SLEEMAN Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 well would have thought you would that would be covered by the type of use the car is used, you know socially, domestic etc. if you were using it as business you would have to admit it.

JoeyMk6 Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 how much would the insurance go up for my escort if i was to say my job was a taxi driver ? ( not using the escort before anyone asks ) Not sure by how much but it will go up, Apparently being a professional driver (which counts for nothing) means you will be tired from driving all day and more of a risk... lol.

SLEEMAN Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 really?? i thought being a professional driver means you have more experience on the roads! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawdreamer Posted November 2, 2010 Share Posted November 2, 2010 really?? i thought being a professional driver means you have more experience on the roads! or that you spend more time on the road and are therefore pushing the odds of a vehicle related accident more than the average driver. insurance companies see what can cost them first then what likely wont second.

Craig855S Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 try a quote on comparethemarket.com or something? quote 1, joe bloggs who is a taxi driverquote 2, joe bloggs who does A.N.Other job but has the same no claims, date of birth, postcode etc... I'm not sure what to classify myself as when asked for "occupation" I always say "aeronautical engineer" instead of "military" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamGTR Posted November 8, 2010 Share Posted November 8, 2010 Check of that guy off GMTV, he has a "job picker" that is basically a legalish way to describe your job differently and it compares how much your quotes would go down if yuou desacribed your occupation differently.
