| Post subject: | car insurance |
Hi guys, wondered if anyone could help. DH and I immigrated from Scotland to Toronto almost 4 years ago. We have full driving licenses which the govt swapped out with our own. (I had 17 years with no accidents in UK) Ive never had a car accident and drive a 2010 toyota corrolla. The car insurance is $3500 per year with td. Ive shopped around, State farm were close to $4000 per year. Anyone got any insurance companies they can recommend that would provide a better quotation. Thanks in advance Tracey |

I find they gave me best quote on car & house. Spriggs in Oakville is one agent but you probably could find other agents. |

Get a online quote from Kinetix.ca or insurancehotline.com. They will compare a lot of companies for you. TD has a reputation of starting cheap and rising fast afterwards. RBC has pretty good rates. |

http://www.miltowneinsurance.com/ I have sent so many people to Miltowne and they have been able to find better insurance deals for everyone! Give them a try as they are brokers and will look around for what is best for you. |

I have been with PC insurance for several years-they have several companies they deal with. I have a good rate and have had great service. As with other companies, insure more than one product and discounts can be had. These discounts add up to a huge savings! A friend has been with AXA (pp mentioned this co) and has has good service and good rates. She's an agent and got some quotes for me....AXA was comparable with what I have from PC (Pembridge Auto). I stayed with PC b/c overall-house and both cars-it was slightly cheaper (if I remember correctly??) and wasn't worth the switch. |

Btw....altogether I think we pay approx $3300-3400/yr for two cars (with a couple additions to regular policy that maybe add up to a couple hundred for both of us) and a few hundred of that should disappear when my hubby's ticket goes away (wasn't a major one), and house insurance. ($$ should be close....can't recall exact amt right now) |

I am and insurance agent with allstate. I know we will give current Canadian experience plus 3 years if you have a drivers abstract from scotland, as well if you have a letter of experience from your insurance company in scotland that would help lower costs as well for you. I would love the oppurtunity to provide you with a quote and see if I can save you some money. PM me if you are interested. Caleb Chir Agent Allstate Insurance cchir@allstate.ca |

Try calling Western Assurance (google for their number) and ask them for an agent in Milton for a quote. We were with another company for years but this year we shopped around and found this company the best as we are now paying $500 less between our two vehicles. |

Are you part of any professional group? IF so, you can try getting a quote from Meloche Monnex. It is a TD company, but does group insurances only. So far, I haven't seen anybody with lower rates than them. My friend is with Johnson Insurance, and says they are good with rates too. You can try them out: http://www1.johnson.ca/ Good luck. |

That is ridiculously high. Our policy for both cars is almost half (& wife is really still a newer driver) There are many discount programs available (everything from university alumni to union affiliation) that can cut your rates way down |

Thank you everyone for replying and the PMS. DH pays more than me, so glad to know that I am not moaning unjustly. I will look into my options now. Thanks again Tracey |
