Compare car insurance quotes from more than 130 insurers Traumatic and costly Kevin Pratt, insurance expert at MoneySuperMarket, said: "Being involved in an accident, no matter how minor, or whether you're at fault or not, can be a traumatic and costly experience. Our research shows the average claim value for an 'at fault' accident is nearly £3,000, and claiming for either 'not at fault' or 'at fault' accidents will drive up annual premiums, typically adding around £33 on average." He added: "Even if your name doesn't feature in the top 20 name claims list, if you've had to make a claim on your insurance, it makes it even more vital to shop around for the best deal on your cover at renewal. Insurers all have different ways of pricing based on risk and some might be more lenient than others, especially to win your business." The top 20 name claims list 1. Duncan 19.5%, Charlie 22.8% 2.
