Consumers who are faced with rising car insurance premiums should take steps to reduce their premium, one expert has claimed.
Graeme Trudgill, technical and corporate affairs executive at the British Insurance Brokers' Association, explained that people who stick with the same car insurance firm are likely to face increased premiums year after year.
This means that people might be able to get a better deal by shopping around, he stated.
"If your insurance premium goes up then don't just accept it. Call your insurance broker and they will deal with a panel of many insurers and look around them all and find you the best deal, which will hopefully be a more competitive deal for you every year," he said.
A recent study conducted by the AA found that the average car insurance premium has increased in cost by around six per cent in the last year. The figure now stands at £682, the firm stated.
