Now they Have Gone to Far
:o
Bear with me folks, I'm pretty upset...
So I get my new insurance policy in the mail today...finally, well after many discussions with my insurance broker before I bought the car.... He clearly explained to me that the cost per annum is split into $295 per month, plus tax and service charges (like 110 bones...no biggie). I budgeted and realized that $295 a month was ok. After all, single, 24, V8 Aurora, you gotta pony up...fine.
Sooooo, today I get my new policy. An *** whomping $413 per month (liable only, no collision). Upon furthur review my insurance a$$holes decided to charge me a years worth of insurance into 8 months.
$295 x 12 = $3540 (includes tax and charges)
$413 x 8 = $ 3304 + tax + charges = $3540
:?
Does this make sense? Since when does the Gregorian calendar that we use all of a sudden lose 4 months?

That sucks Jim, and I totally forgot you don't have collision...which makes that price jump even more ridiculous. Did they screw up and add collision on your policy to make it that high? I hope it is, maybe it wil go down.

pick up a phone book and send your info to all insurance places in your area... I do this every 2 years... because after they get my $$ twice they jack it up a grand!
I dont understand how they can charge me an insane ammount.. how many of my vehicles can me and my wife drive? lol...and I put 2 away for the winter...

Sounds like BS to me Jim. SUPER CLEAN record and they treat you like some ricer who drives like a retard. You should be paying much less than that. I hope it'* just a clerical error :?
At least here in the US insurance drops once you hit 25 (depending on your record I'm sure)...does that happen where you are?

Damn Jason, I pay the equivalent of $650 every 6 months, full coverage, full glass...$107 and change monthly and still under my parent'* insurance. I wish I could get my payment under $100. It used to be then it went up a month later.
