Check for multi-car policies
Martin Lewis also mentioned several different hacks that could see you save money on car insurance.
If you are in a household with more than two cars it may be worth checking if a multi-car policy is cheaper.
Industry giants who offer cheaper multi-car policies include Admiral, Aviva, LV, Diamond and Elephant.
Other well-known names that offer discounts for more than one car include Axa, Privilege, Direct Line and Churchill.
To find the right policy for less, Martin also urged drivers to use at least two comparison sites.
Martin Lewis offers insurance advice
Martin Lewis returned last night on his Money Show Live, to share useful information on how to avoid nasty charges when it comes to insurance.
He urged Brits hoping to save cash to ensure they shop around and regularly compare quotes for insurance.
And he urged Brits to ask for a quote at least three weeks before their insurance renewal date.
The MSE took into account 18 million quotes and found on average there was a “sweet spot” that could see your bills dramatically slashed.
“If you are near your renewal, getting quotes three weeks before may half the cost,” Martin explained.
“It bottoms out on average at day 23, and then the prices just start to rise and rise and rise.”
“Everyone needs to get in their diary that 23 days before renewal because that’s the sweet spot.”
Bus fares frozen across England
Many bus companies and routes have capped their fares at £2 making getting around more affordable.
This had been due to rise to £2.50 but the Government announced they would keep fares down at £2 until the end next year.
The fare cap has helped cut bus fares in England outside London by 7.4% between June 2022 and June 2023, with bigger savings in rural areas where fares have dropped by almost 11%.
