COLES to Sell Car Insurance

[bobthebilda]

The triple discount (12 cents per litre) is available for all car insurance products they sell. So for my car, the cheapest option available is for third party property damage at $135. Thus i then become eligible to purchase 150 litres per month at 12 cents per litre off (8 cents a litre more than with docket alone). 150 litres at 8 cents=$12 per month =$144 per year. I make $9 by taking out insurance.

Coles Insurance interesting results.
$350 more expensive for the Ute I am getting will be insured with AAMI or CGU and $400 more expensive for my wife's 2008 Fiesta insured with Bingle.

Small thing but it is Wesfarmers not Westfarmers.

Its all part of the "birth to grave" customer retention strategy, they sell the lemons, now they want to insure the lemons, and soon they will be buying Holdens, so they can make the lemons.

NRMA has just quoted 952 no under 25's for comprehensive and Coles insurance 746 includes my under 25 son or 644 without but still includes an occasional driver. Quote will come down to 612 with my staff discount plus the triple discount on fuel once a month. I have 4 policies with them and even if I remove that one it will be worth changing. When I have time I will check the other policies and see if I can save some more.
