really pleased to see that our overall quote acceptance rate was 48%. That means we were the best for 48% of the people who called us. That's astonishingly good.

I dug further and found that (again in December) we retained 81% of clients at their renewal so it's not a case that we hook you in with a cheap rate and then hike it later.

Of course, price isn't everything but it's a major factor in choosing the next insurer for your pride and joy. Where we can we'll offer you a quote that's better than anything else you can find out there and that may involve you telling us what your best alternative is. As I said, the insurers on our panel will often be flexible on their price to win you (and keep you).

In addition to great rates we also reward the clubs that we work with. Where they're interested, we pay commission for each policy sold to a member and we pay again at each renewal. This helps to cover the running costs of the club/forum. Last year we paid over £92k in commission to clubs/forums to say thank you for working with us to encourage members to at least try us for a quote.

Will you try us and see how much you can save with the Chris Knott Car Club Insurance scheme? Check out the testimonials below from other happy car club members. Did I mention that we're mod-friendly too?

QUOTELINE: 0800 917 2274

We're working hard to save you money and give something back to the club/forum when we do. So please pick up the phone when your renewal falls due and request your special 'club member' quote.

best,
Nick

PS. Don't forget that we also offer you multi-buy discounts, loyalty rewards and a 'recommend a friend' scheme. We're offering you and the car enthusiast community more than the average insurance provider will. Please call us on 0800 917 2274 for your no-obligation quotation.





************************
Recent Testimonials - there are alot of them so I don't expect you to read them all but you'll get the idea:

"Well after seemingly endless calls to various companies (many I've used in recent years but some new) to get the V70R back on the road, it looks like I've got a deal!... Modern policies were sky high, as I've just turned 25… and as I'm not going to use it as my every day car, I can't use my 6 years NCB on quotes. Just got off the phone with Kim at Chris Knott, and they're covering me for £445 on a modern policy (so it can earn its own NCB) fully comp. Very helpful, and VOC get a few quid out of the deal as well!" Warninglight, Volvo Owners Club

"Just renewed my 4.2 A8 with you. Good price, good sales rep (Ian)." alanyork, Audi-Sport forum

“Another "quote me happy" customer. Easily the most competitive this year. You were not able to cover me last year, due to only 2 months experience with a RWD car, but thankful I gave you a call this year. Thanks again to Kim who was very professional and took me through everything in the right amount of detail.” James Durbin, Z4 Forum

"Great quote & service from Rebecca @Chris_Knott_Ins - will be back with the other 2 cars for you to quote next month." Jason Adderley, Twitter

“Better Rates. Time for my first renewal since acquiring my 2012 S Class so compared my old insurers quotes with compare the market and found a cheaper price. Then tried Chris Knott who both matched the best quote and offered me an extra £20 off so I have accepted it.” Nicholas15, Mercedes-Benz Owners Forum

“I found CK well priced and very clued up on mods, would recommend.” mark-in-stoke, GT86 Owners Club

“Not only were the team helpful when I came to renew my insurance, over £200 less than my previous insurance company who I’ve been with for many years, but even when closed they managed to help me on Boxing Day by using their Facebook messaging service. I would highly recommend these guys and have several friends who have taken out policies.” Mathew Watson, Facebook

“Not often I'm this impressed but the service I received today from Ian at Chris Knott was second to none. Not only were they open this morning (2nd Jan) but the quote was very competitive, fast, and the transaction went through immediately trouble free. I was able to tax the new convertible online within minutes of coming off the phone to Ian. Really impressed, Thanks.” Jimmylegs, Celica Club

“Called up again today to inform them of the pending OBX 4-2-1 manifold going on. "No problem, that's the policy updated for you". Cloud 9. Must have been about the 10th call to them to makes changes over the term so far, certainly been 3 in the last 2 months what with the lowering springs etc. No charge again. Thank you.” Lexo, Hyundai Coupe Owners Club

Don't you think it's unfair to offer two different rates for the same car under the same criteria? Why should someone pay more for not being in a 'club'? Don't give me waffle about risk because that's entirely arbitrary.

It is down to risk profiling - those who care about their vehicles and join others on social forums or in clubs do prove (on the whole) to reflect a reduction in risk.

Those who care about their vehicles, yes, I would agree they show a propensity for caring more about their car and how they drive them on the road. You don't need to be in a club or on a social forum to do that.

Let's say there are two identical people with identical cars. Both care about their vehicles a great deal.
A has had their vehicle for n years, but isn't on the forum.
B has had their vehicle for n-1 years, but is on the forum.

How do you justify that? Of course B's premium might be higher to reflect the inferior experience, but you have just given them a discount because they are on a social forum and so are 'less risk', despite the fact that otherwise they are identical?


It's a bit like cats have 4 legs and fur. Dogs have 4 legs and fur. Are all cats dogs or are all dogs cats?

whats that i hear you say on his own in a room and starting an arguement ? Noooooooooo not Donald :lol: they are not saying being in a club makes you a better motorist but it is an indicator a bit like having 4 legs and fur would mean your an animal rather than a Human(although i know this will start an arguement :lol: )

An indicator of what, merc? That they might be a better motorist? :lol: The issue is applying an absolute, blindly, to a variable. Happy to give you the benefit of the doubt to bring your money in, but not the other way around?

Righting one wrong at a time, wurly ;)

It's Trump logic, you know where I'm coming from. (Not saying this is on the same level, btw...)




Merc you're missing the point. I'm not disputing that people on forums tend to think more of their car than those that are not.

OK, so show me how we find those individuals who are not forum members?
