If you buy a new vehicle from a dealer, they'll likely offer 'their' choice for insurance....but if you insist on a particular company, they should be able to oblige. Last truck we bought from Toyota....the salesman said he could only offer the dealer's insurance pick. When we declined and started to leave, he said, "okay, can do Viriyah".
Hi can you give me tel No & if they are open on Sundays ?
Many thanks for prompt reply

I 2nd on this, I bought my insurance with squires and will eventually switch all to squires.
Roong speaks very clear english and will explain everything to you.
I have to change my previous statement to dissatisfaction now, my policy was cancelled without notice, I thought I had PA insurance but had none. I was not notified by Squires or Roong about this. I had made a call about a question I had and was told to come and get a refund check.

Seems like the only insurance I had was the buddha amulet around my neck :shock:

I can not recommend Squires or Roong

Remember if your car / bike whatever is paid for private insurance is optional, you do not need private insurance to drive legally on the road, as long as you have the tax disk and book stamped it's legal to drive.

I have 1st level insurance on both my car and pickup but only cause I'm still paying them off, I will when they are paid off get 2ndl level insurance and value the car at what I think it's worth and also to protect myself of an accident with another car and they claim from me

well you didn't identify "personal insurance" but everyone who goes in to pay their vehicle tax has to produce the liability insurance certificate..

All I know is that "ASSETS INSURANCE" is the worst.
I experienced this myself.
After 3 years with them I had an accident then I realized my mistake having my car insurance with this company.
over 1 hour to arrive, poor service, and hard to claim.
Also long approval process, they took about 1 month approve the parts before start fixing my car.
Not anymore with this one and hope no one has to face this same thing I did.
