Default Insurance

What does everyone here pay nowadays? Last year I paid $1281 for the entire year but I only insure for 6months so i pay half of that and get a check for the difference in the mail.

I heard that insurance premiums went up for this year so i was wondering how much I should expect it to go up? So if u wanna share what u guys are paying....it'd be a big help. Thanks!

If you're under 25, you'll pay about double what over 25 would pay so you should get numbers from those in your age bracket.

about 2400/year. I had an accident 2 years ago that is why. I would normally down to 1200/year without that accident. I am over 25 and with a group insurance company. I think if you belong to a univ alumni Meloche will give you the best rates I find.

hmm, not that I know of. I didn't hear about any insurance hike. I think you guys in Edmonton are getting ripped off.

Sometimes I make the wrong assumption based on insufficient info. Your screen name suggested to me that you are under 25. I am over 25 (by a long shot), clean driving record, group rate through work and I pay just over $1000.00 per year (500 deductable). As you know, I drive year round so no reduction for storage.

My registration is $1200, with a $700 deductible. I have a package policy, for $221 per year. This ups the liability, $200 deductible, and total lose package. If I smack it up, I will get replacement value, less tire wear and battery.

So I would pay $200, get a new car, if it was written off.
