I insure my Transit with Privilege. Got my renewal through - they wanted £347 fully comp for me and the wife on the policy. The wife had a bit of a bump in Sainsburys car park a few weeks back so I knew it would go up. I thought if it went up by a lot then I'd just take her off the policy as she really never drives it anyway.
So I called Privilege to tell them. They said that it'd now cost £390. Well I said you might as well take her off the policy then. Ok they said....... that's now £397 !!!!
It turns out that I was getting a discount for having her on the policy. Apparently there's less risk of an accident when your spouse is listed on the policy. Even when they've just had a prang! Seems blurdy daft to me.
