I think I've shared the story here before ...Yes, they are ridiculous. I'm 33 with a good driving and insurance record. I imagine its partly based on my postcode and my age. Interestingly other personal factors like occupation don't seem to come into the quotes. They certainly are a factor in NZ.
A guy I know got an insurance quote, wondered why so high compared to other companies, so he gets another quote using the place next door (I.e. filled in an online quote once with his address, once with the house next door).
Turns out there was a SIGNIFICANT difference to the time of several hundred dollars. He rang the company to see what was going on and they wouldn't change it - even though he was a new resident there...
Sounds like the previous tenant had a black mark with that insurance company, so the premiums reflected it on the address.
He went with a different company
