    Hi all, I was just wondering if anybody on here has or have used wicked quotes for insurance of their vehicle? As I am currently with them and am unsure whether I would need to contact wicked themselfs or equity red star (as they are the company actually providing the insurance-or underwriting it) to see how much it'd cost to change vehicle?
    Any advice or help would be appreciated

    Never heard of them but you usually need to contact the company you took the insurance through as they are the ones that sold you the insurance. The ones that underwrite the insurance are usually for the claims. Hope this helps. :-?
    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    It sounds like you are making a change to an existing policy, so the contact details you need should be on the insurance documents that you have. Also it's worth a look on comparison sites as sometimes it can be more cost effective to cancel, and take out a completely new policy.
    Orange ones are faster, but red ones are more comfortable!

    They wont cover me on the vehicle I have in mind until im 25

    I thought that if you cancel your policy and start a new one elsewhere that you would lose your no claims bonuses? Or is there a way to cheat it?

    You may lose the no-claims for this year but anything earned before the start of this policy should remain. Have a chat with an insurer that will cover you and see what they say about no-claims some of them can be surprisingly flexible. I use Carol Nash who for me have been very good, but then I am a mature rider with full no-claims. Essentially it is all about having a good look around and speaking with several insurers or brokers to find the best deal. I hope you find the cover you want.
