It's come round to that time of year again, I have my 2 cars and house insurance with 1 company - but they've decided to ramp up my renewal by more than £250. So I've started looking around.
For my 2 cars Moneysupermarket quoted the cheapest being with Hastings under a multicar deal and quoted me around £700. I continued to shop around, then went back to check that again the next day and this time it suddenly comes in at over £800. So I start shopping round some more, and the next day again I think I'll check again with Hasting's and see what happens this time - the quote is now nearly at £900!!
I know the quotes are only valid for 24hrs or something, and the first deal I should have taken - but it just seems ridiculous that they keep putting this up and up. I'm tempted to keep checking every day and see how high they can get it .
Is there any way they can tell I'm shopping round, and so decide to keep putting the price up in the hope I'll make the decision "Quick, I must go with them before it gets any higher"!! ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.

Well I've been doing it through a private browser window but of course they'll tie it together through reg's and email address.
Insurance is just a crazy business, hate them with a passion. I'll try it again without the reg's and a different email address and see what happens, though I'm guessing they can tie it together via the home address too . ____________________ Previous: Aprilia Habana Retro 50cc (beauty), Yamaha SR125 (fell apart), Honda XR125 (nippy little commuter), Honda SLR650 (Geewhizz), Yamaha Diversion 900S (Smoooooth) written off courtesy of a stupid escaped horse.

I got a significantly increased quote from AA this year, so I called them and spoe to an actual human, in England (or perhaps itr was Wales)
After altering allowable miles I eveantually got a reduction.
