Big home & contents insurance increase

[Astrid]

Ours is up a little bit, I think about $50. Which is surprising as we live where Ash Wednesday went through here.

Our company does this every year.

And every year I go back to their website and put in my details like I am a new customer and I come back wiht a much lower quote and then ring them and tell them that I will only be paying the lower quote and they agree every time. DH gets a massive discount because he has been with them forever but it annoys me so much that they just assume because we have been with them forever that they can make massive charge increases.

There is no way that your quote should go up 50% because of a weather prediction.

That's incredible!

oh wow, I can't believe how much it went up for you!

Each year, ours goes up, and each year we ring them and say we're not paying that, what's your best price, and they knock so much $$$ down without hesitation.
