I had exactly the same problem with Churchill last year. Despite my 3rd year bonus it jumped up by £200! After much digigng AXA were triumphant and I saved £300 over staying with Churchill who wouldn't budge on price saying they were hard hit by new guidelines etc etc. Good customer service so far from AXA and my cover includes lost keys as well. I never intended to leave Churchill because I was always happy with their customer service and prompt payout when a Focus I had was written off in 2006 but I could not afford the price jump. Give AXA a try LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby LOT (Lord of Time) - University of Gallifrey |

I've been insured with "More than" for several years. When they offered my latest renewal there was a 33% price hike. I called them, asked for an explanation, and got the expected broad justifications. Haggling politely resulted in just a modest and acceptable increase, so I stayed with them. Life is not a dress rehearsal! |

Have been with LV for a few years now but always shop around. Year on year they have been the cheeps and with best cover. Due to some voluntary work i do I enquired about what would happen if I had covert blues and twos fitted in order to be tasked to emergencies by ambulance trust - reply was after a few minutes checking "as long as the responding is in voluntary there is no change to premium". I am 41 year old with full licence etc living in east anglia - can't fault them... |

Insurance companies run crazy sales schemes! Although not for car insurance... When I renewed my house insurance the company upped the premium by around a third. I checked the comparison sites and the same company came in at the old price for the same insurance. I rang them and they were not able to reduce their price to meet their advertised web price. End game - cancelled insurance and re-brought it through the web and I assume they paid the commission to the comparision site! CRAZY.

I was with More Than for a number of years but they messed up when a woman ran into the back of me. I lost most of my no claims bonus even though they said i wouldnt because it was protected and it was down as 'no fault' for me. They kept saying that they would send me new paperwork with the correct NCB on and they never did.
