HI all just wondering what everyone does when it come to upgrading or renewing insurance policies
switching to an insurer is so easy these days too!
If you're price focused then it is, but its not so easy if you actually know what you want cover for and read the small print and find out whats excluded on some cheaper policies.
I have been with Direct Line for years and it always went up. Only by say 2% or so. Last year I started to look in Go Compare as I want a new Meerkat A few weeks later my renewal came in and got a discount to match the cheapest on the meerkat site. Direct line say they don't use comparison sites but I am sure the monitor them. Ill be doing the same this year to see if it happens again.
They'll probably monitor general competition, all company's regardless of business type normally do this, but you've got to remember there is normally a good reason they're not on aggregator websites, for the same reason some other companies aren't also.
