Your right there never take a renewal quote without checking comparisons web sites and then haggle with your current company and that goes for phone/ broadband/tv/breakdown/gas/electric usually you get a happy result :D

No loyalty these days, never just accept the renewal, 9 times out of 10 you will get it online cheaper, even from your insurance :shock: :lol:

CHEAPEST ISN'T ALWAYS BEST
USUALLY THE CHEAPER THEY ARE THE MORE THE EXCESS COSTS

Most of my renewals I have had the same excess with a higher excess it’s a gamble if you don’t have a clam you gain if you don’t clam

Yep, I used them for the Connect, cheapest by far and didn’t take the piss at renewal time, so they kept the business.

My tourneo custom insurance renewal doubled. Changed 13 plate tourneo custom to 68 plate newer model. 270 to 670. They say its a minibus but last one was a car on comparison sites but now none of them would quote. Got it down to 470 but still gutted. Hoping this sorts itself for next year. Any others experiencing this problem. The car that thinks it's a van or vice versa. A confused vehicle.
