ChrisKnottIns

Three reasons to call Chris Knott this December... 1. HIGHLY COMPETITIVE QUOTES The club/forum scheme is going really well at the moment. We're helping more of you than ever before because insurers are giving their respected brokers more room to move on price. This means we can respond to some of the quotes we would have previously had to turn away as too cheap for the risk. 2. DECEMBER'S PRIZE DRAW November's prize proved so popular that we're going to offer the same for December - a £100 Amazon Voucher. Simply ask us to quote for a car we don't yet insure, during December, and we'll enter you for the draw to take place in early January. QUOTELINE: 0800 917 2274 / 01424 200477 You can get quotes for January policies in December too, so please include Chris Knott Insurance in your quote search if you're due then - you could WIN a £100 Amazon Voucher. 3. YEAR-ROUND OFFER If you're an existing Chris Knott client there's a permanent money-saving offer for you too: Get your friends and family members to call us for a quote on their car insurance. When they go ahead with cover we'll give you £20 OFF your own renewal for each one. This is not just a Christmas offer - it runs all year round. There's no limit to the number of people you can refer or the amount that you can have credited to your own insurance account. Ask your friends and family to quote reference RAF480 when they call and we'll sort the rest. *************************** TESTIMONIALS We're still coming up with the goods for club/forum members: "Chris Knott just saved me £170 on renewal so I didn't bother phoning around anyone else. My premium went up year after year until I called Chris Knott last year. My renewal last year with Aviva went up £300, Chris Knott got me a renewal price £10 cheaper than what I was already paying on the current policy so saved £310 in total. And they kept me with Aviva. Chris Knott got me a deal with Aviva cheaper than Aviva could." sidibear, audi-sport.net "Just to say a big thank you to Chris Knott Insurance. By far the best price and really easy to deal with. I also had to change details after having received the quote but it was no trouble for them at all. I had 1 year less no claims than I originally stated, but they honoured the same price! Legends. Thanks again." rick6, MPS Owners Club "Called Chris Knott's today and saved 23% over my renewal quote from XXXXXX XXXX. Very pleased, my LHD import with modifications was no problem for the lady (Tabitha) on the phone. Great service, very pleased." SFIAC, ZRoadster forum ***************************

I'm pleased to announce the 2 winners of the Chris Knott October Prize Draw as Mrs E Ager of Volvo Owners Club and Mr J P Ward of Astra Owners Network. They each win a Black & Decker Pivot Auto Dustbuster. Don't forget that this month you could WIN a £100 Amazon Voucher - just for requesting a quote on a car we don't yet look after for you. If you have a car policy due for renewal in the next few weeks ask us to quote and see how much you could save when you switch to Chris Knott. We'll automatically enter you for the November draw. QUOTELINE: 0800 917 2274 / 01424 200477 best, Nick ************************ The latest testimonials about Chris Knott Car Insurance: "Went with Chris Knott for my insurance this year as the Octy I bought recently had had coilies put on it by the previous owner. Chris Knott were the ONLY insurance provider to give me what I would consider to be a reasonable quote, taking the modification into account. So thanks very much for that." samj2013, Briskoda.net "Just renewed my motor policy and had done the normal comparison sites etc, and had found a decent quote from one of the well known firms out there...anyway, thought for the sake of a phone call I would give Knotts a chance. A friendly guy named Ian went through my details and after a word with whoever, came back with a better price....only £15 but, as they say, better in mine..! Thanks CKI." B_king, Mercedes-Benz Owners Association "Thanks for the input CKI. My renewal quote from XXX was £432, I called CKI on Saturday & they would have to refer it to the insurance company to view. They came back with a quote of £329, I spoke to XXX [again] & they somehow matched it? I will be going with CKI this year, basically because when you add up the total amount paid with them & XXX over the year, they came out £50 cheaper." mr v6, 406 Coupe Owners Club ************************

