    What is it with 123.ie?

    I've been on their site each day for the last few days and their quotes are changing daily by about €50 each time..

    First day was €300, second day was €350, third was €414, fourth day was €370, and now today it's €415!!

    What's their game?! That's a bit crazy changing the price each day by such a large amount.

    Quotes are valid for 30 days in most cases. So why go in and do the same thing 4 days in a row?

    I always go in initially and input a made-up name & mobile number because if I put in my real details they'll start ringing me. Also if I put in my real details straight away and the quote is huge, then they'll have me on record and I won't get a better price.

    So normally I go on a site, input details, and if I'm happy with the price I'll buy, but the day I was quoted €300 (which I was happy with) I have since forgotten the name I used!!

    Try Allianz, Liberty, No Nonsense, Chill and Britton Insurance. They all beat 123.ie in my case. I went with Liberty in the end...

    With insurance the best thing to do is get out the phone book and start ringing them all.
    I got 10% knocked off the best quote I got with liberty by just asking.

    I'm with Liberty as it is. Their policy has increased by €100 which is ridiculous.

    I'd stay away from 123.ie if I was you anyway. Take a look at their Terms of Business. They charge for every letter, any duplicates, whatever.

    Was in 2012 with 123.ie for my Toyota for 290 €, this year they want to take 956 €, online quote is about 600 €, it seems to be very arbitrary. What happened to them?
