New look car insurance renewals steer competition forward
Revamped renewal notices mean Aussies might now be able to take the wheel on their car insurance and hunt for a more competitive deal!
As of this new financial year, drivers with a policy from a car insurance provider that subscribes to the Insurance Council of Australia’s Code of Conduct**, will be privy to a whole bunch of useful information. This includes a year-on-year price comparison, plus a breakdown of what they’re actually paying for. Comparing car insurance just got a lot easier.
"You’ll now get a snapshot of last year’s premium, which should prompt you to compare your current car insurance to other policies on the market. It’s a great way to find a better deal," says Mozo Insurance Expert Peter Marshall.
