Some new analysis from us for Fair By Design... Highlights how same driver in same car tends to be quoted more for car insurance in more deprived and more ethnically diverse areas (as others such as Which? and Citizens Advice have previously highlighted). (1/3)

Fair By Design (@fairbydesign) 's Twitter Profile Photo

New report from Which? finds that many people experience at least one problem in their claims process. The research also found that insurers’ behaviour had a direct impact on customers’ physical/mental health with 31% saying insurers' actions made them feel more stressed.

Great to work with the fab team at Personal Finance Research Centre on this. And of course to hear directly from people on low incomes about what sort of payment methods would help them to pay for big bills like energy…

We know from our research that low-income consumers are disproportionately affected by higher car insurance premiums. Research conducted earlier this year with Personal Finance Research Centre showed that the car insurance poverty premium can be over £500 each year.
