Advantages: When your cover ends
Disadvantages: Signing your contract...

...the road i stumbled upon Allen & Allen and bingo, this was my new insurance. I was given a quote and told how and when i should pay. So a week later the papers arrived and i signed them. Finally my car was good to go. Then it all went down hill........ First of all i was told that until i had payed the total amount for my premium i would be sent no insurance papers. But wait, i was told that instalments were fine and that by direct debit it would ...

Beware. You cannot cancel a policy without paying for the whole 12 months or a substancial fee, or they won't give your previous No Claim Bonus back to you. They say, pay or Lose your No Claim Bonus. 8 months into a policy you can't cancel for any reason, without paying for the whole 12 months, or you'll lose you NO Claims Bonus. Administration fees of £25 for any change of information whatsoever. Change your address and it will cost you £25 for them to simply type it in, not including any increase in your Insurance Premium. It feels like a Bank Charge. High Excess rates. Lots of little traps that get you paying money while your with them. Watch out.
