car insurance

Glad for you, goes to prove 'if you don't ask you don't get.

I know what you mean about nearly not renewing, I felt just the same till I realised they all do it.

I've just had a shock I can't get my head round

Last year I sold my euro 4 engine van for a cleaner more fuel efficient euro 6 model the result road tax up from £140 to £250

Is that because of the "New Vehicle" Bonus tax you get to pay?

Direct Line own Churchill

I didn't know that, I switched from DL because Churchill were cheaper. I wonder why they appear to compete against each other?

Presumably they are marketed at slightly different people; or to give you the illusion of choice while keeping customers from their real competitors

I’m currently with DL, but after appalling service, on my first claim in 28 years, I shall be moving ASAP

Frankly, I think all insurers are daylight robbers

It's the same with broadband. BT own Plusnet.

And seed companies.

You think you have a lot of choice, but actually in a lot of things, one company owns several "competitors".
