Tescocompare.com still the best car insurance comparison site
According to Defaqto, and independent financial research company, Tescocompare.com is still the best car insurance comparison web site. Defaqto analyised 41 motor insurance comparison sites for functionality and usability features and it found that Tescocompare.com scored 77 per cent this time around. This follows Defaqto’s previous analysis in October 2007.
Managing Director at Tescocompare.com, Peter Dingle, commented: “Once again Tescocompare.com has come out on top and this time Defaqto compared more than twice the number of comparison sites. It is fantastic that our proposition has achieved independent recognition of leading the way forward for insurance comparison sites, especially in light of the recent FSA announcement. Tescocompare.com strongly focuses on giving consumers easy to use information to allow them to compare not just the price of a policy, but also the product features, to ensure they are getting the right cover for their needs.”
“Our customers also benefit from the fact that the price they are quoted on our site is the same if not cheaper than if they went to the insurer directly. We do not believe in making assumptions on behalf of our customers and hence the premium quoted will be the final price they end up paying for the selected policy.”
“We are delighted that Defaqto has recognised our work to put the consumer first. We will continue to work on our proposition to make sure our customers can make an informed decision on the cover they are purchasing.”
Everyone will have their preferred comparison web site but I think that you’d be stupid not to take half an hour, or an hour, out of your day to try a few of the car insurance comparison web sites and make a note of which insurers and prices you get back. Then you’ll really know which offers the cheapest car insurance for your needs.
