Dees shopping for another Sponsor

[Bossdog 2,002]

Surely you've heard of APIA Old Dee.

Custom built to fleece pensioners.

I found APIA to be very competitive and were great when paying out a claim.......You actually get to speak with real people....Very rare these days........

[old dee 23,560]

Anyone else.

So you don't like them then?

[old dee 23,560]

Just noticed Progressive Insurance seems to have disappeared from our website as a named sponsor.

just checked the MFC web site Vagg

Still listed as a sponsor

[stuie 7,374]

Should we change the thread to "Dees shopping for another insurer"....?

Really? I'm blowed if I can find any reference to them on the MFC site. In fact, at the bottom of their home page, where they list their sponsors, they show only Webjet, Opel, Hertz, New Balance & Peter Werth...

Coles Insurance are buying customers at the moment, guaranteeing to beat any other quote

get the best quote you can then ring them

I did and scan/emailed them last year's policy which was then the cheapest i found (and incidentally this year's renewal was $120 dearer for less sum insured which i did not scan/email)

they beat that price by $5, so I accepted

expect i will go through whole charade again next year

dc I am involved in the supplier to Coles industry among other things.

They are the greatest bunch of pricks this side of the black stump.

I would not buy from Coles if they were the last insurance company on Earth.

Rather drive around uninsured than give them $1.

And RobbieF don't touch them with a 100ft. barge pole.

PS that is the only way to keep the price down.

Keep changing company's.

We don't handle domestic insurance and I use a recognised insurer for my cars. I don't care as much about the price as I do about the product.

If my premium is around last years I just renew if it's gone up by a lot I ask them why and if they don't budge I'll maybe look around but I have more important priorities.

i know where you are coming from od

the supermarket duopoly is a blight both on customers and suppliers

but it will only be improved by better competition and maybe regulation

the first think government should do is break the petrol/supermarket nexus. surely it is against trade practices regulations, but nobody has the guts to tackle it

boycotting won't work

I got hounded for another 3 as well I had already bought 3 and I must say I'm a bit sick of them ringing me every year to buy more.

I've got a few $50 scratches but that's all.

Visy/Amcor

Coles/Safeway

Coke/Pepsi

They are destroying the entire food chain slowly and deliberately.

Grow your own veg if you can and avoid them like the plague.

They are a menace to the food supply and society.

Coles are not an insurer they are simply acting as agents for Lumley General Insurance (Part of Westfarmers) so they receive commission on sales.

Have a look at your agreed value and you will see that it agreed value or market value whichever is the lesser.

I understand that RobbieF

Coles or West Farmers

Just different pockets in the same jacket.

I agree, they must have me on file as a pushover! i'd be better off buying $500 of merch from the demon shop

[old dee 23,560]

Heard of saying "No" guys

I know they are just an agent

the terms of policy matched what i already had emailed them and insured value is market value only

How about that!? Following your link shows quite a large list of sponsors, including Progressive. But, just going straight to the website, I see no way of navigating to that page. As I said before, when I go to the home page, there's just the handful of sponsors mentioned, and Progressive aint one of them. Strange. Ah well...!!

Forget moral and social issues (whatever they are) and get to the point. Can I get an insurer who will believe that my barbecued alpacas have really been struck by lightening?

Go to the MFC website, roll over where it says "the club", click on sponsors.

The short answer is NO
