    Yep you just cancel the direct debit as there is no obligation to keep paying the payments - your cover just stops.

    So can I take the cover make 3/4 monthly payments of £5 or so get my £43 Quidco and £100 from Post office then cancel the policy? so about £20 in payments and £143 in cashback = £123 profit
    Is this correct or is there a catch?:rotfl:

    Was just about to ask the same.
    Apart from the fact that they "reserve the right to withdraw the offer without notice at any time" - but surely if they did that it would cause an uproar.

    Surely even if you don't get the £100 - quidco etc is £43, less 3 payments of £5 still leaves £28 profit!

    Worth a punt.....

    Won't be there long.........:beer:

    you can choose your own premium ie specify £5 so worst case is you could pay for a few months and not get your £100 but still get the £43 and still make a few quid and if it didn't track you can cancel policy in 1st 30 days and get back your premium.
    I think when they say they can withdraw offer it means before the 15th of Aug which is when they state offer ends. Prob only want to give say 3,000 promotional policies and if 3,000 sign up before 15th they will end early.

    Worry's me that fact they can withdraw at anytime!!

    Also for my current life insurance i had to have a medical, if this is the case i very much doubt it'll be as cheap as £5 per month
