Tell them you've seen a lot of negative feedback about the 12v battery failing in Atto 3s, and given your distance from the service centre that you want some reassurance you'll be able to have the battery replaced locally if requ...

Call Allianz first and say you're not going to pay that. See what they come back with. Most insurers will drop their initial price. Ask for that new price in writing (eg an email with a link to pay the new amount), then shop around. A lot of them with have online discounts and you may be able to go ...

For me they bundled in multiple sets of replacement tires which was unnecessary. I'd check and make sure they're only including 1 set of replacement tyres 👍