Every driver needs to know this... My MD was telling me about a minor car accident he had recently. Ever since, he's been plagued by calls from firms asking him if he was injured. When he says “No†he's asked if he's sure he wasn’t injured. Again he says “No, I wasn’t injuredâ€. So he's then asked “Was there anyone else in the vehicle who might have been injuredâ€. He has two objections to this. Firstly, he objects to being encouraged to make a claim for injury that clearly isn’t warranted and, secondly, he wonders from where they got his personal details. Recent law changes arising from something called The Jackson Review aimed to stamp out such ‘ambulance-chasing’ practices, particularly by banning the referral fees offered by law firms. NO WIN NO FEE These sort of 'No Win No Fee' arrangements mean that if you don’t win your case there is no charge levied by the law firm/accident management firm for their services. It has always been worth a punt even if there wasn’t much chance of success. However, many won’t appreciate the sting in the tail - the flip-side of the coin where if you win, a fee most likely will be charged and it could be as much as 25% of your compensation award. This kind of approach is known as After The Event (ATE) cover, where assistance is offered or solicited following an accident/injury. Since the reforms, if there’s not much chance of success these providers tend to back away quite quickly rather than fight your corner and get you what you might deserve, leaving you on your own. LEGAL EXPENSES COVER A better alternative to 'No Win No Fee' is something known as Before The Event (BTE) cover. Usually called Legal Expenses cover, this is arranged in advance (to run alongside your motor insurance). Chris Knott Insurance offers this protection which is designed to pay your legal costs & expenses to pursue a claim. We have taken care to additionally ensure that our Legal Expenses offering guarantees that there will be NO deduction at all for costs from any compensation award. I thought it might be useful to see these two very different approaches operating in stark monetary terms. So here goes… If using a 'No Win No Fee' type firm (ATE) an injury award of just £8,000 could see a fee of 25% (£2,000) being payable for success, reducing your payout to £6,000. In comparison, that £2,000 would buy you 80 years’ worth of BTE cover with Chris Knott Insurance (charged at £25 for the year) and you’d get to keep 100% of your award. For the best service and to guarantee you keep 100% of your injury award it really does make sound financial sense to arrange cover in advance, just in case. To add (BTE) Legal Expenses Cover to your Chris Knott policy at the next renewal please call 0800 917 2274 or 01424 200477. PLEASE BE ASSURED TOO THAT WE NEVER PASS ON ANY DETAILS TO ANYONE FOR THE PURPOSES OF PESTERING CUSTOMERS TO CLAIM FOR INJURIES. We only share data as necessary to directly service your cover and to process any claims you instigate. best, Nick PS. Don't forget to call us if your car insurance is due in the coming months as we have prizes available until the end of the year. Details of this month's prize draw have previously been posted to the site.

Thanks guys & gals!" evom3z4, Z4 forum "Been with my insurer since time began. All of a sudden, it was time for me to 'worry dear' - Mountuning my ST suddenly caused issues for them - had to explain e.v.e.r.y. word - 'No, it's an ABI code, not an API code - and no the code doesn't increase performance itself, it's.....' Spoke to Rebecca at Chris Knott - polite, knowledgable, professional. 5 minute call, fully insured, nice amount of money saved too - STOC membership back quite a few times over. Chris Knott - money saved, no crawling over broken glass required. Nice one, thank you." 340bhp, FiestaSTOC.com "Pleasing to speak to a fellow human being at Chris Knott. Tesco renewal invite at £250 prompted a wee check with the meercats with a range generally well below this. Phoned Tesco to ask if they could do anything but sadly & unfortunately no. After reading the Forum comments tried Chris Knott who came up with quote around £185 all in with £100 XS so have made the switch." kingfisher4, Dacia Forum "So much easier to deal with, I even took out a multicar policy. everything is set out and clear as day with a very polite team on the phone."

The staff even stayed late to call me back so I could get temporary insurance to pick the car up tonight - otherwise we would have had to delay picking the car up. Can't believe how good they are!" Brycie, VWAudiForum "After literally going grey looking at the premiums, I gave Chris Knott a call. Martin was excellent and managed to undercut my lowest quote by a shed load!

I shall be returning when the wife's insurance is due." Shaun Perkes, Facebook

It has come to our attention that some forum members think we are linked with one of the other insurance providers out there because a name similar to ours appears against transactions on their bank statements. So we wanted to make it clear, for the avoidance of doubt, that there is NO commercial relationship between us and any of the other providers on car club forums. Actually there is good natured competition between all the providers on the forums and we come across each other often. But we are all completely separate, so you should always call Chris Knott Insurance for a quote and shouldn't think you've heard our quote just because you've called one of the other firms. Chris Knott's quoteline is 0800 917 2274 / 01424 200477. Please quote your unique club code to make sure you receive the full benefit.

