I have been with Bikmo for 2 years but this year they went with a 30% increase and I haven't ever made a claim. Time to move - who is good for bike insurance (a road bike and a mountain bike)

I've been with Yellow Jersey the past couple of years. Significantly  cheaper than Bikmo.

I just use decent house insurance. Back with M&S now their policy has gone back to what it was before and their prices have come down a bit. Used to be with Pedalcover, but they got bought out, and I had a real pain when having to claim (the only time I've ever claimed on house insurance in 30 years).

Hmm just did a quote with yellow jersey and it's come out at £818 .... For what I believe is the same cover

M&S are no longer offering home insurance, we had a letter telling us a couple of weeks ago as ours is due in October. So I'll be looking for someone new soon.

I really don't get insurance, I've 2 eb's and 2 norms and I'm paying half what you were quoted.

It's weird. I moved house and my van insurance went up £150, about 50%, identical other than is no longer parked on the road so I'd have thought lower risk🤷

My house insurance went up by about £10, or 0.3% despite now living in a bigger and more expensive house with extra things which could cause problems like gas

Wow. I have a house, it's contents and 5 bikes covered for about a quarter of that.. with the car its still less! (Admiral, but previous years Sheilas Wheels, LVE.. etc, whatever gives the best quote on comparison sites.)

LV 

They're brilliant to deal with and have been cheaper than comparison websites for me.
