How can I change car insurance?

Many people are reluctant to change car insurance. The main reason for this is that many people think that changing auto insurance takes a lot of time. Yet changing often turns out to be easier than most people think, and you can sometimes save a lot of money as a result.

How do I compare car insurance?

This page shows how to switch car insurance in a few easy steps. Through alpina.nl you can very easily compare car insurance. All you need to make a calculation is your license plate number, your accumulated claim-free years and your zip code and house number.

Car insurance change?

The first thing to consider is how you are currently insured. The basic coverage in auto insurance is third-party coverage. This is compulsory coverage with the lowest premium. With this, in case of an accident, only the damage you cause with your car to third parties will be compensated. The damage to your own car will not be compensated.

With limited casco coverage, in addition to the third-party coverage, damage to your own car is also compensated in the event of fire, storm, theft and broken windows, among other things. Damage you cause to your own car, for example in a collision, is not covered.

Most new cars are all-risk insured. This is the most comprehensive coverage. Everything that is covered under limited hull coverage is also covered under all-risk coverage, including all damage to your own car.

Once you have determined which coverage is the best option for you, you can start comparing car insurance through alpina.nl By just entering your license plate number, the details of the car will be retrieved. No need to look up the new value or weight of the car yourself. After entering your zip code, house number, date of birth and the number of accrued claim-free years you will enter the comparator. Select the desired coverage and immediately see how much you can save.

The final step is to purchase your car insurance. Your new car insurance can take effect on the date your old insurance is terminated.
Alpina can take care of canceling your current insurance.

Changing car insurance: how does it work?

Step 1 - How are you insured now?

Most new cars are All Risk insured. Older cars are WA or WA limited casco insured. The WA limited casco insurance is the most expensive, but also the most comprehensive. In case of an accident, your insurer pays for the damage to the other party and to your own car. The WA car insurance only pays for damage to the other party. The WA limited casco is a form of insurance that is slightly more comprehensive than the WA insurance. In the WA limited casco there is for example also a payment in case of storm damage, theft and collision with stray animals. To compare properly, you need to know what coverage you currently have. Also check right away what you pay per month.

Step 2 - Compare your car insurance policies.

Go to Alpina.nl and choose to compare car insurance. By entering your license plate number, the comparator already knows which car it is. You don't have to look up information such as new value and weight. After entering your postal code, house number, date of birth and the number of years without claims, you start the comparison. In the follow-up screens, you get a few more questions that you can answer in a moment. No need to dive into the paperwork. Choose your desired coverage and you'll see right away how much you can save compared to your current car insurance.

Step 3 - Close and the change is settled

The next and final step is to purchase the car insurance. Now it is just a matter of filling in your personal information and taking out the new insurance. The new car insurance takes effect on the termination date of the old insurance. We can take care of the termination of your current car insurance. With our cancellation service , we can ensure that the insurance policies do not overlap or prevent you from being temporarily uninsured. So the changing is done properly.

Save hundreds of euros within three steps

The most expensive third-party insurance can be hundreds of euros more expensive than the cheapest. This difference is not reflected in the policy conditions. The conditions hardly differ between insurers. Even if you have WA limited casco or WA insurance, you are missing out on a lot of money if you do not change. The differences between car insurances are very large.
