Women drivers are road-ragers too
Get a quick car insurance quote Women have been statistically proven to be
safer drivers and submit few less expensive claims in comparison to men
and are therefore benefiting form lower premiums. Could this be about
to change as new research shows women are becoming as fast and aggressive
as men? Too many UK travellers waste millions of pounds on their travel insurance buying hugely expensive premiums from travel agents. Consumers make a considerable saving on their travel insurance if they purchase it from an insurance company either over the phone or on the Internet. From the 14th January 2005, the insurance industry falls under the regulation of the Financial Services Authority, where as travel agents are exempt from this regulation. The new regulation will create two groups of policy holders who are either protected by the FSA or not protected by the FSA. Traditionally, travel agents over charge for peripheral products such as travel insurance which according to many consumer watchdogs defies logic. Consumers have been continually advised to search the market for cheaper travel cover, with the introduction of the new regulation that suggestion is even more important. If a customer buys an unregulated product from the travel agent they will not have the support of the FSA or the Financial Ombudsmen Service who have the power to investigate insurers, brokers and intermediaries and take appropriate action. MSN's insurance provider, Insurancewide offers an annual, multi-trip policy for a family of 2 adults and 3 children under 18 for £85 (inc. US and Canada). Thomas Cook's annual family insurance policy costs £215 and does not provide the same level of cover. That's a saving of £130.
