Title: who do you use for van insurance ?
Post by: Window Washers on October 10, 2012, 02:37:24 pm
Hi Guys,


who do you use for van insurance ?
what price do you pay
do you have more than one driver

for those with multiple drivers per van (not fleet) who do you guys use, what is the premium ?

I use APlan at the moment with a quote for this year of £689 FComp with anydriver over 30 500L wfp fitted system
and £649 with 2 names drivers both over 30
can anyone better this ?


Cheers

Hi

Alexandra swan only one that really as replacement vans
Talk to Sarah

Aplan i do not think it as any vans for you to work with will try to give you a van only no system in it
Read the small print and get it in writting
Please ask a plan how many vans they have got before you pay any money

Money side of it you only get what you pay for

I have allready had a claim some  polish driver backed into me next day van on front of house with ionic thermo pure system in
Worked with this for 2 weeks

Cannot thank Sarah enough

Phoned AA today, they quoted £550 for van with tank up to 500L max fitted. (insurer was Highway)

Commercial vehicle direct were £510 with all sorts of 'extras' included (not really needed IMO)

A-Plan quoted £507 with Ageas as insurer.  Will cover tank fitted and will send paperwork to say that tank has been noted on policy.

Probably will go with A-Plan. 

Com vehicle direct seemed very eager to make a sale there and then on the phone, not something I like personally until I've weighed up all the options.

RE. WFP fitted courtesy vans; this is not always as great a deal as it sounds..

If you have a non fault accident and don't want to claim on your own insurance, you won't get a WFP kitted courtesy van.

Hope that makes sense!

If you have do not have a professional fitted system alexander swan will not insure you and they only have few courtesy vans in different locations across uk .

As for A Plan i am insured with them and have the paperwork to prove they will provide a courtesy van with fully fitted 650 ltr  wfp system if my memory serves me well cant be bothered to dig paper work out .

Up for renewal in the next few weeks . Mike
