Default Volvo Car Insurance Web Site?

Has anyone recently managed to get a quote from their website?
I tried last night and again this morning.
Got as far as filling out all my details and that of the additional driver, clicked next and that was as far as I got, then a message: Sorry for the inconvenience, etc.

I hate trying to get a quote on the telephone, as it is a long winded process.

Don't bother... twice the price of several mainline insurers for me!
DirectLine half their price, hence went with them.

I have a good quote from Direct Line, just wanted to compare.
Have been with LV for years, but they are now getting expensive.

I've just had an amazing price from Hastings Direct (Premiere).
No voluntary or compulsory excesses involved.
Going via their own website was a little cheaper than the rodent-based quote.

Not for me, they quote more than twice the amount that Direct Line are offering and £337.42 more than my current insurer LV.

I filled in the online quote form a couple of weeks back but because I have Polestar, I was advised to ring for a quote.

I was surprised that the modification section didn’t list Polestar and the section on Trackers didn’t give the option to specify VOC.

In the end I didn’t ring up as I had a quote from Saga for £268 which will stay at that price for the next two renewals (unless anything changes in my circumstances).

My renewal quote from Aviva went from £275 to £311, so I have changed to Saga!

Exactly the same experience as Coco pops and exactly the same outcome
