well i've just phoned 2gether for a quote for my paj due to me payin over the odds at the moment and wondering if they could do any better at all, currently im paying £1284.71 per year TPFT, well spoke to Simon at 2gether and he has given me a quote of £880 per year fully comp!! so next week i will be changing and going to 2gether!! obviously i do have some concerns when reading the latest posts on here but i'm figuring even if i just use them for a year its cheap enough Smile

by the way i'm also paying higher than usual coz i lost my NCD and have speeding points Embarassed

I have been with 2gether for quite a while now, but when my policy for the 2.8 Paj comes to an end later this month, I will be going elsewhere, as Highway have pushed the price barrier too far.

I recieved my renewal quote today via email from 2gether, stating that the quote from Highway was the best that they could get, and then suggested I accepted the renewal quote....... but, although it is much lower than the prices that some members have been quoted, it is still a lot more than I paid last year, infact it is more than I have ever paid for car insurance Shocked

and just short of £200 more than the price quoted by the company that I am going to be moving over to........ The quote from Highway to renew was made without the extra, that would no doubt be put on top, when I told them about a claim I made back in May, for another vehicle insured by a different company. The new company already knows about the claim, and has taken it into account when quoting their price to insure the Paj.

I just need my proof of NCB when the policy finishes, and the deal will be done......... I really hope that it will arrive a lot faster than my proof of NCB on my old tranny van which I sold in January 2011, as I am still waiting for it Rolling Eyes

(something else that helped me come to my decision), it's just as well that I wasn't buying a new van. In my several years of dealing with 2gether, things don't seem to be as good as they once were. Sometimes the expansion of a business doesn't increase overall business or efficiency, and my experience with 2gether backs that up.

I realise that prices of policies are set by insurance companies and their under-writers, but the efficiency of a brokers customer service is down to the brokers themselves, and having to wait 8 months (and still counting) for proof of NCB is not good customer service.

Well thanks again to 2Gether my renewal was £331.80 so I shopped around to see if it could be beaten, Sureterm would'nt quote as I don't have off road parking, they said that they could not quote on their 4x4 policy because of this so it would be £500+ through them, Adrian Flux did slightly better than 2Gether @ £323.34 I then got a quote through a local broker they came up with £320, so I rang 2Gether today and thanks to their renewal guarentee they renewed for £319.19 not a huge saving but these days every penny counts so for the fifth year I have stuck with 2Gether Smile

. Fully Comp , Protected NCB, £200 Excess.

I have been with 2gether now for a few years, went to them originally because of the club recommendations, and because their prices were also reasonable. I have had one solitary claim several years back when a van was broken into, but the policy had NCB protected, so was not an issue when renewing the policy. (I have had a recent claim, but the policy wasn't anything to do with 2gether).

Over the years, I have seen Simon regularly defend 2gether against comments from other members, and I believe that he has looked into issues to get them put right, no doubt this is because the club recommends them, but in reality, this should not need to happen.

Anyway, due to increases in the premiums, I decided to shop around. Since then, I have gradually taken all three vehicles to other insurers as the prices were just too high. I have never missed any payments, I have done everything that they have asked of me. Any comments that I have made have been based on my own experiences with 2gether.

Sadly, it seems that the way that 2gether repay my custom, is to make things difficult when I decided to leave? What else do you call holding back something that is mine by right, and breaking their promises to deliver?..... All that I have done, is to not renew my policies with them, and I have asked for my proof of NCB (bearing in mind there are 3 policies involved in total, and it was March when the first renewal had been due), I have been polite, I have been honest. I have paid my premiums in full. They made a promise to send it (should be them in reality), and nothing, I phone again and they make another promise and nothing.

Is the reason, by delaying the proof of NCB, to cause issues with the new insurance company? Hoping that the new company will get fed up of waiting and the resulting price increase will make the customer return to 2gether? Well it won't work with me, in fact it works the opposite, and I will ensure that I tell everyone what they have been like when dealing with me.

I know that Simon can put things right, as he has for many others previously, and discuss reported issues with them, but a decent insurance broker shouldn't need this doing. They should react to the customers original request without the need of "mentioning how many people use them" because of the club.

I wouldn't go back to 2gether if they were the brokers for the only company willing to insure me, I would rather walk or take the bus...... if you are looking for insurance, look around, 2gether certainly didn't do what they promised me.
