Proof of no claims

In news:43ecac85$0$3606$ snipped-for-privacy@ptn-nntp-reader04.plus.net, RoundSquare wrote something quite bizarre, possibly in an effort to confuddle the world. It went like so;

They cap it normally at around 5 years. Makes sense really.

Think of it this way, you get somewhere around 20% off for your first years NCB, then 10% for the second year, 10% per year for the third, fourth and fifth years

If you had 10 years NCB then your insurance would be free.

It's still a bugger that nobody recognises decades of claim-free driving in some way. I don't suppose you're that much less likely to have an accident after 20 years than you are after 10 years, but even so...

The message from "Pete M" contains these words:

I reckon they ought to be paying me by now.

Or mileage. I've got over 1.5 million miles of accident free driving which is equivalent to 125 years worth of average car driving mileage.

But you're like, 142 anyway though, aren't ya?

Through Saga and out of the other end!

there is somthing wierd/mischeivious about the way they calculate the bonus as well, if you have loading due to points/ convictions / age or other high risk then I don't think the bonus will deduct from that part of the premium, it only counts against the 'standard premium' what ever they call this. . I think I lost my bonus last year.. so I'm still waiting to see how much it costs me.. ( 2 accidents in < 5 years ) bugger !!
