[QUOTE="jopar, post: 131114, member: 11712"] In theory it's ilegal for a insurance company to load an excees due to your diabetes... But as always insurance companies will have ways and means to get around this little legality... My insurance was due back in March, so I did the comparison via the net, it compared over 30 different companies... And the results made the mind boggle indeed :shock: Fully comprehensive insurance.. Range from the £195 (several choices of companies) right up to one that quoted £986 :shock: :shock: What it actually means, Every insurance company will know what type and who they are willing to insurance.. So they build their calcualting system to match creating a pricing system that loads the unwanted drivers... I had for a couple of years my oldest daughter as a named driver on my insurance, even when she was a learner, the load was resoable, extra £200 she was only 19-22 so pretty good... (for a 17L turbo engined car) we were quite shocked when my company quoted her for her first car... (smaller none turbo engine) £2000 which suspposed to have included discount due to being named on my insurance :shock: Needless to say she choose another company who offered the same protection (with out any discounts) for £1100..
