During these rather harsh financial times I am sure that we could all do with some tips on how to save some extra money. There has never been a better time to save money on your various insurance renewals. In this article I will be explaining about the ways in which you can ensure you make these savings.

Due to the fact that I have just renewed my own auto insurance that is the type of insurance I will concentrate on in this article.

I am not an insurance specialist in fact I am just a regular guy from the UK who is involved in providing jobs in foster care, offering people quality external doors and enabling the public to obtain budget package holidays.

My annual renewal notice arrived in the post around two weeks ago. The premium itself was quite fair and not too much money in reality however I still wanted to be able to pay even less than what I had been quoted – we are in a recession after all.

In an attempt to find a lower quote I went online to use a car insurance comparison website. The cheapest price was in fact twenty pounds lower than what I had been quoted.

I then telephoned the company that I was already with and therefore the car insurance company that had sent me the renewal notice and told them that I had used a car insurance comparison site and that I had managed to obtain a quote that was £40 lower than what they had quoted. I enquired as to whether they could match or even beat this quote.

I went in with a lower price than what I had actually received as I knew they were never going to offer me the full reduction. To my great pleasure and perhaps surprise they offered me a reduction of thirty pounds on what they had originally quoted. Oh yes I felt so proud of myself!

I hope these tips help you in the same way that they have worked for me, please let me know how you get on. You never know those extra pounds that you save could help you to start saving towards a new car or perhaps a holiday – every penny counts, as they say – especially in a recession.