Home Insurance for club members Though we're well known as a provider of car insurance to car club/forum members and that's the reason we're working with this forum, Chris Knott does have good rates for Home Insurance too. You'll receive the usual Chris Knott benefits, such as personal service, independent expert advice, ongoing support, ease of access, etc for your home insurance when you ask us to quote. We're currently signing up 40% of Home Insurance quotes, so it really is worth giving us a call for a quote on your buildings and/or contents cover when it falls due. Call our Home Insurance team on 0800 917 2274 (or 01424 200477) and find out how much you could save by switching to Chris Knott. Our Home Insurance Manager gets particularly excited when he hears that a customer has their cover with their bank/building society as he knows he can normally save them quite a bit more money. There are extra discounts for existing clients too - £20 OFF when you switch to Chris Knott Home Insurance if you have one car insured with us, £50 OFF if you have more than one car with us. So make sure you call us for a quote when the time comes and remember - the Chris Knott Club scheme is not just for cars! ************************ HOME Insurance Testimonial: "I would recommend you speak to Chris Knott for other types of insurance too.

How to get the best deal on GAP Insurance Well, we're at September again and the new MY64 registrations will soon be appearing on our roads. If you're purchasing a new or used car (up to 8 years old) in the coming months please remember that you can get GAP Insurance through Chris Knott and probably at a fraction of the cost the dealer will charge. In fact, an episode of BBC's Rip-Off Britain focused on GAP and highlighted that car buyers should check that they're not being charged over the odds for the cover. See the video and good advice featured here - http://www.chrisknott.co.uk/news/why-people-should-buy-GAP-insurance-from-brokers.html To make sure you're not being overcharged for GAP why not get a comparative quote for Chris Knott GAP Insurance. Chances are we'll save you hundreds of pounds as these people found out: "Got my GAP insurance through Chris Knott, half my dealers quote, will definitely approach them for a quote when my car insurance is due too. Having the support through Chris Knott and the club gives a good feeling." Lobo, Yeti Owners Club "I looked at the GAP cover which they advertised on the forum recently, and adding that to my car insurance cost came in only slightly higher than my existing policy.... So now my baby is fully insured, the value is protected for 3 years in case of total loss, and all modifications are included at like for like cover. Yes I'm happy, and once again the forum has not only saved me money, but delivered peace of mind and security." CR4ZYHORSE, Juke Owners Group "Just wanted to say thanks to Chris Knott for providing my GAP cover - dealer quote £300... Chris Knott £112. This is on a New Juke Tekna, upgraded alloys, spoiler." unrealuk, Juke Owners Group "Thanks for the GAP Insurance info, just took it out £83.....Dealer wanted £399." g1smo, Juke Owners Group HOW TO GET A GAP INSURANCE QUOTE You can call us for a GAP quote on 0800 917 2274 or 01424 200477 and follow the 'car' options or get a quote online at https://www.chrisknott.co.uk/GAP CAR INSURANCE DUE IN SEPTEMBER? Remember too that during September if you ask us for a car insurance quote you will be entered into our draw to WIN a Karcher Car Pressure Washer and there'll be another prize for each of the remaining months of the year too (see a previous forum post for details). Best regards, Nick

Our rates are currently the best that they've been for a long time and we know they have to speak for themselves but this is an extra incentive for you to pick up the phone. We look forward to talking to you. best, Nick ******************************************* LATEST FEEDBACK ON CHRIS KNOTT INSURANCE "Just want to say a huge thanks for the service you guys have provided so far. The exhaust mod has been added free of charge. Really pleased with how you operate." raymondbowon, FocusSTOC.com "Very impressed with the service and for beating my renewal quote by a healthy margin.

Avre, Dacia Forum ******************************************* Our standard competition rules are here : http://www.chrisknott.co.uk/competition/

Hi, just to let you know I'm away for a couple of weeks so I won't be able to reply to posts or PMs but I'll be back on 18/8. In the meantime, please continue to call us for quotes. We've had a brilliant July and it's all down to car club/forum members like you picking up the phone. Online v Phone We know many of you like to get your quotes online but we're able to beat the price comparison sites if we can talk to you - we get a better feel for you over the phone and we can ask different questions to manually decide whether you're a good risk to take on and at what price. This benefits you far more than a simple "computer says yes, computer says no" scenario. Pick up the phone and ask us to quote (Tel: 0800 917 2274 or 01424 200477) - you'll be glad you did when we beat your best quote (which we currently do for almost 50% of all callers). Multi-car households If you have multi-car policies with the likes of Admiral, we can compete with these too. Those companies typically only have their own products to sell. We have access to a whole range of insurers and can pick the most appropriate one for each individual vehicle but still give you the benefit of a single renewal date and a single point of contact - call Chris Knott Insurance for your quote today. Past experience It may be that you've asked us to quote in the past and we weren't able to help. If that's the case it's definitely worth calling us again when your renewal falls due. With postcode relaxations and changes to driver age requirements in the last 12 months there's a good chance that we've dealt with whatever was preventing us from winning your business last time. And if price was the issue, please don't miss out on this one thing - we currently have insurers queuing up at our door for good, clean car club/forum member drivers and they'll support us in doing whatever it takes to win the right cases. You all know what insurance is like. Today's low rates may start to rise again tomorrow. Let's both make hay while the sun shines! Give us a call on 0800 917 2274 / 01424 200477 and mention this forum to see how much we can save you. See you in a couple of weeks. best regards, Nick ************************** More feedback found this week... "CK have pulled out all of the stops to give me a great price this year! Well made up!"

