Go compare
Not very impressed with Go Compare website. Couldn't get past the quote stage as although the accident wasn't my fault and the other person drove off I wasn't able to recover my costs, that option isn't available. Also because the accident has only just happened I don't know the cost of the repairs, that option isn't…

I recently cancelled a policy with them and wrote a letter of complaint to their head office on the 19th July. I received a letter confirming…

Insurance or assurance - is there a difference?
You really don't want to read this... Insurance or assurance - a quite vital point, I think we can all agree. The distinction that some seek to draw is that it is life "assurance" as we are "assured" to die, the only doubt relates to timing, but property "insurance" as there is doubt not just about the timing of a loss but…
