Happy 2010 Everyone! No Comments
Great news, 2010 is now here 
2010 should be the year when the world finally pulls out of recession and all the major economies register some serious positive growth. The expected house price increases may bring a rise in interest rates or perhaps a bit of inflation but overall we should all end up much better off by this time next year.
Have a great weekend, its back to work on Monday 
If you like twitter then today is a New Years Day #followfriday so make the most of it, that won’t happen again for a few years.

Travel Insurance and the European Health Insurance Card June 25, 2009 1 Comment
If you are off some where nice like the Athena Royal Beach Hotel this year for your summer holiday then don’t forget to get the right travel insurance cover and your European Health Insurance Card. Most UK insurance companies will void your cover if you make a claim without one of these cards in place so its vital that you get this done a few weeks before you go abroad. Its free to get one so use the link above to apply today just in case you are unfortunate and need to make a claim abroad.
There are loads of great places to get your travel insurance and lots of different types of cover available. If you are thinking about going on another trip this year then it probably makes sense to buy an annual policy so that you don’t need to buy a second insurance policy later in the year.
Don’t forget to pick the right amounts for your valuables and contents cover, its easy to under estimate the true worth of your items and things like wedding rings might slip your mind. If you have a problem abroad its much easier to claim for items that you have specified upfront when buying your travel insurance policy.
Finally, if you do buy a policy and you are going to Cyprus or another hot country, you probably don’t need winter sports cover so make sure you exclude that from your travel insurance policy.
Well thats the insurance bit out of the way, remember the 3 rules:
- Get your european health insurance card
- Get the right travel insurance policy for your trip
- Have a great time
Server Moves Upgrades June 12, 2009 No Comments
The IT guys have told me that there is some technical reason that we need to move servers or IPs or something like that.
For that reason our servers may be offline during the weekend of 13th and 14th June 2009 but the disruption should be all cleared up by Tuesday 16th June 2009 at the latest.
Summer Holiday Travel Insurance May 27, 2009 1 Comment
Its that time of year when I need to think about summer holidays and travel insurance. Here at multi-quote.com, we’ve been busy working behind the scenes so we’ve not got round to adding a travel insurance comparison site yet. Its a shame as its always prudent to compare prices before you buy.
In absence of any other links try this cheap travel insurance link.
I’ve been looking around for places to go so if anyone has any great ideas for places to visit in Europe then add a comment to this post. I’ve had a look around at the Canary Islands, this post about Callao Salvaje (Tenerife) was helpful but I need to look some more first. Perhaps I’ll grab a late break.
Anyway, interesting as this is, there is not much about insurance so basically, get a cheap travel insurance policy here.
5 months on and all’s well? April 20, 2009 No Comments
I’ve been away on other projects for a few months now so its about time for more blogs and updates.
Since my last post interest rates have dropped to near zero, petrol prices have fallen and look to be on the rise again and we could be 6 weeks away from a general election. Labour seems to have finally been caught out on sleaze and expense rows possibly signalling the end of an era for Gordon Brown and party.
All in all its exciting but slightly worrying times. The economy stands on a knife edge, finely balanced between green shoots of growth and bankruptcy and failure.
Its going to be an interesting few months which will be vitally important to the future success of our great nation.
Baby Car Seats Cover – Car Insurance Policy Benefits November 26, 2008 1 Comment
This is the first in a series of posts looking at the benefits offered by UK car insurance companies. Today we will look at Child and Baby Car Seats cover.
Most UK car insurance providers now compete on much more than price. With the ascent of insurance price comparison sites, or “aggregators” as they are known in the industry, many car insurance brokers now feel that it is not enough to simply be the cheapest. Policy benefits are now a big part of the decision when choosing to buy your car insurance policy.
The following is an extract from the Norwich Union site which details this particular policy benefit:
- Did you know that if your car has been in an accident – even if there is no visible damage – it is possible that your child car seat could be weakened so that it will not provide the same level of protection in a further accident?
- The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (ROSPA) recommends that all child car seats should be replaced following an accident. That’s why we’ll [Norwich Union] provide child car seat cover as standard with our fully comprehensive motor insurance polices. We’ll [Norwich Union] replace your child car seat up to the value of £100 following an accident or theft – even if it looks undamaged.
Many other top UK insurers and brokers now have similar terms in there fully comprehensive car insurance policies. The £100 limit is enough to cover most baby car seats on the market. In fact, prices on My Baby Supermarket range from £34.95 to just under £80 so the level of cover is right as well.
Petrol Prices Slide – Save Even more in the Credit Crunch November 21, 2008 No Comments
Petrol prices have fallen rapidly on the back of a record decline in the price of crude oil. In some UK filling stations it now costs just 90p per litre, down from highs of around £1.20 just three months ago. The savings can continue if you pay attention to the AA’s Eco-Driving article for van drivers. Here is a list of the top 7 recommendations for cheap motoring which should help all you van insurance customers out there.
- Check your tyre pressure – Under inflated tyres create more resistance and use more fuel for your journey
- Reduce unnecessary weight – Don’t carry around more tools than you need for the job, especially for jobs that are further away. The extra weight means you need more fuel to maintain your speed
- Don’t get lost – Plan your route to any job or delivery in an unfamiliar area or purchase a sat nav. Any time spent driving around looking for your destination is a complete waste of fuel (and your time)
- Switch off the air con – Keep the use of your air con to a minimum whilst you are in the van. Any air con unit will use fuel to keep it running
- Easy on the gas – Drive smoothly, accelerate gently and read the road ahead to avoid unnecessary braking
- Keep it rolling – By keeping your van moving it will take less fuel to get back up to speed than to go from a standing start. You can do this by increasing the distance between you and the vehicle in front and use the distance to naturally slow down.
- Stick to the speed limits – Drive at or within the speed limit – the faster you go the greater the fuel consumption and the greater the pollution too. According to the Department for Transport driving at 70mph uses up to 9% more fuel than at 60mph and up to 15% more than at 50mph. Cruising at 80mph can use up to 25% more fuel than at 70mph. It’s also a good idea as you will definitely not have to pay any speeding fines!
Sticking to the above suggestions can seriously improve your motoring costs in the tough financial climate. One other great way to save on your motoring is to compare cheap van insurance with an online price comparison service. You could save up to £200 on your renewal just in time for Christmas which will come in handy for the festive season.
