I usually let mine renew automatically on Direct Debit, but this year I decided to have a hunt around. The upshot was that I found I could get virtually the same cover for £220 as opposed to the £540 my existing company wanted. I rang them and they found the same cover with a different Insurance Co for £396, which I would have probably taken had I not looked at the comparison website. I rang the £220 quote firm and they confirmed my cover for £217, so I bought it. Rang the existing Broker and asked them to cancel my direct debit. No argument - they transferred me to their "non-renewal" department, who were totally pleasant to deal with - they must have had a lot of practice. Being a loyal person, I shall probably stay with the new Co for 2/3 years, and then check again, unless the cost goes astronomic.
IT PAYS TO CHECK!
