It's that time of year again ..........
I've mentioned this before, but here's my story again just as the pain of "reminders" hits
For many years I had several (4 actually) stand alone bike policies that each earned "no claims" bonuses ...... 2 of them actually had the max NCB of 9 years.
2 years ago my broker said "why dont you save money by going onto a multi bike policy". "Great idea" methinks, saved me about ÂŁ150, "sign me up" I said.
1 year ago the same broker refused to cover my 690SMC ..... so back to 2 policies
Here's the rub - Consolidating down to 1 policy wipes out all the NCB's on the other bikes - So you start again FROM SCRATCH when you open another policy.
Guess what. Savings wiped out and now paying more than the old "4 policy" method.
Note to self ....... never trust people "just trying to be helpful"
