    Hibernian are stopping renewals of existing policies sometime this month - so you may still be able to get one last year with them.

    Other than that you can go to Aon Bikecare
    Contact the Bikecare Team at 1890777555 between 9.00am and 5.00pm Monday to Friday

    and 10.00 am to 2.00 pm on Saturdays (excluding Holiday Weekends)
    Or you could try Carole Nash but I'm not 100% certain to cover scooters, but phone them:

    Unfortuntely not :(
    Aon (who use Axa) and Carole Nash are the only two bike insurers. There are links to both in my earlier post.

    happy hunting,

    Since late last year Aon had switched from Hibernian (who were leaving PTW insurance market) to Axa (who were joining PTW insurance market).
    Aon are just an underwriter.

    tbh after reading one of your other posts I'm a bit pissed off to find you're an insurance cheat :mad:
    You've got a 180cc moped but you're telling the insurance company it's only 50cc - afaik that's insurance fraud.
    You should also have a full category A licence for a scooter that powerful - because it's not covered by the M category, and a full licence for riding it on the motorway.

    One of the main reasons Hibernian cited for pulling out of the PTW insurance market was provisional moped riders carrying pillions and crashing - and the pillion (who shouldn't be on the scooter) making huge personal injury claims.
    Maybe you don't care because the only impact you feel is the loss of Hibernians online renewal system - but insurance cheats cost everybody money, and Hibernian pulling out has cost all bikers.

    Read this post #2 above
    Basically, you only have two options, phone each of them for a quote:
    1) Aon
    2) Carole Nash

    The glasses don't matter :cool:

    he only has option 1 as carole nash only insure someone under 25 IF you have 4 years no claims. I thought another insurence company took over hibernains buisness like norwich union or someother company?...no???

    FFS - so you're basically stuck with Aon/Axa until then :(

    It was Axa - but afaik Axa don't deal directly with customers - you go through Aon who act as a 'broker'.

    It appears you misread my post - read it again ;)

    I'm sure we're all familiar with the correct procedure for a manouvre while driving, well here it is equated to the equivalent procedure for posting on boards:
    mirror -> signal -> mirror -> manouevre = read -> reply -> read -> post-reply

    causal :D

    Sorry abt that casual - i did read it wrong. And for the test it should be mirror, lifesaver, indicate, take position, lifesaver, turn... :D
