Re: quickest way to bc,canada
I agree entirely with the previous post about ICBC - we fell foul of this cartel monopoly over here as well. You need to provide all of your historical policy documents going back as far as you can and you need to provide a letter from each company in the exact format for these idiots to apply any no claims bonus. After 15 claim free years in the UK I managed to get only 10% over here and that was with a fight!!
Also - try not to get tied into the bank mortgage insurance (whoever the bank is) as you will be paying over the odds and also may not even be properly insured as they dont generally underwrite these policies until you make a claim. I am in financial services so may be able to help or point you in the right direction here if you want. We chose Vancouver Island - mid island (Ladysmith area) as it is geographically good and much cheaper then Victoria. We moved over here in August 2007 and we love it. |
