@Barny52 They're supposed to be stopping new customers getting better deals. My current insurer was mid-range in price.

@Fluffybull yes supposedly stopped years ago but I鈥檓 not sure, why can i change and get a better deal ??

Way to do your research 馃憤

How is that possible ? Seems like it should be more regulated if it is ....

@BobbyMoeven A bit mad. I had read that with inflation etc car insurance premiums here may go up by as much as 40% but why such a difference between insurers? 馃し

@Fluffybull

Its infuriating on both levels ...

How is 40% a reasonable hike ?

How is charging 350% above the cost for essentially the same product legal and just ... Especially for something that's a necessity for many .

@BobbyMoeven I think insurers (and this includes house insurance) justify rises from last year coz of increase in parts/labour/electricity etc. My hubby's a builder and he's seen increase in building/roofing materials etc. But I think some companies are just taking the p**s, tbh.

@Gangstress It's ridiculous! AA was best, Churchill worst! I think Churchill must be posh person's company lol 馃槀 He sounded like he came from Surrey 馃槀 Said "is price your most important factor in car insurance?" I felt like saying "No, no! I'm just in it for the 拢10 Waitrose gift voucher!" 馃槅馃槈馃ぃ

@Gangstress I think their customer must be 83 year old colonels with a 1944 Rolls that they only take out to the golf course on a Sunday 馃槅馃槀馃槈
