Like sometimes you call up and you get a shitty guy who tells you they won't touch you, then one time i rang up to put my mate on the policy for a road trip to byron bay. Got to talking with the guy and tried to sound very honest and mature with him, and they did it for free! despite the fact that he is younger and has a bad driving driving history (speeding etc.) The other time was when i was with a mate at the sydney motor show who wanted to get a quote for an imported GTR R32. We went up to the Shannon's guy (three car fanatic guys) and asked him about it and my friend was kind of joking around a bit and they just said straight out 'no' to him. He then asked what sort of cars they would insure him on and they just told him to go try another company! Even though he has only a minor speeding fine and is the same age as me. So yeah, i think they really try and do a mini-psychological profile on the driver when they call up to predict their likeliness in driving like a nut and making a claim. So if you guys call up, talk really responsibly and be honest with them and they might go easy on you....just a theory [Report message to a moderator]
