Cutting the cost of insurance can slash monthly outgoings

CONOR POPE

HOW TO SAVE ON... INSURANCE:  ONE of the first things people anxious to cut costs should look at are the prices they pay for insurance policies remembering all the while that although shopping around is essential, it’s less effective if it is not accompanied by forensic analysis of all policies to make sure they cover only what is needed.

Repeated surveys carried out by the National Consumer Agency (NCA) point to savings which can be made on life, health, car and home insurance. In fact, according to some of its reports, more than €1,000 can be cut from motor insurance alone with just a couple of phone calls.

You might not be able to save such massive sums - unless you are very lucky - but you should still be able to shave something off your insurance costs by being a bit cuter.

There are, for example, car insurance companies offering discounts to policy holders who use public transport to get to work.You have to ask for it and have to prove you actually do it, with a tax-saver commuter ticket for instance, but once you tick all the boxes, the cost of a policy can fall by as much as 20 per cent, or over €100 a year.

Make sure to check if there are deals for buying car insurance and home insurance from the same provider as many companies offer multi-insurance discounts.

Many also offer discounts to those who book online, even if they also have an off-line presence too. Onedirect.ie offers a 10 per cent online booking discount while 123.ie , is worth checking out because despite its infuriating advertising jingle, it can save you money. And never limit your search to traditional providers - Tesco sells car insurance at competitive rates and offers discounts of 10 per cent to club card carriers and as the saying goes, every little helps.

There is also blagging - when your renewal comes up, just ring your provider and imply that you have been offered a cheaper quote elsewhere. It is amazing how often companies will match the made-up quote.
