Hi Nick10,

We do also provide bike insurance but are not able to provide online comparison quotes like we do for car, home and travel insurance. Unfortunately the insurance companies want to treat each potential bike insurance client as a unique case to measure their risk. There is an option on our website where you can ask for motorcycle insurance quotes. Our experts will than contact you with some questions and provide you with the quotes by email in return.
 
Thank you for showing interest in our Insurance Comparison Site, we hope to impress you more with regards to car, home and travel insurance.

Kind regards,
InsureMe.ae team.

  • If you want to go FASTER, Take it to the TRACK !!

Only limited to 5 insurers and I don't see the comparison between the market leaders ie ADNIC, Orient, OIC, AXA, RSA etc. These brand names give more additional beneficial covers than the mentioned insurers. I did a test quote the premium works out to be the same as offered by the top market insurers. Try RAK Bank for motor quote you will be surprised what covers they can offer at competitive premiums.

Hi Maddogdave,

We deal with more insurance companies than you mention and only show the best deals that match the customer's requirements. There are more than 50 insurance companies in the UAE and although we don't deal with all of them yet, we are expanding and will add more overtime. The whole idea of the comparison site is to prevent customers the hassle of shopping around. That's what we do, we simply pass on the best deals and let the customer make their own choice. Same for the additional cover, we give the options and the customer makes the choice if he/she wants to add them or not. We are dealing with some of the market leaders as well (in reply to manual inquiries) though some are not that keen to be shown on our site which simply means that they don't like that we are trying to make the insurance market more transparent.   

In Europe and the USA it has been proven that comparison websites serve a big share of the market because of the convenience to compare and select on just one website (different insurance products and different insurance companies). The more clients they started to serve, the stronger their buying power became towards the insurance companies. This is what we are striving for as well so we can pass on the best deals to our clients.

Hello people,

I just wanted to post a message regarding a few things I have read in this blogg  :)

Firstly, my partner & I used Insureme.ae to get insurance quotes for our car Audi A5 2010. We were pleasantly surprised that you generated instant quotes - but then discovered that they were 'INDICATIVE' quotes. As we all know, 'INDICATIVE' quotes are not the exact quotes, and also I did not recognise any of the insurance companies that you suggested. PLUS only 2 of your companies were able to offer insurance!

The lack in confidence led us to Google in search for a different insurance web service.   

After searching 'Car insurance Comparison UAE', we saw a video for a company called www.pricefinder.ae and proceeded to their site where we complete a new car insurance quote form. Although the quoting process in not instant, we received notification that our quotes were ready to be viewed in less than 30 minutes! These were exact, real time quotes that were actually over 10% more cost effective.

If you need car insurance in Dubai or Abu Dhabi we had a good experience with pricefinder.ae.

@maddogdave our pricefinder policy was taken out with AXA – possibly the biggest name in the market!  ;D

Hi Maddogdave.

See my post above regarding my experiences with online insurance comparison in the UAE. A pleasant alternative is available if you still need insurance.

Or you could try the TAKAFUL website. worked out cheapest for me and lets be honest, do you really think that if a local runs into you being insured will be the remotest help.

Dear Sophie,

Thank you for trying the Insureme.ae insurance comparison website. I'm very sorry that you felt misled after you reached the "indicative" premium amount. Reality is that after the "indicative" premium you were asked to choose additional cover. Depending on the additional cover the final quotation is shown. You than click the select button and the indicative premium changes to the final and fixed premium amount. We offer total transparency and convenience.

The insurance companies that offered a quote for your Audi are local as well as international insurance companies and might not been known in your book but are reliable, official and recognized insurance companies as well....and would probably have offered more value for money than you current deal.   

We appreciate that you tried our site and do take your experience serious for further improvement.

Kind regards,
InsureMe.ae team.

Ok so I have tried both pricefinder and Insureme.ae. My experience was simple! Insureme.ae was SO much better, easier to use better rates quoted, and the BEST part was the CONVENIENCE of purchasing my insurance ONLINE on the SPOT! I have been in Dubai for a while now, and personally I am fed up with having to deal with people over the phone or running around. The EASE of being able to get the BEST rates ONLINE INSTANTLY and PURCHASE them is PERFECT and welcome with LOVING OPEN ARMS! :)

Frankly speaking I think within a short due course they will have more vehicles covered and MORE Insurance companies on board, that is natural... This is what the market needed and its here, lets embrace it, I DID & I LOVE IT!

;)
Cheers

I thought I had screwed up...

I tried to buy through Insureme about 2 months ago for my new car....did not work...erm...was not yet live hehe :)

HSBC called me two weeks ago regarding renewal of my old car and motorbike.

I told them to call me back on the Sunday....not Monday....I am very busy and I have  time schedules...plus I had to get the car registered and leave for summer vacation.

I tried insureme again, got an instant quote (I was still overseas), got an email for the quote for the motorbike.

Had it paid by credit card..arrived Saturday night from a trip, had the vehichles reregistered and left two days later.

When HSBC called on Monday....not the Sunday...I was miffed....

So ease of use and speed was great.

after reading the posts I have checked price finder....

Not sure when they will send the quote....will let you know if the price was better....easy to use....but I still would not have my insurance when I wanted it.......and have to go through the entire procedure again to get it...I have used price comparison sites in Europe and they worked fine and did what they were supposed to do...


Compare and close in one sitting..

Hello people, me again.

Thank you insureme for your reply.

I gave you the benefit of the doubt & returned to your site to get a quote on my car that is due for a 'renew' in August. The car is a BMW 3 series - nice & simple & very common in this region, so no worries I thought.

So,

Can you please explain to me WHY if I am 27 & been driving for 8 years - you are only able to give me 1 quote out of 5, for a seemingly popular car. That is not what insurance comparison is about. That quote was also over AED5000 which is extortionate given that the value of the car is only AED60,000.

Needless to say, I went to pricefinder.ae where I submitted the same information & got 5 complete quotes, one of which was less than AED3,000 and with AXA again. I agree that I needed to wait 40 minutes before the quotes were in my inbox, but for AED2000 extra in my bank, it was worth it.

Thanks for trying to convince me, but maybe next time.

Hello Sophie,

Thank you for visiting our InsureMe.ae website again and giving it another try.

We have been doing the same test based on the details you provided about your car and yourself…. and received 4 quotes instantly with prices far below what you think is such a great deal with the other website. Actually our cheapest deal is almost half of that.

What we’ve noticed is that you requested “agency repair”. There are not many insurance companies in the UAE that offer “agency repair” for cars older than 6 year. This is why the insurance companies we currently deal with offer little choice for some cars when you choose "agency repair". We advise you to give it another try and go for the "non agency repair" option, you will be amazed about the price difference.

Of course we respect your choice and this is why we have a hotline where customers can always request quotes from insurance companies not currently listed as well for cases were we offer little choice. This way InsureMe.ae captures the best of two Worlds (online and offline inquiries). 
 
For the majority I would think that a quick and smart online process is preferred. It can be done anytime, anywhere 24/7.
 
We invite all Petrolheads members to give InsureMe.ae a try ….  you will be pleasantly surprised.
