  1. Hi, the insurer won't allow us to suspend the policy I'm afraid once it has started.
  2. UPDATE: a note about competitiveness Looking at the YTD figures Chris Knott Insurance has won 38% of all new quotes offered during 2015. That's really good and means we're frequently beating the best rate that members can find anywhere else. And, if you thought that was just a ploy to attract new clients and then hike the rates in year 2, you'd be wrong - we keep 82% of policies at renewal. This is because we try to offer consistent pricing (as long as there have been no claims or other changes during the year). We're all about trust and long-term relationships, not wildly fluctuating quot
  3. Don't forget to ask us for a quote if your car insurance is due soon. If you obtain a quote during September you'll be entered into the Chris Knott draw to WIN mods/parts/accessories OF YOUR CHOICE upto the value of £150 (obtained through Euro Car Parts). Kim, Ian, Kathy, Rebecca and Tabitha are all waiting for your call, so don't disappoint them. They want to save you money on your car insurance. Please call and give them the opportunity to find you a better deal. It's what they do. It's what they love doing. QUOTELINE: FREEPHONE 0800 917 2274 - now FREE for mobiles too. best, Nick
  4. Insurers have that as a specific restriction - it suggests it's a track car rather than a road car. Their thinking is "Why do you want to remove the rear seats unless it's to make the car lighter? Why do you want the car to be lighter?" You can see how this could look like you want to race. There's also the risk that you might have to carry a passenger or two in the back. Imagine you take a chance and there's an accident and because they're not seated or strapped in the injury or death costs are huge.
  5. Hi, Those who follow Chris Knott's forum activity will know that we regularly offer tempting prizes to reward members who ask us for a quote. This month is no exception as we launch the September Special. Simply ask us for a car quote this month and we'll enter you into our draw to WIN upto £150 worth of performance car parts from Euro Car Parts. The best bit perhaps is that you'll get to choose the exact parts you want and we'll just pick up the tab. We know that we have great rates for car club/forum members as insurers help us to win more business and we're really keen for you to give
  6. ***Feedback about the special Chris Knott Car Club scheme*** Hi, Our single biggest source of business by a long way is personal recommendation. It's great to know that you're telling others when we've given good prices and service. Thank you! Here's all the feedback about Chris Knott that people left for other members to read on forums and social media JUST LAST MONTH (there's a lot of positive feeling out there, for which we're grateful): "Another year with you guys. Thanks for your continued support to us owners with lots of modifications" dawesy, MR2OC "My current insurer on the

  9. We've arranged for this extra charge to disappear given that the insurer didn't come back with a price for the alteration and this is what caused you to arrange alternative cover. There's nothing else for you to pay. Glad we could sort this out for you. best, Nick
  10. Thanks Steve, I'm looking into this for you. Mel definitely passed the details on to ERS but I can't see their response anywhere. If it turns out it's the insurer's fault we'll be trying to get them to relax on the payment for you. Please chase me later on tomorrow (Weds) if you've not heard anything. best, Nick
  11. I've had a look at this and yes your insurer offers something called short period cancellation rates rather than pro-rata cancellation. It means that they retain greater chunks of the premium as time goes on than a proportional structure would necessitate. Just pointing you to a page in the policy booklet isn't really the best way to deal with it but maybe explains the rating structure more clearly. It is unfortunate that we didn't respond to your emails. Can you remember which address you sent them to?
  12. Check this out...

  13. What's the issue ssaunders? Can I help?
  14. They say that if you wait long enough everything comes back into fashion. That's certainly what's happened with 0800 freephone numbers as, since 1st July, 0800 calls are now FREE on all mobiles as well as landlines. We'll continue to advertise the Chris Knott geographic number (01424 200477) alongside our freephone number for a little while yet but you can start using our 0800 917 2274 number from your mobiles with immediate effect. We look forward to your call if your car insurance is due for renewal soon. You can use the same 0800 number for our Breakdown Cover, GAP Insurance and Home
  15. Guess which club/forum features in Chris Knott's Top 20... Chris Knott Insurance specialises in looking after the insurance needs of car enthusiasts, working for the members of around 200 car clubs/forums across the UK. We've compiled our Top 20 clubs/forums for the first half of 2015. The results are based on a combination of the number of quotes requested by the club, the number of new policies sold and then the % of quotes converted. If your club features it means you're more likely to save money on your standard/modified/multicar insurance when you ask Chris Knott to quote because yo
  16. AND THE WINNER IS... Very many congratulations go to Mrs M Goffe from Portsmouth who won the Chris Knott Triple Supercar Prize Draw - just for getting a quote.

If your car insurance is due in the coming weeks please do give us a call and we'll do all we can to win your business. The insurers on our panel are looking for good, solid car club/forum members like you. Why not give Chris Knott Insur

  19. Chris Knott - better prices than most? According to a recent survey by the AA, motor insurance premiums fell by 1% during Q1 of 2015 - the average UK comprehensive motor insurance premium being £530.47 with the direct brokers and price comparison sites. I'm pleased to let members know that the Chris Knott average premium is well below that at just £357.63 for Q1 - £172.84 less than the national average! So please give Chris Knott a call when your car insurance is due for renewal to see how much you could save through our special car club/forum scheme. QUOTELINE: 0800 917 2274 / 01424 200
  20. Just a quick reminder that this is the final month... ...of the Chris Knott Triple Supercar Prize Draw (details above). You only have until 31/5 to get your CAR INSURANCE quote or HOME INSURANCE quote from us and secure entry into our draw for a driving experience in not one, not two but three of your favourite supercars at either the Top Gear location or one of 3 other tracks around the UK. So, if your insurance is due between now and the end of June, please get your quote BEFORE THE END OF MAY for your chance to win. HOW TO ENTER We prefer to talk to you on the phone to get a better fe
  21. Phone Quotes v Comparison Sites I often hear members say things like "Yeah, but you won't be able to compete with the price comparison sites will you? - I mean they're just so cheap". And my response is this... Actually we're just as likely to beat an online price as any other. It's not a case that you should only go online when searching for quotes, just as it isn't necessarily going to work best for you if you only get phone quotes. The key is to try both - they're different offerings and either could come up with the winning quote for you as an individual. Different deals exist for br
