...used to work for the CIS Ltd (which stands for Co-operative Insurance Society) I worked for them for 9 years, since I left school but I left them when I pregnant, 3 years ago and never returned. I used to insure everything through them just because it was easy for me to get quotes and immediate cover, and to deal with people I knew. Now most of the people I used to work with have left so I thought I would look on the Internet to get a quote that ... ...was all right.
The CIS deal through local agents and they have many district offices scattered around the country, which these agents work through. The agents are supposed to come to see you but you can deal with the company direct at the district office, which is where I used to work.
Back to the website, well they even make a helpful suggestion at the start by asking you to have certain documents at hand, like your driving licence, latest insurance ...

Advantages: cheap, helpful, face to face service, trustworthy, no hassle Disadvantages: none
MY EXPERIENCE.
My experience of this company is a very good one, ive been with this company for about 6 or 7 years now and never had any problems, theyve always been courteous, fast and efficient. When i first started out with this company, i called and asked for a quote, which they couldnt give me immediately due to computer problems (the wonders of modern technology), instead of keeping me hanging on the phone for ages, the operator said they ... ...30 minutes later, with an apology for not being able to give me my quote there and then.
To my amazement the quote was the cheapest id had by over £100, i said i was happy with the quote, and the woman said an agent needed to call at my house to fill in the forms and for me to sign the documentation.
The agent called at my house on time as arranged, he was fast and efficient, but most of all courteous and polite. We had abit of a laugh to pass ...

Advantages: meant to be good value Disadvantages: cannot get through to get a quote!
...going to be insuraed with CIS next year!
There is no facility for them to take a phone number and come back to you, and no indication what so ever about where you are in the queue. This results in frustration and I have not the time nor the inclination to find out how long it takes.
My suggestion is that the CIS chairman tries to ring his own helpline occasionally to discover what his service is like! This would lead to him discovering how difficult ...

Advantages: CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP! Disadvantages: dodgy? who said that? I'm slightly deaf in this ear.
Any normal 17 year old wants to drive, it's always been something I wanted to do and it certainly gave me the freedom that I'd wanted, freedom to drive yourself places, or just to enjoy the experience. The control of a vehicle. But as with most things there is always a catch and have certainly found there to be more than one with driving. Road tax, petrol prices etc etc goes on and seemingly on.
But oh yes, I have been driving for two years now ... ...of my life, the one thing that burns a consistanly large hole in my pocket- the insurance. The sting in the tail of early motoring. Cars are cheap, fuel isn't too bad,(although still extortionate compared to the US prices) but insurance for the young driver is through the roof, and I wasn't a happy bunny. Can't we make it any better for younger, SAFE drivers? Although no one believes it we are safer than some other groups of drivers.
People I know ...

Advantages: Cheap, friendly Disadvantages: Unable to buy online
...the internet for insurance quotes CIS provided me with the cheapest quote by far. My insurance costs me just over £45 a month. Compared to other quotes I am saving (on average) £50 a month. I am 17 driving a K-reg 1.1 Rover Metro. My dad is the main driver, he has had a license for more years than he'd care to remember but due to him having his own car is unable to gain a no-claims bonus. This is where CIS are particularily goo - they give you an ... ...always polite and friendly. The salesman himself was exceptionally helpful and polite. He only took 20 minutes to sort out the quote and print a cover note intantly.
Personally I would recommend CIS for their swift and friendly service - and of course most important of all their cheap price. ...
