Noticed your van insurance quote has gone up? Here’s why:

There’s something called “quote lag” in insurance.

This refers to the time between when you first get your quote and the start date (inception date) of your policy.

If that time gap becomes shorter, your insurance provider may increase the price. That’s because insurers sometimes see shorter quote lags as higher risk — which can result in a higher premium ⬆️


👉 Want to try for a lower price again?
You can try moving your start date further ahead to see if it brings your quote down 📅🔄
