O/T Car Insurance

[city1927]

Firstly, I don't drive myself - medically D/Q.
My wise's insurance is due next month. It's a 20 reg Ford Focus Zetec.
She's currently with Tesco, who were the best she could find last year.
Their renewal has come in at £489 (full comp) with £100 excess.

Going through compstison sites, she could save approx £200 with General Accident, with £50 excess

Too good to be true?
They have some shiit reviews on Trustpilot.

Anyone got experience with these?
I thought they were a "good name" but I have no experience of them from my driving years.


Are they ok until you have to try to claim? anything else?
Advice appreciated

They are part of the Aviva group.

I have not had any experience with General Accident, the only real time you have experinece is when you have to make a claim. I switch every year to the cheapest one that meets my needs to be honest.
Ring up Tesco and tell them the quote you have had and see if they can match it. If not I would leave.

Sorry should have said that I have had experience of dealing with Avia for a claim and I had no issues. I was not with them directly but a company who were underwritten by them. So when I had to make the claim you end up going through to them directly as they are the ones who will be dealing with it. So that will be the similar case with General Accident, hopefully that will not happen to your wife and she will not need that service.
Hope that helps
