The 21 day insurance myth

Hi,

There's a partial myth going round that the best time to buy your car insurance is 21 days before expiry.

I say partial because while it may be true with some of the comparison sites (who'll likely increase your quote if you buy close to expiry), there are some other quality providers that don't adopt these tactics or penalise you for leaving the purchase a little late.

With Chris Knott's offering to car clubs and enthusiast groups, it doesn't matter whether you buy 21 days before or at the last minute. Our quotes are valid for 30 days, so if you get a Chris Knott quote 21 days early we'll honour that price right up to your renewal date as long as nothing has changed.

Because we factor your best alternative quote into the process you can even call us the day before expiry and we'll use your lowest quote from the last 30 days as the benchmark to beat (subject to seeing proof).

So don't just accept a high quote because you've left it a bit late and think you're out of options - give Chris Knott a call.

You can request a quote callback at:

or call us when you're ready to go through the quote:
0800 917 2274 (please mention this forum)

best,
Nick

This is the first time I've heard of such a myth. It's funny of course. Glad you don't and your service is quality and the same on all days. I also use deductible insurance on my beloved car. It is the best choice. And it would upset me if they had special days for the best buy. I use https://www.moneyexpert.com/car-insurance/excess-insurance-policies/ , and they have not disappointed me in three years. Franchises in general are an opportunity to get more customers through lower policy costs, such myths only discourage. I will take your site to heart and now I know two definitely good insurance sites, thanks.

It’s not a myth. It’s a general rule established by moneysavingexpert.com who I trust totally. Although it’s 23 days now.

See this link.
