Re: ICBC car insurance quote - OMG
Have you looked at getting just basic (minimum coverage) from ICBC and getting your extended coverage from another supplier?
300 deductible is quite low as well, if you can do it go up to around 1000 and see what they quote. |

Thanks This was through a broker so I assume the stuff away from 'the basic' coverage was through other companies. I quite like the $300 deductible though - I thought hat was pretty good. I'm just going to allow $4000 for my insurance (as I may get a different compact car). It is what it is |
Re: ICBC car insurance quote - OMG
Just get the most basic insurance you can through ICBC, the insurance you need to be legal and then get the other stuff privately.

Re: ICBC car insurance quote - OMG
I hear from my son that car insurance is very reasonable in Regina SK.
Perhaps you all could move there and save a bundle on insurance and housing? |

Re: ICBC car insurance quote - OMG
We get only the most basic insurance from ICBC, then OH deals with Canada Direct by phone. We've done this for many years ........... and still get the best deal that way.
Mind you, OH does get the maximum reductions based on years of driving, no accidents, etc etc Check with the broker to see how the insurance cover is broken down. |

It is woefully inadequate unless your vehicle is worth nothing and you are prepared to make yourself bankrupt in the event of an at-fault accident. |

Just tell ICBC you want the basic legal requirements and get everything else privately. It is worth spending 30 minutes on the phone to the company I mentioned above getting a quote and comparing it to ICBC.
This is a screenshot of my extra private insurance. I saved $400 this year. So of I go through the broker they wiLL give me the cost of the compulsory coverage with icbc and then will find me the best price for the extras? |
