When did you last review your insurance policies?
The Internet has changed many areas of everyday life and many areas of business however it seems many of us are still adamant that we will retain our existing insurance providers and other financial service providers. When was the last time you reviewed your insurance policies?
It is well known in the vast majority of people in the UK are happy to renew their insurance policies year by year, with many people never even considering a change and never even looking to see if better rates are available. There really is no excuse for throwing good money after bad in the insurance industry because simply by logging onto the various comparison websites available, or discussing your needs with your financial adviser, you should be able to at least shave something off your existing policy premiums.
When you consider you may have car insurance, house insurance, health insurance, dental insurance and many other different insurance policies, can you imagine the potential savings if you could even shave off between £50 and £100 a year from each insurance policy?
Next time your car insurance comes up why not checkout to see what rates are available elsewhere and compare these to what you have been paying, possibly for many years, and you may be surprised.
