Car Insurance - now I know why they call it Confused.com
« on: April 01, 2013, 09:43:57 AM »
Renewal is due on my Zafira on Thursday.
I've had the renewal quote from my current insurer
£240
so I thought let's go and visit those nice Meerkat chappies and see if I can get it cheaper.
New Quote £130.
Is it the same standard of cover?
Ought to be IT'S FROM THE SAME B100DY COMPANY!!!!
Ok let's ring them.
Quote ' No sorry sir we can't match that price because there's online discounts in there,  best we can do is £210.
ok so I just cancel this renewal and take out the new online policy.
"oh no you can't do that because our system would think you are insuring the same car twice and refuse the renewal"
WTF!!!!
Well congratulations well known High Street retailer's banking arm. Because you've got such a stupid system you just cost yourself the business.
Gone with Hastings Direct at £137 instead.
