Quotemehappy.com – New low cost online car insurance launches

London, UK (PRWEB) August 25, 2011

- Online service offering great deals for careful drivers

   •  Fully comprehensive car insurance, with courtesy car, windscreen cover and personal accident cover as standard
   •  Responds to growing number of consumers who want to buy and manage their insurance online

Careful drivers looking for a great deal on their car insurance can now visit Quotemehappy.com, a new low cost car insurance brand. Quotemehappy.com is specifically designed to offer low cost, fully comprehensive car insurance for careful drivers and is available already at http://www.quotemehappy.com and will be available exclusively shortly on price comparison site http://www.gocompare.com.

Quotemehappy.com keeps its costs as low as possible by operating online. This comprehensive online service allows drivers to generate a quote, get immediate cover, print their documents and manage their policies from a dedicated My Account area – putting customers in control of their insurance.

Premiums are also kept down as Quotemehappy.com is very clear about who it will and won’t insure. For example, it will not insure new drivers, those with older or more expensive cars or drivers who have had more than one at-fault claim in the last four years.

In order to qualify for a comprehensive quote, customers have to match certain criteria including:

   •      Be aged between 21 and 75
   •     Own a car that that is no more than 13 years old and is worth less than £40,000
   •     Have had no more than one at-fault claim in the last four years Marco Distefano, managing director of Quotemehappy.com, said: “We know that car insurance isn’t the most exciting item on the shopping list, but we also know that people want value for money – and that’s what Quotemehappy.com is all about. We offer careful drivers competitive prices and a quality product as well as the opportunity to serve themselves.”

He added: “But it doesn’t stop there. We’re trying to think differently about insurance. As our business evolves, we will be asking customers what they want from their car insurance to help shape the future of Quotemehappy.com products and services.”

Careful drivers have two ways to access Quotemehappy.com; they can buy direct from Quotemehappy.com and it will also be available shortly exclusively via price comparison site GoCompare.com shortly. Quotemehappy.com will be available from other price comparison sites later in the year.
