ReplyDeleteDo not be penny wise, pound foolish.
ReplyDeleteCompare also the normal excess, and the windscreen excess.
Ntuc Income is giving Zero Excess for windscreen now.
ReplyDeleteSo look like $618 against $599, Income may be a better deal.
The other thing to look at is additional excess for young drivers and inexperience drivers.
Many who have young adult children starting to drive are caught mostly by this young driver excess that can range from $1000 to $3500 or more.
Do look into such excess. Many are simply not aware of these.
A plan is not good only on the premium. It can be very different when one meet with an accident claim and it will then give you a big surprise.
