It's like a taxi driver taking you 10 miles the wrong way then wanting a pat on the back 500 yards after turning around and heading in the correct direction.
Mate 1: "Mate, I've won £100 on a bet builder this weekend. Drinks on me!"

Car insurance is up for renewal next month. Currently with Hastings and paid £1,061 last year even though i having 8 years ncd and 3 more years of driving a motability car prior. 11 years of no accidents or claims and one speeding fine 4 years ago.

Got my renewal quote for £1,700, checked the same cover with Hastings and it was £1,300 on a comparison site. Called them up and haggled and they brought it down to £1,080.

They can give all the soundbites they want about premiums increasing across the board but this shows the increase in their opportunistic profiteering practices.
Got my cheapest quote of £960 from Admiral. Called to proceed. They checked the external database and said there was a claim from 3 years ago and they needed information.

I couldn't remember this so got the information from previous insurer. It was a notification that someone bumped my car while it was parked in the street, no one was in my car, no claim made by me and the other persons insurance fixed the bodywork damage.

Sent this to Admiral and now they are quoting me £1,140 based on the notification as my stationary car being crashed into makes me more of a risk.

Insurance really is a broken system.

And I think that particular corpo gets at least an additional 50 quid subsidy per customer from central gov on top of everything else.
 
Up there with my favourite forum beatdowns.

They were a chain. They are now a supplier. @Jimishorts couldn't get past the first paragraph on wiki. Limited attention spell I'd imagine.


"In what was described as a temporary measure, all the company's shops closed in March 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.[11] In the last quarter of that year, Samworth decided to close the shops permanently as they were "unviable".[12] The brand continues to be sold through other retailers at locations including motorway service stations[13] and railway stations."

Mr.White for the win.
Forum cred in tatters after Cornish pasty faux pas.
