A word of warning though; The Budget's Ian Smithson says "If we don't start to see modest price increases, then there could well be an unpleasant and sudden price hike. This will not be good for the industry's reputation or out customers." Insurers are beginning to show signs that they may not be able to continue to hold down prices for very much longer. Claims are accelerating. The average cost of accidental damage repair has risen, costing an additional 5% per year, despite the fact that there are fewer accidents. Claims for personal injury are rising fast and the cost of settling these is rising at around 12% per annum.
