If a soccer player was told to deliberately miss a penalty shot that would be regarded as match fixing....

Gotta love the "forward" view from there.

Enjoy!

Anyone had or heard any experiences dealing with Youi insurance?

Two cars up for renewal & they have beaten AAMI (been with them for many years) by $800 :shock:

If their last name starts with a V, yes.

No, but I can recommend Coles. I found they were cheaper than Youi, and are underwritten by Wesfarmers.

blackcat20 thanks for the tip.

I rang Coles. However, due to my poor driving record over the past 3 years (2 very minor car park scrapes) it blew out the price.

FWIW their price to cover SWMBO car is very cheap & beats Youi.......due to her perfect driving record :shock: BTW there is zero chance that I'll be divulging this tonight

Have my home/contents and car insurance with them, they were much more competitive on the car insurance, based on that the car is locked up at home in a garage for 90% of its time. We have made a claim (at fault) with them and there were no problems around it either, premium only went marginally up even after this. I'm not sure if we receive any sort of discount for having both with them, the operator I spoke to at the time couldn't give me a yes or no answer.

They have no physical outlets, and all their correspondance is by phone or email, which I guess saves on their overheads a lot, but certainly suits the way I do thigns these days.

I've been with AAMI for years too, no claims so full no claim forever bonus. Until their last renewal and our House Insurers (SGIC/GIO) beat them by over $600. Lucky I'm not with AAMI anymore.

I find I have to change every few years to keep the price down. Insurance companies seem to offer much better deals to get your business, than to keep your business......

It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it

Much the same over in the UK too...

Very true. I change most years...almost time for me to start looking around again!

Have you tried Budget Direct?

Or even ComparetheMarket?

Last time I went car insurance shopping I found CGU to be the cheapest (three years ago), and they haven't hiked the prices in the meantime.

There's a 3 year old girl on YouTube who has a very skilled batting action.

Anything Euro looks very dodgy at the moment.......the mattresses throughout the zone but be getting very stuffed.