If you've had a better quote we can use it to negotiate with the insurer for you.

Hi, I just wanted to say hello and to let you know that we're here to help you with your insurance related questions. If we can give you a quote as a result, great! Please see our launch post on the forum - http://www.alfadriver.com/forum/index.php/topic/4783-alfadriver-insurance-scheme-with-chris-knott-0800-917-2274/ best regards, Nick Chris Knott Insurance

Well the title says it all really - following the success of our online 'quote and buy' system for Chris Knott Breakdown Cover we've placed our popular 3-year GAP Cover online too. GAP Insurance QUOTE link: https://www.chrisknott.co.uk/GAP What is GAP? In the event of a total loss claim (a write-off), Chris Knott GAP Cover pays the difference between your motor insurer's settlement amount and the original net invoice selling price or the finance early repayment figure (whichever is the greater). Effectively this cover enables you to remove depreciation from any total loss claim in the next 3 years and ensures you really can buy a better replacement. This is suitable for the newer cars in your household, not necessarily the car that inspired you to join this forum. You can arrange cover today on any car you've purchased in the last 90 days and if the vehicle is less than 8 years old with less than 80,000 miles on the clock. You are still welcome to call us on 0800 917 2274 but if you'd prefer to do it all online please visit https://www.chrisknott.co.uk/GAP Don't forget we're here for your car insurance too! best regards, Nick

If you're looking for competitive Alfa Romeo insurance, high service levels and all the ongoing support you need, we've got some great news for you. CHRIS KNOTT INSURANCE now offers AlfaDriver members all of the above and more. We love Alfa enthusiasts because you really look after your cars and we've looked after the UK's main Alfa clubs for the last 30 years. Simply call FREE on 0800 917 2274 (or 01424 200477 for mobiles) quoting CODE: ALD-170 to find the right price and cover combination. ********************************************************* RECENT FEEDBACK Here's what members have said about us recently on some of the other Alfa Romeo forums we work with: "I can highly recommend these folks, the quotes blew away my renewals by miles. Got a steal on the breakdown cover too. Cheers." duemila, AlfaOwner.com "Just had a nice conversation with Tabitha getting a quote for this year, after being with main stream insurers up until now. As I'm looking at some modifications I wanted a flexible policy and CKI came up trumps. What a brilliant deal, massively cheaper than anyone else, but with more cover. Couldn't be happier!" Dunk Veloce, Alfa Romeo OC "Following a rather lovely chat with Kim at Chris Knott, I have bought their insurance product and their breakdown cover. This is where customer service comes in. Kim was thorough and patient, she got a quote that was impressive and at no time did I feel I was being processed. All in all, my comprehensive policy with unlimited mileage, a long list of common modifications and mod values covered, came to £250. I added the £59.50 breakdown cover and I'm a happy camper." AndyMac, AlfaOwner.com ********************************************************* We'd like to get involved on this forum and be available for general insurance comment too. If you're not sure about any element of our offering, please just ask - we're looking forward to talking to you. For your free car insurance quote, call Chris Knotts on 0800 917 2274 (or 01424 200477 for mobiles) quoting CODE: ALD-170 and find out how much you could save. Of course, we have our own set of criteria, handed down by the insurers on our panel, so we won't be the best for everyone. If we can't help you it's not because we don't want to. However, if you fit our scheme we'll work hard on your behalf to negotiate the best deal with insurers and that sometimes involves using an alternative quote as ammo to get them to budge. We only quote over the phone as we've found online forms are never as good as the human touch. When you call us we get a better feel for you as a risk and this results in a better quote for you - we currently sign up one in every 2 Alfa enquiries. Will the next one be you? Will you be saying what this happy customer said? "Just to say - used these today to insure both my cars, smashed the price on the Seat and came in far cheaper on the Merc even through the same underwriter. Very impressed." vaughant, SeatCupra.net. Aside from the car insurance we you'll also gain access to Chris Knott's other motoring products - Breakdown Cover and GAP Insurance, together with our Home Insurance offers.
