Insurance - Do you lose NCB?

[Eddie.]

I can quite believe it actually! M postcode is the bane of my life

For what it is worth, nothing in the insurance industry makes me laugh my self to tears.

Oh c'mon Ollie. We once had a claim where someone had managed to set fire to a Smart Car in a petrol station by putting fuel in the heater vents. Make of that what you will.

But yeah, when I was in sales nothing ever made me 'laugh myself to tears' when taking details/giving quotes. Other than some of the clients ideas' of the phonetic alphabet. Q for Cucumber, anyone?

Even when some 18 yr old actually forks over the 3k to drive their 2k french hatch? I'd have to probably put the phone on mute for a second while I composed myself.

"oi, steve... STEVE! He's only gone and done it! I KNOW! WTF yeah"

Genuine lollers!

The 17 year old in Manchester who insured his NA starlet with us for a screen rate of £4500 caused a slight snigger I must admit, believe it or not, that was by far the best price he'd been offered.

Surely that's just a 'go away' price?

Yes indeed, it was the 'top screen rate' which is usually about as competitive as a poke in the eye.

I am just asking the question - got caught the other day and the maximum penalty is 28day ban....

as per previous post...

98mph in a 70mph limit (conditions were near perfect, not wreckless/dangerous/careless - police words not mine)
Caught previously doing 65mph in a 50mph limit (£60 + 3pts)

Fully prepared to accept what punishment i get...

I just dont want to lose my 6 years NCB i have built up...

24 male
197 Cup
AB postcode
Driving for 7 years...

insurance is currently circa £550pa (with 3 pts)

Quoted £1300ish pa with 9pts...

I struggle to find insurance if i got banned for any length of time

Ah well.... my own fault i guess!!
