Cheap taxi insurance if you part of TDORA

Wouldn't suit you John..............you'd be 3 hours doing 1 jammer with all the talking and internetting you do...

I was looking into getting a proper upholstery steam dry cleaning unit .With all the Suitability changes how long before dirty seats will fail and how long before suitability becomes part of all NCTs .20 or 30 yoyo to clean seats with drivers coming to you .Nice little earner for the semi involved taxi driver .

Thanks for the tip John, Oh by the way its too late for you I'm starting this today

If they were basically almost dry after the clean, you'd be on to something.The crowd I used last time left the seats so wet that I was off work for 2 days.

I looked at a DRY cleaning unit nearly 3K plus u had to use cleaning fluids .You would need to be getting 30 per job at least .If I was doing it it would be vanity only cleaning seats and headliners not interested in cleaning puke .

Dirty seats are already a suitability fail...

Seeing as it cost me 4 ton in lost wages,30 sounds cheap

Renewal quote with current insurer, €3030. Zego €1760, have to clarify if it includes NCDP. Work cover and social domestic are covered,(social domestic is a legal rerquirement for all policies). Not covered to drive any other car, even a rental yoke if you are off the road, insurance not transferable, breakdown tow not currently available, but they ,are working on providing same. Finance available with 15% up front and 11% simple interest on the balance over 9 months. Your NCD stays with you, and you have to be with a traditional despatcher. They may, in the future introduce a 2 tier type of policy as they have for say, Deliveroo in the UK, whereby you have your social domestic quote, and then your hourly work insurance clocks on/off as you log on/off to the system

Was asked had I any claims against anothe driver, and he confirmed that there are 3 categories of driver for initial premium quote. 1. Driver with no claims, 2. Driver with an accident not his fault, and claimed from other party who's insurance paid up.3. Driver who claimed for an "own fault" accident. In my case, being category 2, he said that it didn't affect my premium "that much".

I believe that category 2 caused my current insurance to go from €2500 to €3000 upon renewal in 2018

Just turn the engine on, blast the heat and they’ll be dry in about 4 hours

Highest item for fail is seat covers as per their list in the waiting room. Know a guy who failed in a 171 Suberb, because his seat cover was torn, even though he had pristine original seats underneath. If he had his seats covered in a cheap new set of covers on the day of the test he was told that he would have passed.

Does it depend on who you get,or are they all pricks?

^^^^BS that quote is similar to my current AXA policy quote.I have no bonus protection and it's not comprehensive.Break down cover is removed.Policy is only transferable with a phonecall to AXA.My wife went on my policy recently for no extra charge.

I'd say anyone could get that Zego policy without being aligned to a dispatcher.

I suppose the best thing you could do is use it as a bargaining tool to get a better deal off your current insurer.
