Motor Insurance De-tariff - Is it Cheaper?

[Nicholasng925]

any recommended insurance agent around Shah Alam? need to renew soon before December

I’ve no idea. As others have mentioned, walk-in customers get to enjoy 10% rebates off the premium. I don’t go through any agent neither, I’m a walk-in customer :proud:

Just an example bro. I’m not sure what’s the exact loading rates but you get the idea. Probably it’s worth shopping around, hopefully to get a lower loading then. If no insurer wants to bear your vehicle’s risk due to its old age, last resort will then be MMIP (min loading rate for MMIP will be 50%).

Oh! ok, I have been through it, from 10%, 15% now 20%. The main problem actually is most don't want them under comprehensive 1st party insurance. They ask you to take 3rd. party with PA or some other crap that amounts back to 1st party price......lol

If you take comprehensive 1st party insurance, the price will definitely be higher than 3rd party policy with PA and other riders. Up to this point, it's still unclear how most general insurance companies will price their motor premiums, so I guess just have to wait and see.

I'm optimistic that some companies will be able to offer better packages for higher risk profile cars (such as ours - highly modified, old high performance vehicles) than others. Just need to shop around. In the near future, I foresee comparison platforms (such as Ringgitplus and iMoney for personal finance) to emerge as well for insurance products.

Nope, I went to another company and insist on 1st party....

i thought that has been the case all these years?

It has always been the case, just that now the premium pricing is more risk-based rather than with tariff.

I thought this has been applied since ages.

Before this, the insurance only covered for the car. But starting last July, it include car + risk of the driver.

And after asking some of my friends, their insurance tariff increase around 150 to 200 from previous years.

I thought last time was purely based on car market value and age only, no?

Oh! one more thing, the car insured amount is minimum RM10k. I insured with 3 insurance companies, all also minimum is RM10k, means my insurance premium for as long as I keep them will never change. Only can go up if loading goes up.....

Nowadays ex5 kind of rojak.
