they always increase your renewal quote!its nothing to do with having a tank in the back of ya van!!i dont and it is ALWAYS noticably more expensive than the cheap quote they "hook" you in with.its standard practice with insurance.

all car/van insurance has gone up a fair bit in the last 6 months or so though as well so even more important to change your van insurance every year unless they can match your cheapest quote! ;) ;D ;D

I have been with A-Plan for 3 years now, when i did have an accident they were great, got full value for my van as it was a write off and courtesy van straight away.

A-Plan can now provide a guaranteed courtesy van fitted with a water-fed pole system for up to 21 days in the event of a fault claim and your van is off road or not driveable  including repairs, or is stolen and not recovered The courtesy van is delivered to you with a full tank of fuel within 48 hours meaning you can carry on with your work with no down time.
 
Also the legal cover that A-plan provides will give you a courtesy van fitted with a water-fed pole system in the event of a non fault claim (i.e hit in the rear) for as long as it takes for your claim to be settled by the insurance company. Again this van will be delivered to you.
 
Brilliant cover and peace of mind.
 
- I have just renewed my insurance with them, worth speaking to the Manager, Chris Stone ( he will give you the best deal ) on 01993 841841. Just mention my name Darren Charman and I am sure he will give you a good deal.

Thanks
Darren
