Guest NeilSari Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Hi everyone Lookng forward to arriving in Perth later this year - still waiting for the visa. Both myself and my wife have built up several years of no claims bonus on car insurance. Will this be recognised in Oz? Any advice would be much appreciated.

Neil and Sari (Lancaster, UK) Certain insurance companies will recognise same. Western QBE have a scheme whereby they give you insurance against your no claims bonus.................. no matter how many prangs you have.......... and unfortunately we have had more than our fair share in recent years for whatever reason.............. our no claims bonus is still intact. We have used several insurance companies throughout the last 20 years........... all of which were okay.............. but we find Western QBE to be the best; so much so we have transferred all 5 cars over to them. When we first arrived the RAC here in Perth recognised my no claims bonus with Garret, Son and Flowerdew which was issued in Preston, Lancashire. RAC were very good and we insured everything with them......... cars, house and contents etc for well over 10 years................... but since we found QBE to be more cost effective.

Guest miamunchkin Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 My partner and I tried every insurance company in Perth to start off with and a few recognise your no claims, but only give you a certain percentage discount as a reflection of this. We eventually insured with Police and Nurses Credit Society who gave me a full 65% discount (equivalent of 5 years no claims). Once you have a recognised percentage discount, you can change if you find a cheaper option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Hyday-k Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 What requirements are needed when you have a car? Do they have car tax? and is car insurance similarly priced to the UK? Is it more or less expensive to run a car in QLD? Thanks Mel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
