Oh well, time for the annual insurance renewal game.
Had an e-mail today from my insurance company, the one that employs Nelson, asking me to check my details for my multicar policy and if there are no changes to be made not to worry and they'll auto renew.....
Checked details all OK and saw that they were quoting £319, thought that's not bad it was £385 last year.
SWMBO then noticed that this was for just the one car and that they wanted £238 for the second car a total of £557 against the £385 last year; nice little hike of £172!
Promptly did my usual trick of becoming a new customer for a quote and, miraculously, I can get the same cover, etc. for a very much nicer figure of £316, £69 LESS than last year.
Have made a note of the quote reference and they'll get one crack at honouring it tomorrow, if this evenings little trawl round the comparison sites doesn't come back with something better......
I know it's the usual yearly game we have to play but why insurance companies insist on this charade every year escapes me, I suppose they must just make enough out of the gullible ones who just auto renew year on year...
