Dolmen insurance

I have just received my renewal notice for my policy due 6th March.

Last year I paid £247. This year it has risen by £50 to £297. I have not made a claim in the last policy year.

Any one else had a renewal? Quite a huge jump. I quite like Dolmen, I have had around 10 good years of service and 2 well handled claims in that period. Their policy I feel is quite comprehensive and has been good value. On a few other occasions I have dabbled with online quotes from others but they nearly always want you to phone them, I don’t particularly want to go down this route.

Comments welcomed.

Your getting it £11 cheaper and £50 cheaper for open drive then we are down here.

I’ve also paid £297 or thereabouts for a few years

Dolmen give a good discount for increasing your excess. I paid around £240 last year for a £500 excess.
The way I look at it, I wouldn't be claiming for a small claim.
I'd rather keep my no claim bonus incase I have to move somewhere else.

I find this rather strange since I asked them for a no claims cert,I have been with them for 5 years, and was told that it does not apply to camper insurance because it is a special rate?

If you were moving to another Ins company they may ask if you had any claims in the last 5 years.
That's what I meant by keeping my no claims bonus. Small damage under £500 I wouldn't make a claim.
So there's no in me paying extra premium for a £100 excess.
I go for the reduced price with higher excess £500
Get a discount aswell for I.C.C.C. membership.
Renewal on the 1st March so I'll post the 2021 price then.
