The motor insurer swiftcover.com has launched a service which will offer consumers car insurance quotes through their mobile phone internet connection .
The service is the first of its kind and will allow people to get an instant quote when a computer is not available nearby, such as when they are comparing cars at a second hand car dealer, or even when they are travelling and want to make use of their spare time. Customers will be able to access the mobile site 24 hours a day and by filling in a simple form, they will get a no-obligation quote in less than 60 seconds.
Tina Shortle, marketing director at swiftcover.com, said, “Our aim is to make car insurance as easy, simple and convenient as possible. By harnessing the next generation of mobile internet technology, we’re enabling people to get the facts at their fingertips and shortening the time and hassle of car insurance quotations .”
