i have been driving 1 and a half years now.. on insurance sites when it asks how long you have been driving and it only gives the options 1 2 3 years etc... well do i put 1 year or 2? i dont think its fair to be honest, i know alot of insurance companys ask how long in years and months but still. if i select 2 years driving experience i get about £150 - £200 knocked off the premium.

Dont think they will let you round up, only round down. They could bite you right in the arse for that if you crash.

Still have to put 1 year as you would be lying if you said 2. Even if you were only a month away you have to put 1.
It should drop once you reach 2 years

I think F is the worst possible. It's certainly at the lower end of the scale.

i was with liverpool victoria at first for 1100 with my mum as the main driver, then they renewed it to 1600 lol.. admiral dont give me a good quote either. i have been asking people what they would put for how many years driving and some 1 said, what if you havnt been driving a year and it only gives you the option from 1 year +. i dont know if thats true or not
